I did not realize that this car was being done at Reynolds Buick here in Southern California.  They are literally right down the street from where I live.  I will try to take a run over there this weekend, hopefully the weather will be nice, and I can take the GS.

Keith, the tribute car was built in Rhode Island at Jack Mancini's shop. The finishing touches were done when it arrived at Reynolds in Ca.  It's now on it's way back to the east coast.

Here's a short video on YouTube of Pete Reynolds' ride in the tribute car:

Walt - thanks for the info.  I'm really disappointed I didn't get a chance to see it while it was out here.  I guess I never put two and two together, and realized that Reynolds referred to the dealership out here.  Learn something new all the time.
