He has had it up for sale for a while, but never really advertised it. I know a few times there were some people looking around the $100k+ range, and now it looks like he wont even come close to that. I was really hoping he would be able to sell it to a museum or something.
The guy he got it from actually raced them and was about 90+ years old when my dad got it.
Everything about this car is crazy, you would have to be under 5'6" to really be able to race it, you need like 5 hands to drive it, awesome crank start, old school radiator that has a little thermometer on top?!?!, chevrolet brothers building a ford, shifting between your legs, 6 ft flame.
Amazing that this thing has lasted almost 90 years and some new cars crap out before 10.
