    This is one hellava story. And I don't think alot of people who take "sunroofs" for granted quite understand it's humble beginnings in the U.S.
    In the 1980/90's, ASC was considered something extraordinary amongst car guys on the streets.

    I've known Hank since the 80s along with his brother who owns Classic Design Concepts here in Mi. I knew their ASCMcClaren connection but never knew his life story . That doesn't surprise me as Hank is a very quiet guy who moved down to Florida decades ago. Heck I even bought a Mustang part off of him not knowing his Ebay handle. LOL

    Such an amazing build. Too bad Sandy Block isn't around to see this amazing piece of art. Might get around to pulling my 85 coupe out of the trailer. Will call up Hank for sure.

    Damn, I wonder if he could re-start the "T" top installations for modern Camaro's and Mustangs, etc. etc.

    We had asc nearby in southgate michigan. I always wanted an asc/mclaren capri. Owned a capri once but was only a 2.3 base model. Still a fun car

      Ronald, You're absolutely right, regardless of the model and engine, they are fun cars to drive!
