Eddie Bell and his friend Jay Skolnik visited Larry’s garage on this work day to check out all the projects that they had heard about from Mark Wing at breakfast that morning. Eddie is classic car collector and Jay enjoys modern, and very powerful, European cars. Being car guys, they were intrigued with Larry’s shop and the wide range of activities there. Larry gave Eddie and Jay, an electrical engineer, an explanation of how a Model T’s electrical system works. They also got to see the speedster collection, Larry’s 1938 Packard V12 Touring Cabriolet, and Larry’s Montana 500 car in progress.
Kirk Peterson and Mark Dominguez were troubleshooting and replacing a air valve on a wire wheel that was mounted on Buster, Kirk’s 2021 Montana 500 coupe.
Larry and Paul Duncan continued working on Don Neidigk’s 1926 Model T coupe. The chassis is almost complete, and attention will shift to the body.
