You guys are a riot. Glad I got a chance to see Belair's car before Charley and John converted it into a * car.

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

The two Lemans Blue Camaros were beautiful restos! The white interior in The COPO really set it off. Congrats!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Did everyone get home OK???? About 7:00PM on I55 west I witnessed a near disaster. With a blue early Corvette convertable disabled on the right shoulder with no lights, a later model Corvette tried to pull over for assistance only to find out that you can't stop on Armoralled tires in the rain. 2 complete rotations without hitting anything! WOW. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Aside from the awards noted above, kudos to MR70 for yet another set of Gold Spinner/Top Gun Awards on his spectacular 70 SS396....and he drove it home!

Na, I did not get them autographed, [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I even forgot to get her to autograph the sign with the car info. Getting old and senile [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Congrats Rick on the "Top Gun" and the "Gold Spinner" (Well Deserved) I hope you strapped them to bottom of your car to keep the floor pans dry!
