My #53 car, a Victory Red 427, was delivered to me the day before Thankgiving and that will surely be a day I will never forget. GM and all the folks at the Oxford, MI facility really did a great job. After having taken delivery on many new Chevy cars and trucks over 4 decades, this was one memorable experience. I have yet to see the first quarter mile in my new COPO but the entire order, build and delivery process has made me one happy customer. You will have a great day getting that car and seeing it home in your own garage will be very rewarding.

Jackson -- was at Turn Key today... nice place, had a chance to tour with Mike Lawrence... also dropped my damaged Chevy II hood over at the Mancini's paint & body shop, and they had a few COPO's rolling around getting ready for paint...

I will attempt to attach a couple of (lousy) photos I took of your sled... looks like they have "a little" work to do to be ready for you on Friday -- but I'm sure it'll all come together.

Congrats, have fun -- and I will call you about wheels... dropped off a few samples with the Turn Key guys for the Camaro roller program

Thanks Scotto - Its starting to look like a car -- for the moment we'll just call her - "Frankenmaro " ............. To a used car guy like myself its not big deal - a part here and a part there and it'll be together .

And get cracking on those wheels already ...........

Jack you can slice it anyway you want you are the one who started all this non sense you can say whatever you want and I don't think either jim or I care. All that has been said by me is that my car was first out the door to the public and you were there to see it does it mean anything to anyone but me I doubt it. What I said was true . Jim's came out of the build plant first according to you and I don't doubt your word mine was the first delivered to the public and driven by its owner me and you can't doubt my word. Again who cares? Hey maybe the day before you got there they rolled the white one out and that was the first one the sun shined on did you ever think of that? Maybe you should write about something more interesting. Our statements appear to both be accurate. Now about who's car went 8.49 at 161..... Lets see you spin that one so you can do some more posting.Really jack you seem like a nice guy maybe we should have a beer at the track.Tell you what you can open your bottle first

So the purpose of the last few posts is to what, fill out the stories for the 2035 B-J Auctions catalog?
It's Christmas, you're all happy with your new toys, it's all good.
You've all got years to swap war stories and lies and, when the time comes, we'll believe them anyway.
