"I LOVE MY CAR BECAUSE... it brings a smile to my face and many others' every time I drive it. It reminds me of an inspirational time in this country, a turbulent time, and a changing time. Many people stop me and comment how they remember watching this type of race car when they were kids in the '60s. Many others comment that it is their favorite car and wish they could build one. Little ones like it because it's red."
