Gotta love it

Your SSR is unique Jeff. Please enjoy it to the max. I do expect to see you in Kingsburg.....

Life is good when you can go through it topless.

Regards,

Mike

Anything possible. Do a Google search for adapted driving aids, somewhere you'll find a place were you can have evaluation done on what type of aids that would work best for your girlfriend. Hope that helps.

Thanks she would like to drive never has. I am sure it would be no problem as the driver's insurance has to pay for anything her doctor deems as necessary for her.

When I met Jeff at the Camarillo airport during an autocross event with Art I saw this 89 rod he had, I knew INSTANTLY by how he gawked at our SSRs that he would eventually do this to an SSR.
This is definitely a "can do" kind of guy . Congratulations, Jeff. Looking forward to seeing your new ride at Kingsburg.

Quite a story Jeff. This is a story about how "doers" have no quit inside of them. Hope to meet you at Springfield this year.

The guys at AZ TPI did an awesome job of jamming 6 pounds of stuff in a 5 pound space. It took a lot of fine tweaking to get the turntable to fit without rubbing on stuff. There is so little space, that Jeff has to be careful which shoes he wears.

A lot of people would have given up on this a long time ago. I'm blessed to know Jeff and his incredibly positive attitude.

I can't say enough about this guy and his really special bride.



Mike

Jeff

I was wondering what the inside looked like with the adaption controls they made accessible for you Very

It's amazing how very compact everything is......but most importantly is your comfort!

How is the drive for you with the new controls?

Fabulous Article!!!!!

Thank you all for your kind words. Hopefully I’ll get to meet you all someday, somewhere soon

Mike right about the space & my only disappointment is I can’t (comfortably) wear my weekend New Balance 991 while driving.
(sorry XSELER8, but you’re not the only one with 991’s)
Guess this weekend I’ll go look at shoes and see it I can find something that doable for weekend drives.

Jeff,

Drop Rob (C1Trob) a note. He was talking about some driving shoes that have a nicely rounded heel. Hmmmmmmmm.......
