Boy o boy something about these brown musclecars! Car and owner has to be at the top of every list and ANY magazine feature! Great car and even a better story.

Way to go Verne! If we didn't know you better we'd think you were really mad! (Let's just say you're passionate about these cars! Not a thing wrong with that. )

I gotta agree, an Original Owner B/M P3 Chevelle deserves a Helluva lot more attention than Kerry and that Groundhog everyone talks about. I can only think of one thing better than a full blown feature on this car; and that would be seeing (and hearing) it in person at SCR X!

Thanks for keeping a piece of history alive and well Joe. I'm a BIG fan of Burnished Brown.

Yeah, I guess I let the fire in my belly get the best of me sometimes. Sorry if I upset anyone. I wasn't really MAD (with a capital "M"), but more disappointed and frustrated by what seemed to be a lack of recognition of such a unique one-owner car. I also realized that the thread title might have made it a bit invisible...
So, I apologize for letting my passion get me overly worked up.
Joe calls my wife, "Saint Janet". I've beat up on Joe too, many times. But he seems to put up with me, maybe because he knows it's coming from a friend.

Verne

What the hell is with you guys??????? Senator what's his name and a beat up nova get more attention then an ORIGINAL OWNER MOTION PHASE III CAR that's finally out and on the road after 13 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????
I'm sorry for the hot poker guys, but I just don't understand it! Joe is one of those "salt of the earth" guys who bought that magnificent car when he was barely out of his teens, and STILL OWNS it!!!!! Why can't more people realize how special that is??? Maybe I'm just on a different plane, because I still own the car I bought when I was 17. I guess it's a feeling that only a very few can relate to.

And I apologize to Joe for calling attention to him without him knowing. This rant is none of his doing. It's just me being me.

Would someone kindly post a list of every original owner of a MOTION car who STILL owns the car???? Think about that for a bit, and maybe my point will sink in a little. Joe is a laid back kind of guy who never draws attention to himself, but I happen to believe attention is due. He's not some jerk who hacked up the car and threw it away. He's spent untold time and effort to bring that car back to the way it was when he took delivery from Joel Rosen. and if I know Joe, he'll own it every day he's alive! Stop and think about this..................EVERY DAY of the history of his car is known. That might take a little time to really sink in.

Verne
Sorry Joe, I just HAD to to do this..... Please don't be upset with me. You and your Chevelle deserve a special place in Supercar history as far as I'm concerned, but then, who the H am I??

It hadn't sunk-in until I read Verne's post. You're right to be exasperated Verne, I would MUCH rather drool over cars such as Joe's Chevelle than talk politics. Now it's time for a few burnout photos, huh Joe???

You could have said that the massive torque of the big block popped the passenger door ajar! My buddy's '67 BB (LS-7) Camaro used to pop the pass door routinely on hard launches and second-gear shifts. Got my attention the first time it did that! (Glove box door would flop open too.)

It didn't matter what the title, when Joe posts, I READ !!

I could be wrong but that list may start and end here?

I'm gonna see Verne in a few days so I guess he's gonna lay into me ...and his wife is a saint........No doubt about it though Verne is the truest car guy I know .......I've also been informed that there is a Groundhog Union, so I've be banned from reporting on my shadow.-- In the end I enjoyed taking the photos and thought I'd pass them on..Many thanks to all you car guys... ....Joe

Joe,
First of all, I'm very sorry to hear that you know so very few people. I guess it just must be me and your cousin Vinne who's in jail???

As for more photos of Joe's car, I just might be able to arrange that, but I think he's going to charge me heavily for each one. He's a really mean guy!

I don't suppose anyone would like to see a video with sound would they?? You never know what might be coming. That reminds me.....I'll have to go the pharmacy first and buy a rubber before I film that!!!!

Verne
