Cool...! that is the one I thought I was buying it for; but now see it is a totally different one.

BTW: I have a handfull of emblems like that somewhere that I was always removing from the cars on the lot that I owned. I had a silver "SuperCars" decal that I would replace them with. I think I still have them somewhere as I was collecting them to use as a "conversation piece" on a wall hanging, to have in my office. I am still finding lots of interesting "little things" that I boxed up when I moved years ago.

I have been going back through all my old loan and purchace records to glean the S/N of all of the old performance Cars that I bought back in '72-'84 when I ran the car lot.

Of course I bought a lot of them before that. I found the loan on the '69 BM Vette that I used to finance the putchace of the used car lot (11-26-72) that I changed the name to Super Car Center from Super Cars of Tulsa. I bought out 3 friends that were trying to split the income and were just not making it when the oil embargo hit.

I had a Skelly service station a few blocks away and sold a lot of cars to them. I was fed up with the service station business because some bastard broke in and stole and striped my Green 40 Chev coupe with a SB in it. When they said they were putting it up for sale I just went to my banker and borrowed the 2 grand that they wanted for their improvments on the vacant lot. I took over the lease on the land ($400 Per Mo.) Man that was the smartest thing I ever did. I still have my first Dollar hanging on the wall from that place. I was in the Black the very first month.

Some one said I was lucky to be able to hold on to the cars that I have and I always knew that they would be worth a bunch someday. I remember telling my friends that '69 motion might be worth 50-60,000 thousand dollars someday. Back then, that was a lot of money.
