Default Re: Drake 40 Coupe Cancelled

I saw the prototypes several times at different shows. It sure was an ambitious project. It seemed to me they had all the pieces, probably could not get over the initial new product launch issues. When Ford built the first Model A bodies in 1928 they scrapped almost all of the first 100 built, learned from it and slowly improved from there . I guess Bob could not absorb that kind of a loss vs. cost.
Thanks Bob , I appreciate the effort
