Default Original Owners MCACN V 2013; What do you think?

As you know, the MCACN team is always looking for ways to "raise the bar" and keep things interesting.

To me, hearing the stories and the history of our beloved Muscle Cars and Corvettes right from the original owners is not only a whole lot of fun, but also info from the source is priceless.

Several sYc Members I know are original owners, and I have had the pleasure of spending some quality time with them hearing some really cool stories. Mr. Barnhart and Mr. Cumby obviously come to mind!

So the questions of the day are, should we host an Original Owners Special Showcase display for MCACN V 2013, and if YOU are an original owner, would you like to join us and share both your car and some memories with us?

BTW; peer pressure is a wonderful thing when it comes to the MCACN show...so help me out here! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

I for one think that would be awesome. It might get tiring for the owners to tell the story over and over all weekend but it would certainly be cool.

Add Ray Morrison and his original owner 68 Fred Gibb Nova. also, I restored a 63 Chevy II for an original owner and she is now 88 years old. I know she would love to sit and talk to people. Unfortunately it is just a 4-door, 6 cyl car but cool none the less.

I like it! Would be a cool forum to unite original owners with cars that have become seperated. I know of several people who have made contact with their car's OO.
