Thanks Phil!
Excellent! This picture is my first evidence that DEWEY actually existed.
Bill Ames and I became close friends in the 90s and then UNCLE JACK and I
became good friends of Robert Ames, Bill's son.
Bill and Dewey would be happy to know that the AMBRO will be featured in Geoff
Hacker's three volume book, FORGOTTEN FIBREGLASS.
I met with Geoff Hacker a few weeks ago when he and his partner Rick D'Louhy,
came to IOWA.
This will be a very comprehensive and exciting history of American ingenuity
in the development one off specials and low volume production cars.
Google FORGOTTEN FIBREGLASS and subscribe to Geoff's postings. He is
very prolific.
Regards,
Joe Alexander
