Howard Weinstein's Simoniz Special
(click the image to go back)
Howard saw and photographed the full-size car in 1999
at an SCCA-sponsored race car show in Gaithersburg, MD.
The owner, retired Navy fighter pilot and Maryland resident
Larry Pfitzenmaier, was thrilled by Howard's knowledge
of the car. He happily answered questions, and even invited
Howard to sit in the cockpit and snapped this picture.
Larry's car has appeared in official Indianapolis Motor
Speedway festivities, including parade laps at
the Brickyard and has won "Best in Class'
honors at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It is
one of the few genuine competition roadsters not in a
museum -- Larry drives it in vintage races as often as
he can.
