Great pics Roger. It was nice meeting you and hearing the story of how you bought the car twice. You even got me in one of your pics. That's me looking at the Dick Harrell Camaro with my back to the camera.

[green crv]

Really cool couple, car, story and love that song. Talk about reliving your teen years. Was really fun meeting you two and hearing about how you rebought the car. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif

Awesome car and a awesome guy

[RogerD]

Any chance you remember my Chevelle . . . (https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000620164591&ref=content_filter). Bob replied, "I really do, there was a Nova/Chevy 2 and a Camaro. All three Dickie Harrell cars" :biggthumpup: Bob is Bill Allen's youngest son :)

[big gear head]

I remember seeing you and your car at SCR19. I loved the story about how you found it again. That's an almost impossible stroke of luck. Most people don't list the VIN in an ad like that. It's a great car and I really enjoyed talking to you last year.

One of my favorite 2017 pics . . .

Bob Allen (Bill Allen's son) and I talked about the three Dick Harrell SuperCars at Bill Allen Chevrolet the day I bought the Orange Chevelle. Bob commented that he was working the rack that August 19th morning :biggthumpup:

I'm not certain, but . . .
Could be the late June built COPO Camaro Dave Richardson bought new from Bill Allen.
Joe Stidham Bought it after Dave traded it in, his brother Gerry now owns that one.

They couldn't spell Camaro either! :haha:

[Charley Lillard]

In that ad they couldn't spell Harrell.

Here's that earlier Bill Allen ad as posted previously w/ Harrell Camaros & Chevelles.
Also below is a Red '68 Harrell Camaro ad, lots of others here too but few w/ Bill Allen.
Again, love to see more anything of these cars...sorry for the hijack Roger.:crazy:
