A couple more stories related to Long Lead/Short Lead Press shows at MPG:

My office mate (at the time) participated in the event on Black Lake. My involvement in the above was (a) making Dave Miller aware that such a thing existed, and (b) connecting him with some of the other participants.

Mr Miller was so dedicated to accurately reproducing the car that, when he found out the original car was a yellow vehicle painted orange, he found a yellow donor vehicle so that he could do the same.
