Did You Know...

During my interview with Bill Tritt, I asked him what material he used for the firewall on his Glasspar G2. Bill said wood. Wood, I replied? Isnt that flammable? Yep, Tritt replied with a chuckle….you think we might have chosen something different, but its what we used at the time, and it held up pretty well. (Note: Most fiberglass sports cars during the 1950s used wood firewalls. Not until the late 1950s was this material substituted with fiberglass or metal).
