The car was introduced on the cover of European Car magazine in February 1992.
Elvira was then know by the license plate 1 SLIK6 . (now she blazes Classic Rod 0914 )
Dave Y. was the original owner/co-builder, (along with Carl Young). Richard F. was the 2nd owner for another 6 years.
Both campaigned in open road races, (Sliver State, Pony Express, La Carrera, Rally Acapulco).
I have been caretaker since 2005. I enjoy the car at PCA track events (instructor) and unsanctioned touring adventures.
Little else has changed - (with lots of biggrin.gif and a few first.gif along the way).
