The Story Behind This Car: My father bought it from a school teacher in Detroit and he was restoring it. He did most of the work on it and I did help a bit. He passed away in 1994, so my son and I finished it in his memory in 2000.
What’s so special about the Woodward Dream Cruise?: All of the people are great. It’s just fun to show kids these old cars and show them off to people.
