CANEPA DESIGNS TOUR

Along with some members of the Nob Hill Auto Club, I toured the Canepa Designs restoration shop/showroom/museum today in Scotts Valley, CA. There is some truely world class design and restoration work going on there. Bruce Canepa was a wonderful host and gave us a personal tour of the workshop, detailing the reconstruction of several cars scattered about the cavernous facility. The facility houses the ’87 Earnhardt Championship car, the ’70 and ’71 Penske/Donahue Javelins, Duesenberg chassis #1 (!!!!),  Indy roadsters, Pikes Peak cars, Can-Am cars, Hi-boy hotrods with Gurney Eagle motors, and on and on. Free of charge and worth the visit.

    Everytime I see that orange/yellow Z my heart skips a beat. The pictures of the back of that thing are outrageous. Tires are HUGE!
