Re: from Dave Newhardt's upcoming book
OK, I'm as bad as anyone on this board when it comes to 'observational and sarcastic commentary', but that aside you gotta admit if you owned this car it's damned cool to have a photo of Jim Wangers driving it 45 years after it was built.

Re: from Dave Newhardt's upcoming book
Congrats Tenny!.
Great to see the Big-Wig himself behind the wheel again...does he still drive like he used to?. I'd expect Wangers and this post car shared many 'hair raising' experiences together...are there any old pics of him and the car from back in the day?. ~ Pete

Seriously, we all owe a load of gratitude to Jim Wangers and the experience would be equivalent to Duntov driving someone's Vette or ZL1.

Yep, still lead in that foot! Don't have any old pics aside from mags and stuff, though recall a cool photo of the car in profile on his office wall when he returned to the agency circa mid-70's. Should probably check and see if a copy 'o that's still around ...
