Okay…
What’s the latest and most up to date info on Schlegel’s “Helzapoppin”…?
It’s been a while, hasn’t it…? What plans do you have for it now…?
I had hoped to see it at Island Dragway in October, but it didn’t get there…!
Maso still curious….

Attn: Bobby Schlegal…
Give us an up-date on the Hellzapoppin’ machine…
Have you been showing it…? any changes to it’s apprarance…? Did you find the right beer can…? Any magazine articles out there about it…? What’s up with it…? I wanted to see it at the Island Dragway event, but you didn’t come.
Maso
no changes, looks same when put away for the winter,
have the beer can can just see it on the picture from the reunion,
no magazines yet, waiting for a spot to do a complete photo shoot,
have 2 other photog’s that want to bring their stuff and play,
have a complete sun tach with mag black box ready to go on her,
Talked to darwin Doll got in for the York Nostalgia July event,
might be in the cackle event, see how that works out when I get there,
got mucho history on her at the yonkers raceway show & the nostalgia show at the valley,
even some guys who worked on her with Ron, and help put the TEST blown moter
into this chassis before the twin chassis with the better drive train arrived.
thanks for the interest,
Bobby S.
