Worldwide Camaro Association Illinois Rep Jerry Bechtold proposed to his Girlfriend by hiding the ring under the hood of my car and then bringing her over to see my car. He opened the Hood and she broke out in tears. Pretty neat moment.

Wow, that's a creative marriage proposal! Will they want to use your car in the wedding procession, Charley? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Both of your cars looked great there. And what a surprise to see the Ken Barnhart cars there; a surprise to me that an original owner ZL1 is only 20 miles from my home. I had no idea [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/blush.gif[/img]

I'm certainly learning a lot of interesting things from this site.

Charley,
That's going to make a fantastic story associated with the history of your car. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img] We had just come back up-stairs Friday night when we heard the distant rumble of a certain Orange '02 ZL-1 #16. We were there when Ken and Geri pulled in. The smile on his face almost brought tears to my eyes. Then the latest version of #3 arrived. WOW! These things just keep getting better.
Most of the guys in our group had the pleasure of seeing the '69/'02 car display and to talk with you all. There were many comments about how friendly and accessible you and Barnhart were. You have some new fans!
Bill Pritchard, it was a pleasure to finally meet you. I wish we had more time to spend with all the folks on this site. Thanks also to Cap't. Carl, Kevin Hand, and to Gary, Robin and Logan Holub for taking the time to stop and say Hi. And a special Thank You to my travelling companion, Dennis Hartweg. It was a special week-end.

P.S. Thanks for the photos, Charley. We always look forward to your shots from the shows.

You can talk to Barnhart but don't leave your Kids alone near him... [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
