Brings a tear to my eye every time I watch this video, this was a real race car to me when I was a kid and it is now as I approach 65 years old, the modern stuff is impressive for sure but lack that personal soul of a car like the "Surfers" and others of the period.
Bob, A big thanks are in order for building your car. A piece of history !!. Been watching Bills vids for years with Ricky, then the Surfers started and watched them all. Great job all of you did for the rest of us. I'm finishing my mid 60s fed, will run exhibition here on the east coast. Sad when I got the call about Tom. Keep the vids coming !! PS. I've got great neighbors as well.
That was simply AWESOME !!!!!!!
Thank God for guys like Bob Higginson, and Bill Pitts, for documenting, and recreating these stories, and cars.SURF'S UP!!!

Love that nearly pure nitro sound & the reproduction of that winner . . All killer . No filler
Very nice run Bob!
A proper race car, outstanding Bob Higginson, you did the "Surfers" proud.

Thanks for keeping the memories alive.
Tarantino should do a movie about the Surfers and the Red Apple Motel. He likes So.Calif in the 60s he was there as a kid.
Love what you are doing Bill I love the whole surfer's story..
You must have some cool neighbors.
At the end of a rev,why does it stop running for a split second?
Congrats on a fine recreation. I know you will have loads of fun(& nitro) in the future.
Can you tell me where you live so I can be your new neighbor? I’ll bring beer 🍺
