Default Re: 2008 Nova Nationals..

Finally have a chance to sit down and chime in on the blast we had at the Nova 'Nats, Wilma, Kenny (Kwhizz), Mike and Grady, Benny, Don and Sammy all absolute CADILLAC people to be around, highlights: #1 getting Motrin at the CVS(for a blown out elbow due to bad golf), stopping at a red light and having a 71 Z28 pull up along side, light goes green, RPM's up and we're off , he had me out of the hole, but after 2nd gear it was over for him, all at 9:30 AM #2. Meeting the 2nd owner of my car, Carl, who had it from 73-76 (see pic), the story goes that one day in 76 when it wouldn't start he called to have it towed, they towed it and the guy said he owes $25 bucks for the tow, Carl said "KEEP THE CAR, I HAVE NO $$" unbelievable.! Took him for a ride and his last words when he was leaving " Thank you Jim, I will never forget this day" No Carl, Thank you. Looking forward to meeting everyone again at Vettefest, too bad it's only 2 days. To answer the question about the license plate frame, they are from Wm Pape Chevy in my town of Huntington NY. I found a bunch of pairs NOS and threw them on. Pape was a fairly serious HiPo dealer back in the day. SULLY
