You either have business there, or you don't. He has an open house once a hear for charity. Other than that, its his personal garage/shop. No different that Leno's.
The Peterson is a museum. The Henry Ford is a museum.

You owe yourself a trip to The Henry Ford.
I spent 2 full days in there and could done another, and Greenfield Village wasn't open. Throw in the River Rouge tour, and that's another day.

:thumb: It's on my list...

You owe it yourself just to go see the ONLY successful SOHC car EVER built, and the ONLY SOHC powered car worthy of being in the Henry Ford. It sits right next to a GT 40 from the last Lemans victory, which surprisingly ISN'T powered by a SOHC. :omg::signhuh: :yikes::wtf: I guess they didn't bother to get your opinion on the BEST engine to use. Maybe WINNING was more important than the BLING factor.

No, but if you can burn a copy I will buy it. I have a couple other things I want to get from you too. And I have a copy of "Its a Bikini World" I was going to give you. I don't have the means, but maybe you could edit the parts in it and post it on You Tube,
