Dang! Story of my life...hour late, dollar short. I want that emblem!

[Baron Von Zeppelin]

I put in about a $10 bid on that emblem - as a marker.
Then brain lapsed and didnt keep track with it - until after it ended.
Only one other bidder besides me - and they got it for $10 and Change.

Week or two later i posted the pic of it on PY
Don says - hey that looks just like the one i got off eBay recently.

Got Dang ! lol

----Bought a couple of cars off of Bill K back in the early 70's. 1st was his wifes 72 TA driver. Had about 4000 easy miles on it. White, blue gut, loaded, automatic. 2nd was a 73 GMC El Camino. What I knew about him was all good. Real decent, nice guy!......Bill S

Hey Bill, thanks for sharing your actual person to person experiences with Knafel . Not many in the hobby seem to have ever had any real life encounters or business with him.

On a whim if possibly you were active in that area in later 1969 - by any chance did you ever see one of these wild 69 GTO's on his lot ? Or running around town ?

Bill, would you be able/willing to dig up any pictures of the TA, no matter how good or bad they are, I'd love to see any.

----You know, Nick, I never took a pic of that TA. Im sorry. I wasn't very comfortable in it and moved on after about 6 months to the GMC El Camino as I thought I needed a quasi-pickup to haul stuff around. Only thing I did to the TA was a set of American Daises. Car looked cool with them!...…..Bill S
