NBCC road trip
Hi Guys
Went on my first road trip with my TD and the NBCC(Nashville British Car Club. I hooked up with them about half way and finished at Jim Henys shop in middle TN. Jim is a dying breed of auto restorers. He moved here resently from PA to avoid high taxes and cost of living. In Jim's shop were two million dollar Packard boat-tails, a Rolls, Aston Martin DB8, 31 Studebaker and a bunch more waiting in the back room to include a super rare Minerva in a thousand pieces that's the size of a Mac truck. All those old cars are huge. The Stude is the dark red one in the attached pics, one of only 100 made so they could enter the 1931 Indianapolis 500. They endered six cars and all six finished in the top ten. This car has been in Jim's shop sense 1991 and has been waiting for the correct engine for seventeen years. The engine was located last year so the car will be done this year. I have a bunch a pics of the cars in the shop, but I guess I can only attach four per post. I will post more pics when I get a chace THE NBCC cars 1937 MG TA Riley |
