Default Re: 1961 Chevy Belair Sport Coupe Race Car

More stories will be forthcoming as I get to know the new (old) owner.
For 23 years I've been sitting on this car, with plans to bring it back to the track, and the whole time I've been searching for it's history. Only today, when it left, did I learn that it's going back to it's original racer/owner.
I couldn't be more sad and happy at the same time. I just don't know how to express the feelings. He has his car back. I can only imagine how I would feel. I will do everything I can to help him bring this car back to the way he raced it.
Even though this car is certainly not aligned with the main topic of this site, I know there are many guys here who have those undescrible juices flowing in their veins and many of you truly understand what has just happened.
