It was really nice to make your acquaintance.

The Nova is spectacular

I was looking at it Sunday morning, but no one was around. After following his OCD thread, I knew it would be spectacular and it is. I like his Green Bastard Caricature too, very cute...

I didn't put it together that this car is the Green Bastard. One of my favorite cars at the MCACN.

I came by a few times trying to find someone with the car, but never could find anyone. I don't like to look at anything up close without permission. I love the car.

Sorry I missed some of you guys. Saturday was overwhelming with interest in the car. It was awesome to connect with people from the site !! Thanks to everyone for all the compliments.

Sunday I spent most of the time walking the show so I am sorry if I missed catching up.
It was a great trip and show as always, this year with particularly good weather !

Gibsons and Giardano's were also outstanding.

Yes, the car is looking terrific. Amazing work on the resto-you have much more talent than I do! I remember seeing it at World of Wheels in Winnipeg a few years ago and it has undergone quite the transformation. It was great to visit with you folks as well.
