After looking at my post again I see that my wording was confusing, to say the least. Bill Francis clearly states that the owners consisted of a partnership comprised of Larry and Orville Dopps plus Dick Comstock.

Anyway, delighted to know that the car is in good shape and is well preserved.


Yes... and these are the very same 3 guys I mentioned who owned and restored the Request. Dick Comstock got some of the parts used in that restoration from me. Also, some of the photos in the magazines were taken at Richard's house (at that time) in Yakima, WA.

Again, I believe "Bill Francis" was a fictitious pen name and not a real person (I wrote for the same magazine at that time).
