Thanks Guys,

The first I knew about the picture and short article being in the April issue of Super Chevy, was when a friend called me at work and said there is a picture and short article about the Nova at the Chevy Vette/Fest. I was dissappointed to find that not a great lot was said concerning the excellent showcase of all the COPO and Dealer built cars.They did mention Larry Christenson's ZL-1 and the award he received, but with no picture or story? Mark Hastett, Gary Holub, and maybe others were Gold Spinner winners, nothing said about this or any pictures. Gary Holub also did a great deal of work in organizing this show, which should have also been mentioned. I am glad to see Mark Guarise got a picture of his nice 71 Motion Camaro, but with a show with so many fine examples of automotive history, I feel a little sensationalized to have this coverage.The thing that I am happy about, is that both Fred Gibb and Dick Harrell were mentioned. By the way, What is an L-70? Since the L-72 is 425 horsepower, the L-71 is 435 horsepower, is the L-70 the 450 horsepower version? I guess you never get to old to learn?

Ray

Ray and his Nova is the best example of what the old car hobby is all about. An original owner who knows the history of his rare SuperCar and is willing to spend time sharing his knowledge and experience with other people. Ray and Valerie Harrell did a great job providing an interesting presentation on Dick Harrell at SuperCar R3. Here is a shot of Ray with his 32 year old tee shirt. I hope Ray doesn't mind my posting it here. Lighting was bad. Ray is much more handsome in real life.

Are you sure Ray isn't the 32 year old in the picture?! Anyone who knows Ray will understand what I am talking about...he seems to always be "on the go". He has as much or more enthusiasm for these cars as anyone I know, and I will have to say that it's about time he gets some credit!

CONGRATS RAY!
