"I figure that
#491 is on the road at least once
per week in 40-45 weeks per year.
Sometimes it's only a 20 minute run
but usually this happens three to
four times per week. We use it like
a daily driver.
I always let children climb in and
get their picture taken. They need
to know that old cars can be friendly.
We had a great time at a RROC Inter
regional meet in Austin in 2011 in
#491."
