Got some good press in this month's (Jan 09) Muscle Car Enthusiast for his incredible http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif (I saw it at SCR this year) '68 Royal Bobcat 428 GTO.

Just breathtaking! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/headbang.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

When I saw the title of this thread I thought Mike must have had another birthday. At this point every one is a milestone event. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Kidding aside, the Royal Bobcat car is awesome. Real Pontiac Supercar stuff! I was honored to have it displayed as a part of the Supercar ring at the Masterpiece Concours last August. Certainly a crowd favorite, lots of closet GTO guys out there http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Plus, Bob and Marvin did a fantastic job and are just as cool as the car-true enthusiasts and it shows in their attitude and the end result of the resto.

My favorite part? The pinstripe whitewalls!! After all these years of Mike's abusing me because of my <explitive>(rhymes whith Yay!) whitewalls on my cars it is good to know he finally saw the light! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

I just wanted to thank every one for the kind words on Mike's Royal GTO. Marvin and I along with the guys at our shop worked hard to make this significant GTO one of the best. We also enjoyed meeting you 'true' supercar lovers at the Reunion and Vettefest.
Also,Colin--you don't know the struggle for the whitewalls!On Mike's recently completed Nickey Chevelle that made debut at Vettefest all we could get him to do was a white wall spare.....Bob / Supercar Automotive

Thanks to all for the comments. All the credit goes to Bob, Marvin & their very talented painter Jeremiah. They also deserve kudos for the Nickey sold Malibu L79 that just won the Top Gun award at Chevy Vettefest for modified Chevelle.
