Great pics! Looks like a great party!
FYI to the shop owner - If those coral colored eames chairs have a nylon rope molded into the resin around the edge, they're worth some bucks - $500 or so each.
Rope edge chairs were early production, manufactured by Zenith Plastics in Gardena, late 1940s - early 1950s. Zenith chairs have a logo decal on the bottom.
If no rope, it means they were made by Herman Miller in Michigan, Miller logo molded in on bottom. Maybe worth $100.
My guess is they're Miller production since they're on the later "H" base. These chairs have become modern classics. Of course, the rarity of early production chairs makes them much more valuable.
I spotted those NICE shop chairs already, when Scott and Dan did my clutch and chain tensioners last year!
A couple of weeks before that I got myself a sand colored rocking chair like that in Palm Springs, mine hasn't a rope - I thought that is a sign for a really early one without that (later added) improvement/reinforcement...
Just another sign of the speciality and good style of those guys shop!
Great guys & work there, too!!! Any time again!!!
I am hoping to find a shop at least half as trustworthy here in Germany!
Dan! Martini car looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it all finished in the meantime?
Sweet!!!
Dick! Another one...? Man...how should a talented but underpaid ; )))
car designer ever catch up...???? Holy smokes! That car is nice...CONGRATULATIONS!
Was it originally delivered without a ducktail??? I saw the pics of the other decklid in the trunk???
I would have a space in my new garage for you, next year...
Take it easy and all the best!!!
Well I'd love to sit here all day and look at photos of the R Gruppe meet at Dunkle Brothers but I gota do something important with my time and thats scrub my toilettes.
:D
:D

And, yes, it's a documented, original ducktail delete car with 60,000 km from new. It's almost a time-capsule car.
Dick,
Great to have lunch with you and Rob on Friday. Please post more photos of #125 as I missed seeing it on Saturday. Putting the original aluminum engine lid back on the car must be one your first projects. Very cool look.
Is the black 356 on the lift what I think it is? America Roadster?
Holy jumping bullfrogs! :eek:
:D
:D
:D
Yep! Yes sir Paul, a REAL aluminum bodied American Roadster, restored by John Wilhoit....
one SWEET and $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and RARE car....:D
