Barrett Jackson/Russo & Steele 2008 Friday pics
 
Okay...today I started out at Russo first...I met up with Ken and Paulette there...and then met up with Stefano and Sam Griffith, too! Sam pretty much stayed at Russo...in fact...he's probably still there! Sam has worked hard getting his pics for us! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I also briefly talked with Andy, too!

The first pics are of Tom Billigen's unconverted Yenko. The car looks killer...and I was able to meet Robin, too. I started talking to Tom after he was diagnosed with Leukemia...and he was taking some of the same medications as Holly...so I was able to answer some questions for him.

Then off to Barrett Jackson I went! Met up again with Ken and Paulette...and sat and watched the auction for awhile. I had to take care of a few 'requests'...so they are in here, too! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Bruce and I spent about a 1/2 hour talking to the guy that restored this Nova and he swears it was a numbers car.....But ...I'm glad I didn't stay till it went off as it went for more than I was willing to pay for it........Went off for $91,000.......But......It was the "Best" Nova I have ever seen.....SCW Quality....
Well..........Had a Ball with Bruce and Tommy K, met Sam and others.........But, we leave in the morning so I get to watch the balance on the Couch at home.....LOL

I think those girls are what they call "Auction Rentals". https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Bruce, as somebody who knows a little about barking dogs, here is something that you should put on your "must have" list for next year. This will save both your feet, and with a little camo and air freshener, a lot of time.

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...15/scooter.jpg

Seriously, I look forward to your pics, and showing us cars that we don't always see on Speed, with a little of your insight as well. Never Quit.

I saw that too. One was rubbing the "lower back" of one of her seatmates. They looked like 1950's stag-reel, hootchie mamas. Though, all I could think of when they were in that blue 71 cuda ragtop was "OMG they are going to bust those irreplacable convertible plastic interior side panels." https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif
