My name is Bobby Nunes. I owned Pristine Auto Body in San Luis
Obispo for 40 years. I rebuilt "Leg Show" T in 1989. The original
"Leg Show" T was sold in the mid '70's, ended up in
Illinois in 1989. I crack myself up for jumping guys!!

TRADITIONAL. There's nothing more traditional than a BEAUTIFUL fully
polished Jag rear-end, twisting and shimmering in the wind from the
'60's and 70's. There were only a handful in the '60's. The
cornerstone has always been buggy springs-- Model A and Model T.
They didn't ride well or work well.
It was scheduled to go to
Oakland in 1994 and was in promoter's brochure for AMERICA'S MOST
BEAUTIFUL ROADSTER award. I decided not to go and the car looked
just as shown. Danny's "LEG SHOW" T was featured in ROD AND CUSTOM,
COVER CAR, January 1971.
IT HASN'T BEEN SEEN OR SHOWN SINCE THE 70's.

LIKE A VERY EXPENSIVE MOTORCYCLE, everything is either polished
stainless steel, aluminum, chrome, or brass--every bolt, nut, and
washer. Every part underneath car is exquisitely detailed to
absolute perfection. Words cannot describe the elegance and masterful
craftsmanship, precision machine work-- which was done by myself and
[MACHINISTS ] who helped on the construction of DIABLO CANYON
NUCLEAR POWER PLANT. |
