The last known owner according to recent rosters was Art Eller from Los 
Angeles.  Norm Helmkay probably has a record of the coach and other 
previous owners.

Opinions vary, but many consider a 110 engine with the 889 cam the best 
choice for an Ultra.  Jim Davis, on the other hand, is quite knowledgeable 
and swears by his 140.  The very first Ultra had an 80. <grin>
