Thank you for posting.
If anyone likes Muntz Jets make plans to be in Branson, MO for the Ozark Trails 17th Orphan Car Show. We are going to be joined by the Muntz owner group. We expect 12-16 Muntz Jets to join us for the car show. And just to be different Tucker number 17 will also be there. The Show is Sept 7th and 8th.
Contact me for details.

Madman Muntz also used to bill electronics,thats where most of his money call. Back in the 50's he made one of the lowest priced TV's.
His secret? They would build the prototype, it would work well. Then he would go in and remove some parts like resistors or capacitors until the TV quit working,
and then he would put the last part back.
