Brad: I cannot tell you how much joy you have brought to us TACA members to read how much you are enjoying your three great cars. We are a very unusual marque club in that a very few members still have not seen a Tucker car in person, many have never ridden in a Tucker car, most have never driven a Tucker car, and very few have ever owned a Tucker car. We do not have personal experiences with a Tucker car as we do with more common collector cars- our experiences are gained only when owners of Tucker cars allow us to see and experience their cars.
You have three cars with great history- all three cars over time had at least one owner that allowed us to experience their respective car. Our collective fear has been that Tucker cars would end up mostly being with anonymous personal or institutional owners. That these three Tucker cars ended up with an obvious car enthusiast willing to talk about and show us the cars is very exciting. How amazing that with so few cars made and costs of the cars being so high today that we would have two great individuals, you and Dave Camamack, each owning and sharing with us three beautiful Tucker cars. Thank you. You have our deep respect and friendship.
