Juan, did you by chance see the Noble build line?

Several years ago I found the following scrawled on the backside of the passenger dashboard on my build #747:



A note to Ronnie Kruger confirmed that "Pierre Steyn" was part of the two-man build teams back in the earlier days (in this case, March 2000). Back then all Superformance roadsters were entirely hand built by dedicated two-man teams. Nowadays they use more of an assembly line technique, i.e. roll it to the next station. Ronnie went on to say that Pierre was still with the company but "was now working on the Noble line."

Just curious if you ran into this guy? Ronnie did tell me that the next time he was at the factory he would seek him out and tell him that a customer in the U.S. wanted to say "thank you" for building such a solid car.
