It not only nurtures us but feeds our soul.” “We want to be reminded of our past through food. Reason: Corrected Gordon and Chris's KB Marauder number.Charlotte is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and as shiny new high-rises dot the skyline, Charlotte chefs are paying homage to the city’s Southern roots.Ĭody Suddreth, executive chef of The King’s Kitchen, says Southern cuisine reflects “the importance of cooking techniques and the food culture of Native Americans, African Americans and European settlers around Charlotte,” making Southern and soul food an integral part of Charlotte’s food history and identity.Ĭharlotte boasts a blend of new, modern Southern restaurants alongside barbecue joints, fried chicken shops, and meat-and-three restaurants that have been around for decades.Īccording to Matthew Krenz, executive chef and culinary director of The Asbury, while Charlotte is “still in the midst of establishing its identity,” Southern food continuously influences Charlotte’s culinary landscape. I don't know if there is a carbon fiber plaque on the intercooler on "MS" cars since I have never run into one (pardon the pun). Gordon and Chris have two (#5 and #7, I think, but someone please correct me).
In Los Angeles traffic, I'm a little paranoid about getting the back bumper whacked and totalling the car because of it. I have no idea how many 'survive.' Mine is still in the garage, under its little car cover, and comes out to play on rare weekends, or the occasional trip to Paso Robles. They were scattered all over the country, and a few in Europe. I recall seeing the records and reaching out to all the owners of all the cars Kenny converted back in 2010 to join Kenny at the 25th anniversary celebration of Kenny Brown Enterprises.
I believe (without going and looking all over the place for them and checking the records) that a total of 26 Marauders were built, each with a Vortech SQ-1 supercharger. After the first 10, the cars got a build plaque on the console in the order in which they were built. Kenny Brown signed each Signature Edition on a carbon fiber plaque on the intercooler of each car, in addition to the stamped build plaque on the console.Īfter all Signature Edition numbers were taken, Marauders were built as customers ordered them. For example, I reserved the #10 car in February 2003, but didn't get it delivered until May, because Ford hadn't yet started building the Silver Birch version (which leads to another long story about paint, but not for this post). The numbers were assigned when the car was ordered, even though it took a while to build.

Mac (both members of this Board) each owned the first one at one time. The first ten "Marauder S" cars Kenny built were designated "Signature Edition" cars and carried slightly different shop badging from the others on the build plaque ('MSE" instead of 'MS'), denoting "Marauder Signature Edition" (instead of "Marauder S").
