I want to see more castle pics. I remember that place as being pretty cool. Especially the indoor pool.

Personally I liked the big outdoor pool!

The indoor version was just huge!

The bottom shot thru the water.... I'm surprised it turned out!

I liked the grounds around the main house better than the main house --- I like gardening so this stuff interests me.

The best part though -- was driving these on that road behind us in this pic!

Sounds like a great road trip Greg. :thumbsup:
That mansion, castle or whatever you want to call it, is unreal! I have relatives in San Jose, when I get out there next I want to see that thing in person.

And no pics of the shop and some wicked tube chassis work of art ????

You show me naked sculpture and farm animals - and no shop pics ????

That guys does REAL artwork and all we get is his head peeking out over the top of the Nomad....

Now I'm really disturbed Greg !


Love the pics of the drive and the Hurst castle. You'd have to sell a lot of shifters to pay for those pools...


:lol:

Jim --

I thought of the very same thing after reviewing my pics! I was like WTF! No shop photos! But... the couple things going on there were top secret skunkworks type stuff.

I will tell you this -- after actually seeing one of their tri-five frames -- I was really impressed! The actual rails are HUGE! No wonder they do so well at the races/autocrosses! There can't be ANY flex in the car whatsoever!

Love the HURST Castle! Someone needs to get some Hurst stickers and put them on the signs leading up there (I would never actually condone actions like that but it would be funny as all get out!). :cheers:

Catch ya in Columbus - and you better be packing those top secret pics mister !

His stuff is on my hero wall - I was stunned by the 928 porsche phaeton chassis he did back in the day - and the C2 chassis is beautiful work.

I found the ORIGINAL HURST shifter as used in Chariots during the Roman days....

No.... maybe next year. Somehow going there just isn't on my bucket list...
