he hot rod world in which we live is an ever-rewarding place, I’ve met Robert Grieg in the past but I would never have said I know him. However, that has changed over the last week or so as I set about writing this feature. We chatted on the phone, emailed
each other, exchanged stories and, most importantly, laughed. If you ask me now, I would say that yes, I do know Robert Greig. During our last telephone conversation, he mentioned that he was beginning to detect a definite Scottish twang in my voice. So maybe
now, then, our newly found friendship has reached its peak. Seriously though, I now have an affinity with this man from Glasgow and respect the fact he has owned this ’31 Model A coupe since 2002. Only now he doesn’t, own it that is, but we’ll come to that later.
