As usual it was a good time at vettefest. It is always fun to meet new friends and talk to old ones. I also enjoyed driving the Douglas Yenko about 80 miles to and from the show, the weather was perfect. We also played around in the bleach box. All the super cars were great. Those new ZL-1 were to cool and roared like the old big blocks. Bill also stopped by and shot a piece, since he was my old nieghbor and I still help him out from time to time, when ever I have a car at Vettfest he stops by. Next fall should be a great show with all the super cars being featured.( Chicago area alone must have at least 25 of them).

ssl78- Was disappointed that I didn't get a chance to introduce myself. Saw the Yenko though, very nice. I was chasing around my 2 year old so I didn't get a chance to talk much. We're practically neighbors. Hopefully I'll get to say hi during the summer.

Thanks guys my father and I are flattered. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] Not bad for a guy with only 2 stars! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

BTW Belair 62 was that your red drop dead gorgeous Biscayne? I really wanted to meet you. I wish I had known that was your car. That was one of the only other cars other than the ones posted that I took pictures of. Their was a beautiful blue sleeper big car as well.
