Nine '67 L88's? Cool. We know these cars can generate big $$$ in any sale.

On a more serious note. I had never met Buddy Herin until Saturday night but people had said he is a nice guy. He and his Wife both were both very nice. For those that are not aware Buddy is very ill so this was a big deal in finding new homes for his collection. He got out of his wheelchair and drove the L88 up onto the block. It was great that he got to be there to see just how much everyone liked his cars. May God bless you Buddy.
