What a car. He is a very talented fabricator. Wish I had more time to spend gawking at his art work.

His wagon was amazing. Does he still favor it over other rides for his daily driving, or has he found a new love?

Some say he could exercise longer then Richard Simmons... all we know is, he's called the Stig.
Some say that the outline of his left nipple is exactly the same shape as the Nürburgring, and that if you give him a really important job to do, he'll skive off and play croquet... all we know is, he's called the Stig.
Some say that he's terrified of ducks, and that there's an airport in Russia named after him... all we know is, he's called the Stig.
Some say that his first name really is "The," and that if he went on Celebrity Love Island, they'd all be pregnant, including the cameramen... all we know is, he's called the Stig.
Some say he isn't machine washable, and all his potted plants are called Steve... all we know is, he's called the Stig.

Pictures are here......
First off, Gerry may not be the Stig, but I think he may have built the Stigs car for him..... He claims his picture will not show up on a camera or his image in a mirror.
I assure you he is real and a nice guy. My co-worked dropped me at his place. We first did a quick once over on the wagon (could have been there all night asking questions).
Proof below that I was actually there.
As you all know this car is art work on wheels. His handy work is some of the finest I have ever seen. Note the line locks.
John note the PS reservoir location for the LS7 Vette. I REALLY like the hose clamps, might do this on the Impala.
The brains.......... and the 91-93 washer tank for clearance.
Fuse panel had to be moved a bit to relate the wiper motor.
The artistry continues under the car........
A fuel pump to follow the Walbro 255 he has in the tank. Hand made as you might guess.
Yes that is a carbon fiber drive-shaft.
Battery relocation, John take note!!
Then we were off the the race shop. Gerry works on a buddy's race team. The Berretta race car was yet another work of art by Gerry.
I cannot believe I did not get a good shot of the race car, but here it is in the background of one of the Fords his buddy has (he is a Ford dealer afterall).
More exhaust artwork, why yes that is a V-6.
Hand reconstructed valve covers.
Hand made linkage.
Interesting VIN number on the Mustang (5 of 6 in Canada). Not this was the not the red one in the first mustang picture. This one was the newer body style (sorry to full pics).
Hope you all enjoyed the pictures, I know I enjoyed meeting Gerry and taking them. FTIW, he does not wear a cape or fly.....

Thanks for sharing. He is a lucky guy as he obviously enjoys his work!
I was going to say something about the stock 6x9s in the wagon, but the real music comes from under the hood so who cares.

Response from Gerry..... ********************************************************
Hi , Tim Pictures of the Beretta at Somoma this June
The Boss "S" serial number shows it as "5th" built in the run I will check the total numbers but think it was in the teens
The Canada deal was the 2000 Cobra R 300 built, handful in Canada but were designated "not for highway use" because they did not , at the time, conform to transport Canada regs
The wagon, fuel make up tank , although changes were made, it is an innovative engineering part
Tough crowd at the forum Rust on heat shield, stock rear speakers !!
Heat shield and bottom of car was done 5 rainy years ago Lucky Sprocket didn't see the 8 track in my Cutlass
No problem on my name, not like you called me Walter
*************** Sorry about butchering you name...... BTW check out the post on the wagon forum.
