Sweet "Gibb Chevrolet" ad...looks like a Green car? "Tri States Sports Center"...how neat is that?! I think I'll call today... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

And quite possibly my new favorite ad...this was at the bottom of the page under coverage of various drag events, so I'm guessing it's someone's *rendition* of one of the past events.

SWEET... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

It ain't me makin' the delivery Buddy. Wanda Wizlinski (I think she works for 'Supercars') said she had a special Case of Crabs for anyone interested in sharing. I sent her your name and address.

JD, I wouldn't do that to ANYONE; not even Bob! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Hey Rick, where'd you get that 'old' picture of Wanda? She looked pretty good before she had those nine kids, gained seventy pounds, lost her hair and teeth, and grew the beard. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Not an ad per se, but is that a window sticker I see in ZL-1 #1?

Jeff....cool newspaper pics. Now I will have to see if that Bud Lyons is still around the West Des Moines, IA area. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif Might be neat to talk to him if he is. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

DH selling the ZL-1. Notice they forgot to change the HP parts listing below the shield - it still says " ZL-1 Parts Available Soon.", which is left over from the ad the week before. "OOP" was already famous too.

Not to worry Bob, You and I know the steak and lobster are thanks for the kind words you had for me and the Nova....all of the above blow is coming from a man, and I swear this is true.....whom, while he is climbing into his truck and talking to me FROM his cell phone , asks me to "'hang on a minute', I want to make sure I have my cell phone with me..." Need I say more?

By the way...the ads are fantastic!!!!!!!!!
