Most of the body of the replica sprinter was made from gas pump skins including the belly pan which is made from a old bowser,even used gas pump bells as covers for the rear springs, steering wheel was cut from a buzz saw blade,wheels came off a old jaguar,rear tail is two 49 dodge fenders cut and welded together.Powered by a '28 Chevy and frame is '28 Chevy. This is Max and that is me in either Muncie or Ashtabula in 1982 or '83. Car was sold when pops had open heart and I will get this old girl back if it is the last thing I ever do smile. It is in Texas I believe at the current time. It is called the Hansen/Larsen Shadetree Special. If located you can have a arm or a leg, your choice smile. Good Day and hope you like it. Oh, and the hood is off a M&S 80

Thanks Roy, it was a bunch of fun. I got to meet alot of the old sprinters back then that unfortunately most have passed. Building this car in the old oil company shop taught me every word I know that curls the skin smile.....and my first experiences with scotch...when the old man wasn't looking.
