I had the oportunity to visit with Kwhizz at the nats. His 70 L89 conversion is very cool. He mentioned that he knew Charley, and we told him we'd try not to hold it against him. Glad to visit with you Ken, and very cool nova.

After being home and reflecting on the last couple of days.......I think I have a new perspective about the "History" of Muscle Cars.......after talking to Tom, Marlin, Ken, and meeting Helen, her daughter, and seeing COPO #50 (I touched it to make sure)and meeting so many others that I can't remember them all........I thought that since I lived thru that era that I was a part of it.......Wrong.........I just experienced it in a very small insignificant way........
I could never understand what all the fuss was about having a documented correct car..........after last week I can see that you cannot recreate history and the standards of correctness should never be compromised......you guys got it all together and should keep it that way......Ken.....you are quite a guy ..........Marlin.....a walking encyclopedia........Tom......Muscle Car Sheriff.....On and On.....
Just some thoughts.......Sorry to Ramble...

Ken
