CLASSIC CARS: 1913 Case Speedster | Features

When Dan Case leaves work as a quality engineer at Northrup-Grumman he goes to his home in Melbourne, Florida, where he enjoys his hobby of rebuilding and restoring antique automobiles.

In 1998, Case was told of an old car for sale in Orlando, but he was in the middle of several other projects at the time and definitely was not interested. However, he finally agreed to look at the relic because of its name: it was a 1913 Case Speedster.
