I'll let you drive my '69 RS/Z for a day if you promise to wear a wig like that one for a year!

Might not be a better day as caretaker than seeing the original owner have another go at the helm ...

OK, I'm as bad as anyone on this board when it comes to 'observational and sarcastic commentary', but that aside you gotta admit if you owned this car it's damned cool to have a photo of Jim Wangers driving it 45 years after it was built.

Congrats Tenny!.

Great to see the Big-Wig himself behind the wheel again...does he still drive like he used to?.
I'd expect Wangers and this post car shared many 'hair raising' experiences together...are there any old pics of him and the car from back in the day?.

Damn you're good! Seriously, we all owe a load of gratitude to Jim Wangers and the experience would be equivalent to Duntov driving someone's Vette or ZL1.
