Thanks Jeff. The old girl still brings a smile to my face every time I walk in the garage.

We were in the Gibb building yesterday for the New Years Eve Gala. Surprisingly, it has changed very little. The last time I remember being in the shop area, the Harrell F/C was sitting on the hauler near the back door. Lots of memories yesterday.

I heard recently that a large number (as many as 2/3) of the 200 Z-16's ended up with GM employees or "Priviledged" individuals. As Doug's article indicates, GM wanted these cars in the hands of people who could generate some exposure. Truth or fiction?
A friend of mine here in town had one ordered at a local dealership just South of me but it was never delivered. I guess he wasn't on the approved list. He finally settled on a 396 Impala SS which he still owns. Too bad he didn't get the Z. Sure would be nice to have one here in my backyard.
