----Not sure, Lee, but Al was as big a luminary as any of the mentioned former owners so I would be surprised if his name wasn't mentioned. Not aware of where Al's car resides today but he had a good relationship with Dana as Al also owned the 68 Z convert for quite a while. I think that milestone car is still in Dana's garage.
----As far as losing KO's, it happens. Its happened to me. I once watched my rear drivers side wheel pass me by and disappear into the woods. That has never happened again! Certainly guys sometimes don't get the spinners tight enough, but also some have made the mistake of not counting the revolutions made when attaching the spinner. As I recall its 7 1/2. That's important because you can inadvertently index the wheels on the lug nuts instead of the pins. When that happens the nut wont go down the entire number of revs. The results of that mistake can be very bad!......Bill S

----Forgot to mention an easy way to check tightness on original KO's. Just run a short line with a black magic marker from the spinner to the cone when the spinner is deemed tight enough. Then take a look at weather the two move apart as often as you want!
