    Hear! Hear!

    Kudos to the real urban outlaw. Long before it was chic Rolly was doing his own thing. About time credit is given where credit is due.

    When I think So Cal 911 culture, I think Rolly. And the guy is the genuine deal: Every time I see him he always asks me how my dad is.



    Keep goin strong Rolly; we need your inspiration and knowledge.

    Thumbs up

    Couldn't agree more to what's already been said....

    Not only Porsches either....

    Years ago I went to the Father's Day L.A. Roadster Show at Pomona,. You walk through the swap meet to get to the show, and who was there selling some VERY cool and rare period hot rod parts (with an old Nardi wheel for good measure...)
    I said Rolly, "What'ch do'n here?" (dumn-ass question) He said, "I'm an old hot rod guy...from waaay back" ... Indeed he is

    When I finally made it over to Rolly's shop and the first thing I noticed was period steel bodied chopped 3 windowed '32 with'a period ARDUN head blown flatty on a stand next to it..........ROLLY....... THE REAL DEAL!!!

    I have never met Rolly but he nevertheless volunteered a helping hand with detailed information and parts that helped make the process of completing my (long winded) project car a pleasure. A true enthusiast and one of the E911S greats in my book. Nice to see another article recognizing his contributions to the Hobby.
