Kevin,
I thought of you as soon as I saw it. Please do what you can to bring this one back to life. It is a really cool early car.

That paint looks awesomely ratty; you should leave it as-is.

Does that right front wheel look like it might be hiding a broken ball joint to anybody else?

Yep - that what I figure. If the control arms had gone as parts, they wouldn't have put the wheel back on.
Should be pretty easy to turn it into a roller to get onto a trailer IMO.

^^^^ that's what I was thinking too. Kevin has an extra LBJ. He's the resourceful boy scout type.

Awesome - here's hoping you grab it Kevin and bring it back to life - Would love to see 3 early Minerva blues side by side by side at next year's Frenzy!

This one's more 'Minerva Beat' than 'Minerva Blue'.
