Fellow FOT-ers,
I'm forced to admit failure in my attempt to get the Fornwalt project resur=
rected that I picked up from TRF a couple of years ago. Albert was kind eno=
ugh to pass it on to me for free as long as I promised to pursue finishing =
the car, and I would like to do the same for someone capable of finishing t=
he project.=C2=A0 All I ask is a chance to buy one of the bodies if you com=
plete the project.
If you don't remember the car, the pictures from its time at TRF (it has no=
t changed at all) are located in this directory:=C2=A0=C2=A0https://www.the=
-roadster-factory.com/Images/POTW/Fornwalt-Fibreglass/
For info purposes:--Mr. Fornwalt (I know some of you knew him well) was a T=
R4 vintage racer who wanted an Aston Martin DBR and decided to build his ow=
n body to fit a TR4 chassis.--The body buck (male form) was completed, and =
the molds (female form) have been done for the front end, doors and hood. T=
he rear was not started.--The buck is very high-quality work, done out of w=
ood and plaster, and is formed over a "junk" rolling TR4 frame with engine =
and transmission. I was told the components were worthless apart from sizin=
g but have not verified that. As the male buck was stored in the TRF wareho=
use for many years it has some very small, localized "bruises" that will ne=
ed to be smoothed out with body filler prior to creating the female rear mo=
ld.--Mr. Fornwalt's widow had no interest in the project after his untimely=
death and passed the project on to Charles at TRF.=C2=A0 After Charles' de=
ath, Albert was cleaning things up and offered it to interested parties -- =
and I was (and am) interested.=C2=A0 However, I have to face facts and I'm =
not going to get to it any time soon -- the TR6 street car, TR6 race car, I=
talia and my Hathaway Hunter are all ahead of it in line.
If you are interested, please contact me off-list at tr6driver@yahoo.com an=
d we can set up a phone call/face time.=C2=A0=C2=A0
Thanks,
