The Re-Birth of A Zeitler
I am approaching the final stages of my Zeitler restoration project. It's been over a year in the making, but loving every minute of it. Rollin Butler has lovingly rebuilt the engine using his magic talents. Hope you enjoy the photos of the "work-in-progress."

John Zeitler would be proud!
Brings back memories. I competed against many of these in the Northeast back in the 70's. Don't remember a z-bar though, most had a camber compensator under the trans. Looks awesome.
The real early model Zeitlers had a droop-limiter which was a wire cable that connected to the left and right axles over the rear engine bracket/mount.
Bob shared some photos of his Zeitler with me and all I can say is WOW! It is a work of Art. Great job Bob!
It's almost done. Getting ready for a shakedown run at Sebring hopefully in May. Then it's maiden race voyage with the SCCA Vintage group at Sebring in June.

Thank you for your kind comments. The headers were made by Roxanne Headers and designed after the original ones made by John Zeitler in 1969.
