The restoration took exactly one year, as the Fleetline was purchased in November of 2009 and completed in November of 2010. We were able to shoot the car before it had even hit the streets or the shows. At press time, the Fleetline had taken first place at its first car show. We are sure it will take plenty more first place trophies. Michael wishes to give a special thanks to his wife, Jeanette, and his children, Angelique, Sierra, and Sunnie Girl. He also extends his thanks to Jason Bray and Ruben Cantoran for all of their help with the Fleetline restoration. n
