I bought one years ago and it broke in less than one year. Found a Ford one and had it rechromed.

Bob has been great for the hobby, I think he holds the record as one of the earliest, and only manufacturer of repro parts still in business, and as a major Sponsor of V8 Cub National Meets, he probably shares that record with Dennis Carpenter, RIP. I know I speak for many when I say we all appreciate Bob’s contribution to the hobby but are saddened by the business reversals he’s endured.
