1995 Jack Hilton sells the 2 Avon bodies
to Dick Strever less chassis.
The decision is made to strip all parts to bare
metal,
find a donor car for running gear & misc. chassis
parts.
The bare metal shows just how much work will be
needed,
a 1939 3 1/2 ltr engine is found & a new chassis
is built
the following 6 years progress is shown below
