This latest article took a lot longer to write than I anticipated. I hope you find it was worth the wait.

The Stutz Factory is still standing in Indianapolis.

Near downtown....it's HUGE.

I'll find a picture that I took of it about three weeks ago and post.

Great article Curtis!  Drew ran across a Clive Cussler book while at Winter Park earlier this week so the timing of the article is perfect!

By the way, I particularly liked the write up on the pink '36 Avions ;).

Saved the crowd favorite for last. Straight out of B.S. Levy's  "The Last Open Road".
