Go Stanley!
Did any of you catch the program "Rides" on TLC last night? It is an hour
long show about some great cars. Last night's episode featured Jay Leno's
resurrection of a 1935 Duesenburg X model. One of only 4 - all custom cars.
Would you believe he found it in an old lady's garage in Southern California.
It was stored in a window-less, pest and rodent-free garage, for 50 years ago
with 35K miles. Anyway that's not the point of this note...
While they were trying to get the Duesy going again they devoted quite a bit
of the show to Jay's collection of steam powered cars. Among them were several
Stanleys, Locomobiles and others plus the only Baker known to exist. The
Baker, built when most cars sold for a few hundred dollars, sold for $25,000
when new. I think I know why there was only one built.
Rides has featured Jay's collection a few times now. I highly recommend
catching this show if you can.
Cheers,
Carlos Cruz
