One of the sweetest “survivor” cars out there. I remember when it first surfaced, as per barn finds, was second only to the Red ’68 DH Chevelle. Too bad that all of the negativity from the Harrell camp has turned most collectors, and even a lot of enthusiasts, off on any car remotely associated with Dick.

There are people here who feel that some of their collector cars are no longer welcomed here or at some shows due only to the fact of "guilty by association" and that is very sad.

Now I feel like if it were parked in my garage, no one would want to see it and that is just sad. A 1 of 1 car that is left out to pasture due to some issues it had NOTHING to do with.

Rick, I could not agree with you more, the cars should stand on their own merits and not be judged by who happens to own them. Unfortunately this is not always the case. Ever have someone beat on your car with her fist because she dislikes you? I have.
