This was one of the award winning cars that was built by SpeakerWorks out of Orange, CA. My current Audi was modelled after this car.
After Harry retired, he sold it to SpeakerWorks and then they used it as a shop demo car for 4-5 years. Afterwards, they sold it to a gentleman from TN.
I managed to buy it from Ryan and it is now being restored by Jeff Smith of Audio Designs of Atlanta.

Here are some pictures from before I picked it up and drove it down to TN.
