Jim Webbs Savage Debuts: Voted a gold trophy for contributing most to the automotive industry, was James Webb, 17, a Berkeley High School senior…Webb exhibited a fiberglass sports roadster which he made completely himself from the original mold. (The molds for this car, called the Savage, were later sold to Les Dawes of LaDawri Coachcraft who continued making bodies but changed the name from Savage to Centurion).
