Hi Daniel,

Knute Kohlmann in Redwood City (near San Francisco), California @
650-365-9295.  I can't remember the name of his shop, but I've known him for
years and watched him work.  He usually does one-of-a-kind Italian cars
(Siata 8vs, special bodied Maseratis, Alfas, pre-war Nardi, etc).  Seems
like every year he does one or two cars and usually they win at Pebble
Beach.  He's quite familiar to fabrication.

Best,

Clark
