Doesn't happen very often.
On Sunday I attended the Milwaukee Masterpiece Concours where I saw Mark Green from Indiana, aka Friskysport, who was exhibiting, well, his Friskysport. Built in my home town of Wolverhampton in England, at the Henry Meadows plant, the Frisky project was worked on by my father who was apprenticed there at the time. Mark had told me that he would be there so I made a point of going.
These cars are unbelievably tiny, Mark being good enough to invite me to sit in his. I am not large, yet it was a struggle to get in and an even bigger effort to get out. Forget dignity, getting in and out of one of these is an exercise in contortion.
It was a good day, and I enjoyed talking to Mark for a while. He's a really nice guy, and is very knowledgeable about these little things. The amount of co-operation and mutual assistance within the Frisky club is astounding, with parts and badges being remanufactured by individuals within the club, in order to preserve those that are left. Mark makes his own parts and even badges, the extras of which he will sell to or barter with fellow members worldwide! He knows everyone who owns on of these, as is about to travel to the UK in a couple of weeks to stay with John Meadows, who was involved at the factory and is the chairman of the Frisky Club!
