Hey, that's my neighbor in the Yellow Coupe. His first Power Tour, and he just told me he would do it again in a Heartbeat. He said he looked for you just to say Hi but never could find you. He found Gary's and Mark's Biscaynes but never did find your Chevelles.
One of the guys in his 'pack' was Brian Rudolph from Godfrey, IL, the winner of one of the Crate Motors.

I tried to post something earlier but the 'puter had a mind of it's own so I'll try to say it again.

Ken, a couple of big https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif for documenting the trip for all of us who couldn't be there.

Thanks to Charley and Ken, it was a great week. 2,495 miles and only a few (relative) minor issues to deal with.
