Default Re: He called me "Peanuts"

I have been going through Bill's dad's pics recently, and thought you might enjoy seeing the car that he was working on in the pic above.

I started to post this on Sunday morning, but heard that Bread song "Everything I Own" (I had 70's music playing on Comcast) and "lost it" . Since today is the 23rd (his race car#), this is probably a better day anyway!


This photo was taken at a car show at Pontiac's Administration Building, just one day after he finished the restoration:



Before pic:



A couple more of him working on it:









This is an article that Bill wrote for the local Pontiac Club newsletter. It will tell the story...I think you'll enjoy it!







He did end up taking it to the Pontiac National Convention in 1989...and won "Best of Show" (out of 700+ cars)



"I would give everything I own, just to have you back again"
