Car collection - Need some help
Got an email from the honorary crew chief for Prescott’s entry in the Great Race. It is a video tour of Peter Prescott’s unusual car collection. He has just about every EV8 Ford Henry built, plus midgets, stock cars and unusual one off creations like a ’32 Victoria, and a ’40 Ford Ute. I am sure forum members would be interested in seeing it, but my problem is I do not know how to copy and paste the URL for the tour so it can be opened by clicking on it

Re: Car collection - Need some help
The business is in Gardiner. I’m not sure where PEP’s collection is. He also has a few Sportsman’s. There was a write up in the V8 Times a few months ago ..... Mark

Re: Car collection - Need some help
I would call EJ Prescott Co, and ask for the phone number for Adam at the garage. He runs the restoration shop for Peter. I would start there, and see where it goes. The collection is not open to the public.
I was at an antique truck show in Topsham Maine in the fall, and talking with a guy with a '41 pickup. Don't recall his name right off, but he helps Walt out in the shop frequently. He said Walt is suffering from some form of dementia and home strife. |

Re: Car collection - Need some help
The collection of cars is fantastic. The commercial nature of the Cruising New England video stinks and I will not watch their vids again.

Re: Car collection - Need some help
Pretty easy to skip through the ads. Worth it when I spotted a '48 Marmon-Herrington/Merc woodie at 6:26; looks like it might be the one from Sotheby's auction last year.
