JoeC,

Thanks for sharing the YouTube video link. No, that's the first time I'd seen it. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it!

Earlier in this thread I mentioned a guy I've known for years from Upper Marlboro, MD. He's the one who sent me those '65 Daytona Impala shots. Well, he and I and other Corvette & Chevy enthusiasts would hang out in this local shop during the weekends to work on our cars. Back in the 1990's. Not far from old Marlboro Raceway and Lowe Chevrolet.

Just across the street was his dad's house. Guess who his dad's personal dentist was for decades? Dr. Dick Thompson. I kid you not!

Good Morning Guys,

I've enjoyed sharing my best Rosenthal Chevrolet memorabilia with you all. I was hoping that anyone with any other Rosenthal stuff would post it here. It would be great to see a shot of your Chevrolet muscle car sold from there too. I'd enjoy seeing anything you have to share. Hopefully I've added to your collections.

Bob Rosenthal also liked the Corvette and always had a fine stock on hand. Many high performance Corvettes came from this dealership. Here's a very clear version of a 1965 sales poster from there. Check out this list of high redline screamers!

(8) 365HP and (5) 375HP "Fuelies." All highly sought after cars now.

Enjoy,
Mike
