What a nice surprise in the mailbox today....The July 2006 issue of Chevy Rumble has a great story about Caleb Arone and his '69 427 COPO Camaro!!!! Wonderful to see a cool write-up about a very inspiring and talented young man such as Caleb. If any of you have not yet met this humble gentleman and his car, you are missing some of the best in our hobby. Mr. (Dad) Arone is pretty fantastic too and the story about the family, their car and the resto process they went through is one of the better ones I have had the pleasure to read.

Congratulations Caleb!!!!!! You have a fantastic car, your artistic talent and musclecar knowledge are fantastic assets to the hobby and more importantly, this hobby needs more individuals just like you!

Caleb is one great kid. That old man of his must have been a good influence. It's nice to see children of this generation focused on the hobby as Caleb is. He could be looking at rice burners instead of Copo cars. What a shame that would be. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/haha.gif

Congratulations to Caleb! Always a treat to see him and all the gang from the SCW. That young man has some pretty impressive mentors, including his Father.
I give the kids grief sometimes but it's done tongue-in-cheek. We have a great group of Young Guns here and it's comforting to see the future of this hobby in good hands. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

Can't wait to see Caleb make a pass in that car in the Driver's Seat! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif

I had the pleasure of meeting Caleb at York 05', An artistic talent and fine gentleman. Ditto on the future of this hobby in good hands. Hope to see you and your Pop at York this year. All the best, Rob R.

Congrats Caleb. You are surely an asset to the hobby. You are not about money, you love getting your finger nails dirtly and you know as much or more about these cars then many of the guys your dads age. That and the fact that you give a couple of old farts around here an opportunity to pick on someone their own size makes for a wonderful young man. Keep up the great work you do and strive to surpass the rest. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

That picture looks familiar, I believe that picture hangs in my den above my desk. Had to outbid the BIG dogs to get it, but it was well WORTH IT!!!!

Kenny,
If you are going to be at the Englishtown races, please take a few close-up pictures of Caleb’s car.
I would like to see how much wrinkle the 4.88s are putting into the slicks vs. the number of turns on launch. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif

Thanks,
Eric

PS: Do you think Frank will beat your 11.80?? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
