Default Re: What do you think of this car? Hemmings ....

Like all of you, I was not in Norwood or LA when these cars were built because my father thought ninth grade was more important. I don't know about black rear panels being a "cast in stone" situation. I don't know how to unquestionably document how all these cars were built with NO help from GM (ala Pontiac). I don't know where Hemmings or any other publication comes up with some of the stuff I read and personal experience has shown THEY DO TAKE SOME JOURNALISTIC FREEDOM after gathering facts. But there is one thing I am damn sure about:
You guys have offended one of the finest gentlemen in our hobby, Dave Lindsley. A long time sYc member and contributor, Dave is one of the guys I think of when I tell people how the best friends I have came to me thru the car hobby. He is on my list with people like Chip Miller and Mark Hassett. I'm saddened and ashamed Dave is feeling lousy about this. He's the real thing, my friend Dave.
