8 Tracks and other cool stuff

[bowtie3168]

I think that adding "period correct add-ons" is a great idea! When I am looking around at a car show I think that they make a car stand out more. Things like 8-tracks and other dealer installed options make the cars seem more "real". I like to see dealer plaques on deck lids too. How cool is it when you are showing your car and someone walks up to you and says 'I bought my car at the same dealer and I have some info that I would like to share with you'?
Here is some more info on Dan Blocker of "Bonanza". Dan Blocker was a "gear head". Chevrolet Motor Division sponsored the show and gave Blocker a "Crocus Yellow" Chevelle Malibu Super Sport Z-16. Blocker drove the car for a while and then either returned it or traded it in when his next car came in. Blocker died suddenly of a pulminary emblolism in 1972. The car changed hand several times and is now owned by Terry Gunter (who lives in Georgia). The car was featured on "The American Muscle Car" on "Speedvision". I have a "Nickey" catalog that has a photo of Dan Blocker and Dick Harrell in it. Rob has a copy, maybe he can scan the photo onto the thread.
