' would have liked to have seen that one.
I bought my 1958 Morris Minor 1000, for $ 80.00, from Beau Jones, a local hot-rod nutcase, who lived up Fallbrook Avenue from me.
He had a straight-eight Buick. What a 'hood-line' !
He 'let' us 'learn' pre-paint prep 'magic' working on his trophy-winning, burnt-orange, '32- T-bucket roadster. 'Sweat' tuition, that has paid dividends for decades.
Von Dutch was nearby in Calabasas, close to Miller Boats. We'd hike the wash from Burbank Boulevard, to the country store there. Eat giant $0.10 dill pickles, and chug root beer, while enveloped in the vapors of polyester resin and One-Shot enamel as they wafted over pre-pubescent nostrils.
It was cool to grow up around some of the 'Masters.'
