Guess my car got leftovers as mine is a billboard for Hoosier ..........

Mack - The Victory Red is a sharp color for sure -- but I've never been a plain vanilla kind of guy - so , yes -- it'll be "plenty loud" after a trip to Ryan Koreks' paint booth .

Might be because they have shipped so many cars lately. I think that its a cool piece of history. In years to come collectors will be arguing over what is correct!

Well , here's the thing - I can't believe I didn't notice - my car is "half & half " - the rears are white letter and the fronts are blackwall ...........like I said - leftovers ! ! ! Guess I spent way too much time standing next to the car posing and not enough time looking .........hmmmmmmm - does that mean I have a " one of one car ? " .Who cares anyway - my heirs will love talking it up .Me ? I'm gonna use it while I can still crawl in and buckle up ............

One thing you can be sure of - there will never , I repeat never ( geez, I hope I don't regret this ) be another "Chieftain " ..............

Now Jack, never say never. You may one day crew for a grandchild who continues the Chieftain lineage. You know, the family tree and all...
