Wow, yep that's my baby.  That was about 7-8 years ago, the little guy standing in the passenger seat is in 10th grade now.  Gotta get that puppy back on the road.

Cheers,

John

yeaah...uuhhhh....typical Rotus owner answer. you guys need ur own support group. Though I think Bob O's former car has stayed road worthy for most of its driving seasons.

That's how USA7s.com began! ;)

I think I can speak for many guys here ... If it weren't for ____ (family, job, commitments, other car work, etc.) my Rotus would be on the road! :cuss: :ack: :)

John: Can the car be ready by May 29th for Birmingham?

Does the 8 in "Rotus 8"refer to the # of kids clustered around the car:)?

John,

Just wondering if you know of a town called Coatesville and Harlan Drive as I grew up with a John Bowman who I lost contact with in the early 70's as he moved to the Atlanta area back then.

No, sorry I'm from NY 'riginally, been around the ATL for 20 years. My dad was from Chicago, my paternal GF was from Cleveland, beyound that the trail goes to somewhere in the Great White North.

Hi John,

Just though it would be quite a coincidence if you were the John Bowman that I grew up with as a kid. Good to know you anyway. :)
