First of all let me say that
And I'm not just saying that because you like my car! I'm saying that because you've help me to realize what I've done by keeping my car all these years, without messing it up too bad. Like I said in the write-up, there just wasn't any reason to sell it. And I, for sure, didn't think I was going to actually keep it for 39+ years!! Thanks again for all the positive comments. Oh yeah, did I tell you that
I'll try to answer some of your questions. I don't know how to list multiple quotes, so here it goes -
SS427(Rick) - the car was just off the trailer when I took those pics on the lot of the engine. Don't ask me why I took it. I'm just sorry I didn't take more!
92646(Mark) - Being excited when I picked up the car is a major understatement!! I wish I had a time machine just to relive that experience.
47Hammer(Bart) - Like I said, it's really starting to sink in. I've always thought of it as just another old car. But when you've had something this long, it's a part of the family and there's a lot of history that goes along with it. I probably won't make it to the El Segundo show (it's mainly a "gear" thing), but I am trying to get some interest in doing a PCH-South cruise on August 9th.
Mr.Chevy (Rich) - The boy in the video was a neighbor of my friend who went with us that day. My son wasn't born until about 8 or 9 years later!!
ORIGLS6(Dennis) - I don't know if it was foresight to 'record' the car but I would love to meet you someday too!!
And last, but not least, I want to thank Bruce for making this whole thing possible. If he hadn't seen my car a couple weeks ago, it would still be just an old Nova, sitting in my garage!! By the way did I tell you
that
And I really mean it!!
Later dudes,
Joe
