It was wrecked by a drunk in a white XKE while sitting in the driveway when I was nine years old. Put it back together using another old Pasadena hot rod one of the old man's friends rescued from a wrecking yard for $25 years before. Not much to look at, but a whole lot of history there.

Anyway, be sure to stay with the video until about half way through when the going gets pretty interesting way up in the San Gabriel mountains. These guys really get it!
