g503: Thanks for posting my story over on HAMB! Neat that one of the original builders posted a reply.

Mosport: The magazine with the Catallo Coupe on the cover is the July '61 Hot Rod.

Rita: Nice to see you posting again and thanks for the great photo of the coupe at the Motorama!

And that is one of the best albums of all time !!!

I was Googling "Clarence Catallo" this afternoon and found an NPR radio clip noting his death. The radio piece noted that when Brian Wilson saw the car on the cover of Hot Rod he sat down and wrote "Little Deuce Coupe." He then made sure the Catallo Coupe made it onto the album cover.

My 5-year old son LOVES "409." I put on the CD, crank it up, and the sound of those pipes rapping-out makes his eyes open wide, just as it did for all of us when we were kids.

Way cool! When your post title had "ebay story" in it I thought this was another story about a scam, someone getting burned, etc. Nice to hear good stuff for a change
