I just got off the phone with Jerry what a GREAT guy he still has the original owners name and the cars history from day one. He sold all his cars in 1998 to buy a winter home in Arizona. You gotta love this site or sight as Charley and Colin say. LOL

I have some old video of Jerry's car from a show in Springfield Ohio years ago @ 1991. The tape is at least an hour or better long. One of he first Yenko gatherings ever for Cars and Parts magazine...BKH

Is there anyway I could get a copy of the video???? By the way check out my thread of the original owners buyer experience of this car.

It's on old VHS tape. I havent seen it in years, but I interviewed Jerry on that day along with many others. I am sure there are many members cars on this tape. I guess there are places that can put it into CD form. If thats possible then yes..BKH

Hey Paul,

Jerry B's '66 Fairlane is here in Tacoma, WA. I was at the Kruse Auction in Auburn IN in '97 or '98 and came across Jerry and his Fairlane in the Car Corral section. I brought one of Jerry's very nice 8.5x11" glossy flyers home and gave it to my Ford collecting buddy, Gary McKay. He subsequently made a deal with Jerry to buy the Fairlane (plus a like-new F250 and Jerry's car trailer to boot.) Gary took some pics while he was there and later showed them to friend Jim Hughes. Jim, a Chevy guy at heart, spotted the Camaro in the pics and was smitten. He put a deal together, and soon the SYC Camaro was on its way to the NW. (IIRC, Jerry still had an L78 Nova and was storing/selling a friend's yellow W-code 427 '67 Comet).

As you may recall, Paul, Gary McKay is also the same fellow who had previously owned the 1700 mile Ex-McGruder '66 Hemi Satellite you guys picked up at BJ in '07.

Now sing, "It's a small world after all, its a small world after all......."
