The Speed Shop in Strong City

I went back to Chase County, Kansas to revisit my favorite speed shop, S.E. Schroer & Co, in downtown Strong City,  heart of the Flint Hills. The Plymouth and the 5-window roadster were featured in a post last week. This week I heard them fire up and saw Señor Schroer hurtling around town in the roadster, which is a speed machine. He is a man with a powerful aesthetic, which you see in his cars and in his shop, where there are some intriguing works-in-progress. Man, I wish I was driving the Plymouth back to Maine...



the handle looks it it out to bring the jet thrusters on-line, but it's a reverse lock-out.
