Needing some reading material for "the reading room" I grabbed a mag from my shelf. Jan 2000 Muscle Car Review. They have a whole article on the '99 GS Nats. Also a "battle of the barges" where a '73 Riv GS Stage1 comes in second. And a blip about the 1970 455 Stage2. Let me know and I'll scan them. Hmmmm.... now where have I seen this before...
There are some in this thread: http://v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26765&highlight=berwyn+bash+recap
Sheez.....those things must be growing on trees !!! I remember back when.....seemed like Yesterday.....you had to go to a V8 tech session at another clubs event to see one of those ou: ou:
I got that Riv setting in my garage. I missed winning by .2 of a second. If I would have emptied all the car show stuff and the cooler out of the trunk I might have just pulled it off.
Looking through some of my old stuff and found my pics from the 1st GM Nationals at Carlise. And looky what I found...
KEVIN! That's correct! It's YOU!!! HEY!! We have a celeb in our midst! Your 1st run was a 15.87, your third run was a 16.05. Why'd it slow down so much? Almost 2/10ths. Anyway, you did us all proud, man. Why don't you modify your signature to show your GS as a Stage1??? Please do. You deserve it. A boattail GS Stage1 is ROYAL!:TU:
"Sheez.....those things must be growing on trees !!!" Seems like those X-Camino's are everywhere. Sure glad I'm not the fool that spent 2 years building one. Yardley, The car was pictured in Muscle Car Review and in the Sept issue of Car Craft, and both times it was on a trailer. One of my favorite pictures of the car is on my website. We were leaving the Columbus Nationals and heading back to the Hotel when I passed my camera over to a friend in the car next to us, and he took a picture of Rich and I while we were driving it. Duane
Yup. You sent me a copy of that pic! I thought you sold the interior business????? Am I confused about something? Your website is the classic interiors one, right? Y
Yardley, Yes, the Classic Car Interiors website is mine, I sold the upholstery part of my business, but retained the name and the plastic/rubber injection molding part. Duane PS. I always thought you were a little confused, probably due to all the sun you got last year in a certain backyard I know of.
Here is another picture. It's hard to see but that is a rainbow that looks like it is coming out of the trunk. It was taken at the 98 Nats, the car's first showing. Duane
