May he rest in peace. I saw him more than once at our local Chevy dealership when I was in there having a car serviced. I think he hung out there a lot. This was back when he did ads on TV for GM's Mr. Goodwrench service if I remember right. He always had a GM Goodwrench cap on and drove a Corvette. He lived in Grass Valley, CA right next to the city I live in.

----I think I'm as sad as I can remember. I have all kinds of Chuck's posters, paintings and other stuff directly related to him. This is as sad a day as when our beloved Bouvier was put down. I absolutely mean that as a sincere feeling, no joke! I think of our old girl every day. Thanks so much, Charley!.....Bill S
