National Impala Convention July 27th-Aug1st

------I think two cars pictured were at Meadowbrook on Sunday in the concours. Ronnies old racer and that beautiful black 61. Both were a sight to behold. Did that 64 you were driving have a silver gut??? One of my favorite combos! And did you mention it might be for sale??? Thanks for the pics. It looks like you guys had a bunch of fun..........Bill S

Bill, Both of his silver '64 Super Sports have the silver interiors. Pretty rare and really beautiful. He also has another '64 SS that was originally silver on black, but it's been repainted black. That one is slated for sale as well. These are all "future plans", as none are for sale now, but if you're interested in contacting him, I'll give you the info privately.

Yes, we had a ton of fun. Jody arranged for some terrific prizes for the drags. The eliminator win got me Pit Pal's new 25th anniv alum trailor door rack (which I gave to Tom because I don't have a trailor OR room on my shop wall), the best reaction time got me a certificate for a billit Pertronics distributor and for the most runs I received the "Z-11 of creepers" from Jegs.
Tom's silver '64 "driver" received a 2nd place People's choice. That's the car I drove back & forth to the convention from his place and it's as sweet as they come. Full of options and cold A/C.
The photos above of the 2 cars together were when they were arranged for a photo session for a feature article on the pair in the NIA magazine.
