VERY COOL!!!
I think we need to set up a group from up here in the northeast to escort Dwayne for the final leg from PA to CT.
Anyone else in?
Ed, I'd love to do work on the Holbert car. Please keep me in mind if you need someone to do any of the small jobs. I can clean and prep with the best of them.

That would be very cool!
by the way, is there a frame shop located that will have the lazer guided system that will start pulling this chassis apart?
Where do you start with something like this?

Great job guys, I hope the resto goes well.
An even better idea about a Salt Flats debut in 2012... That would definitely be a magazine article, make sure to take lots of pictures along the way, good luck....

Reconstituting the front fender from flattened beer cans wasn't really what was envisioned.
Good job on taking on the restoration of the Holbert car.

let me know if those images are ok ED...i think i scanned them to a PDF document also. They look good enough to read and print on here it seems.
I dont know where i picked up the manaul. Just one of those late night bidding things on Ebay many years ago...Hmmm, this is pretty rare I imagine. I dont think it is even on Jim Morhouses CDs !

With a new tub.......in my opinion any "escort" is more like a funeral procession This is the worst damaged 928 I have ever seen in person needs to be clipped from the rear seats FORWARD ! The roof is tweaked as well. Roll cage looks bent. Can it be fixed.....probably but you have to ask does it make any sense to cut parts off a straight chassis and try to weld them onto a repaired bent one ...then drive it 180 MPH. It might be well to confirm that a Euro chassis with no vin # on the right inner fender near the hood can be titled and registered in your home state before this project grows leggs. But that is just me I have little emotion when it comes to cars I only love what they can do , they are just machines. Harsh reality is that "production" car record was done with a cheater prototype running tweeked camshafts and none stock chips at a minimum.
