Still a car I have yet to see in person: the recreation of the Stutz Blackhawk. The car is a great piece of history and a fine example of metal shaping! Work done by
Jeb's Metal and
Tim Sutton really showing his skills and representing the car well!
Here's more on the original car...

This has got to be one of the coolest piece of metal work I have ever seen. I love all four skirted wheels. The sad part about Lockhart's death was it really could have been avoided if the team just took a little more time to check the tires and ultimately build a better driver protected compartment and safety belts. But it was the 1920's and safety was not even a concern then. Amazing.
