Feature Page - Restoration of the Bob Knoll #9
This restored Bob Knoll super was unveiled at the 1999 Hy-Miler in Sandusky. Randy Mapus from Castalia Ohio did this beautiful restoration job. Randy is a member of VARC, "Vintage American Race Cars" an Ohio based vintage "exhibition" group. Photo by Butch Van Dyke. If you have any old pictures of this car or other information, we would love to add it to this page. Please send them in to RetroRockets and for pictures, please include a description, if possible. |
Photos by Jane Mapus. The old super as Randy found it. On the trailer, tires on, vegetation growing around and through the chassis. |
Makes a pretty nice planter! The perfect gift for that supermodifed fan in your family. |
A tree literally growing up through the trailer and chassis. |
Randy couldn't believe when he cut the growth back and the tires were in great shape. |
Ah, sweet success. After cutting his way in, Randy gets a shot at sitting in the old super. |
