Yeah, I’ve been in touch with him a few times over the past few years. No luck.
Thanks for the heads up!

Just found this found while looking for vintage photos of Norwood.

We have a restomod 1961 Impala that came from down South and we found out after the fact that it was bought new at Norwood Chevrolet.

Pretty cool that it came back to New England.

Correction,...he bought the 2nd Norwood Chevy, Mel Perry funny car, also named Super Hugger,....the blue one. What a barn find. The guy had it for about forty or more years, horded away in a packed garage covered with crap. Never moved. Pics to follow.
