Default Re: Harrell Camaro pic

Bill, nice picture, but that is when is was being ran by Jim Little, not Fred Gibb. In conversations with Kim, who has done a TON of research on the car, including removing old paint layer by later, there is a good possiblilty that the car was repainted after Fred bought the car, done to remove Jim Little from the rear quarters and Stott from the front fenders. Regardless of color, a part of racing history and a BAD ASS car.

The goal of the sYc is to preserve and promote the supercars, which includes the builders and tuners of those cars. Dick did accomplish a lot in his brief career, but until a few years ago, had kind of been forgotten. But because of such folks as Brian and Kim, the sYc has been able to help get Dick get the recoginition he deserves. This effort was jump started when the special guests at SCR3 were Valerie Harrell and her son Michael.

As per the jack stands remark, you needed to have been at the banquet during SCR6 to fully understand that, as Kim and Joel "Mr. Motion" Rosen had a interesting discussion about this.

Bill you should re-read BKH's post....bringing back cars is pretty damn respectable if you ask me.Especially significant race cars. If the color is not exactly the way you think it should be...thats your issue. No need to dis the car. The whole jackstand issue sounds kind of like the whole Mr Helen thing from a while back. You had to be there to get it I guess.
