F1's

A video put together by a good friend of mine who has two F1's, the first is his 51 and the second his 50. He is rebuilding the 50 after a terrible accident when somebody cut him off at high speed over a year ago. He does really well for a guy in his late 60's with Parkinsons. Just thought somebody else might enjoy this video he sent me today.

I usually am not a fan of Dove Grey, but that truck looks great! Hard to believe he hit a wall at 80 and only had that much damage? or is that all that's left??

He's doing well for a guy of any age. I was thinking the same thing as Ross as far as the amount of damage, can you imagine a new truck hitting a wall at 80mph? PS nice video.

The wreck was several years ago, not sure how much damage there was or how extensive, but he has slowly been rebuilding it since. The amazing thing is that he didn't get hurt. He also races cars and has a Cobra, a tricked out 800HP 5.0L Fox body mustang only for racing, a new Shelby 500, an old Boss 351 Mustang, and several other projects.

I should have recognized that right away since I have a '52...
