One of Matt's guys drove Helen's Car with her in the passenger seat and did a burn out but not to the degree of the 600 hp cars. She said she loved it. I think everyone was very happy she got a car. She said there sould be a ZL1 in LaHarpe. I told Dennis Barker was having far to much fun doing awesome 500 foot (or more) burnouts and the car going sideways, back and forth. What a super awesome day again in LaHarpe. Again, Matt Murphy, Dennis Barker, Helen Gibb and family and Mayor Brown (who was kind enough to keep the police busy on the other side of town) made the trip to LaHarpe very worthwhile. Also thanks to Ann Hartwig for being there. Congratulations to the new owners - those 600 hp cars sound awesome. I will say again that Matt has made these cars into cars that will go down in the muscle car history books. Being a older fellow, I have been to a lot of car related events, the two days at Laharpe have to be at the top of the fun list.

Thanks to everyone who attended our show in LaHarpe Sun. A special thanks to Dennis C. who helped with the memorial. Also for the ones who couldn't make it we did do other things besides smokies. I have no idea what Dennis was trying to hide or take from the ZL-1. Thanks again and keep in touch. Ken [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

Thanks, Buddy. I take back most of the good things I said about you earlier. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]
You'll notice I wasn't alone under there. Joel has a real desire for a BE axle for his car. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]
