Not Ranked
I can not agree more with James' statements regarding his car. I have personally driven this car and can tell you it is one of the fastest best handling car you will ever find or drive. What is remarkable about this car is it can be taken out on the track or street and outperform virtually everything out there, then it can be taken not only to a local car show but to Autorama and win. Autorama is no little local car show. This is where people put hundreds of thousands of dollars into cars to win.
I have had 2 cobras and other hotrods and I have never had a car as nice or as competitive as James' coupe. I was told by a mechanic friend of mine many years ago, "it is not hard to build a show car (which he built many hundred thousand dollar + show cars) but to also make it a driver, is another story."
Beautifull car James' and sad to see it go.
