A memorable weekend in Springfield - the Midwest Chevelle Regionals . . .
One participant was not a Chevelle but the club OK'd it as part of a three car display

Ray is looking great. I have not seen him for several years and is one of the best ambassadors to the hobby that there ever was. If I remember correctly the owner of the 68 is also named Roger. Another nice gentleman I met at the Gibb show several years ago and another beautiful car.

What are the chances

Karen and I attended the Chaparels Car Club 50 year anniversary event in my old home town of Plattsburg MO on the 4th.
A surprise came my way at the event from Steve Engnes (event organizer). It was old and had an interesting story

Steve said the emblem came off a '69 Chevelle sold at auction in the early '80's. Being a drag racer himself, Steve knew about "Dickie Harrell" so he picked up the emblem

The auction location was the same as where my old Chevelle was auctioned off in the early '80's. I talked to the early '80's owner back in Dec 2008 and he related the sale event - said the Harrell emblem was on the car when consigned but later went missing . . .

Over 30 years later
