A Hemi 'vert would be nice, but the main thing, have him bring something(s) he will take to the track. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Yes the RS ZL1 was supposed to be at I think the reunion before last but did not go due to a transport mixup. We will get it there this year. Might even be good to drag race it once or twice.

How about filling up a couple of trucks and bringing a dirty dozen. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Are you chipping to help cover transport cost ? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

"You guys give input on what cars you want to see at the reunion and I will hound him."

Hound him to bring some of those lighted signs too. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Somehow I don't think transport costs are an issue for someone with that size of a collection, but I'll throw in a couple of bucks for gas money. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...arleySucks.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

How's this for bizarre timing: Twenty years ago this week is when I drove from Connecticut through a blizzard to Wisconsin to buy that hemicuda. I was the first one there with money in hand. Everyone else chickened out from the 2 feet of snow on the interstate. We had to shovel a path to get the car out of the garage and onto the trailer.

NJSteve, GREAT PIC!!!

Charley, that (dusk-blue?) RS ZL1 with the vinyl roof and added stripes and badges, were those dealer-added?

That car would be great to see at the reunion, so would the Yenko Nova - those would be my top two picks!

camarojoe 01-26-2006 08:07 AM

Re: Private Collection Pics...Worth a look...REALLY!
 
First off, the whole collection is mind boggling...

I'd love to see any of them at SCR, but if there's only gonna be one, definitely the blue ZL1... the green Nova has been to SCR, as well as the yellow ZL1. I've seen that blue car in a bunch of photos and publications but would love to see it up close and personal. A few passes at the track would be icing on the cake! Thanks for posting the great pics.

Charley Lillard 01-26-2006 08:13 AM

Re: Private Collection Pics...Worth a look...REALLY!
 
My understanding was the dealer added the stripes and emblems to add some flash to it in order to help it sell. Orig. paint and about 7000 miles.

Atleast he didnt say he DROVE it home in two feet of snow.

The only thing I can say about that collection is WOW! It is really diverse on what it has, and the RS-ZL1 is just too sweet, were there 2 or 3 RS ZL1's built? The Yenko Nova and Yenko Chevelle are out of the Randy Miller collection, correct? Thanks for the pics of some awesome muscle cars. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Charley, did Dave buy that Chevelle from Carlos Monteverde over here? I looked at that car when it first came for sale - I think he wanted $150 for it at the time - but I couldn't get my head around it. Would have made a nice match for my COPO car. I'm not unhappy I bought the ZL-1 instead though https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Yes the red Yenko Chevelle came from Carlos. There were two RS ZL1's built. Craig Jackson has the other one.

Anyone know the story on the Shelby KR-500? That car is a twin to the one the guy behind me owns/owned. Last I heard the car was still in storage (since the late 80's). I thought my neighbors had the aluminum wheels though, been so long I'm not sure. Anyone know where the car in the pictures came from?

I read that issue in AZ...does anyone realize that the Mustang in question belonged to Steve Davis and was a test mule for Ford's IRS suspension? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Hey, I see there's an article on the Miuras in that issue! . Any pics there you can post? . I've wanted a Miura 'S' since back when they were affordable. . Doesn't someone here have one....or more?? ~ Pete

Re: Private Collection Pics...Worth a look...REALLY!
 
The Miura is one of the most beautiful cars ever produced.....I'm a big fan.

Driving one is an absolute treat. The carbs are about two inches from your head and the straight cut gears, music to my ears. It feels like the cam bearings are mounted in your skull.

Re: Private Collection Pics...Worth a look...REALLY!
 
Every day for a previous job I used to go to a company in south Jersey. One lady's husband had a Miura. It is a neat looking car. She told me that her husband had it out somewhere and was driving at a crazy fast speed. He went past a cop and the cop either couldn't catch him or did not try to catch him. Sometime later the cop shows up at his house. The cop was not able to read the plate during the "chase" but he told the guy that he had had the only Miura in south Jersey so it was easy to find him.
