F.Y.I I have a signed letter here by a Mr. William T. Jenkins (aka Da Grump) dated 3-15-1988 giving me permission to build a life sized clone of his first Nova and to use the name "Grumpy's Toy" and Bill Jenkin's during a visit to his shop. I also received a tour of his shop and the other toys he collected. I found him to be a genuine warm person and not grumpy at all. Its a day I will never forget. As usual life gets in the way and I never got around to it. Maybe someday before I get to old. I keep the letter and magazine stored in a plastic envelope with the article dated October 1966 on his Chev 2.
