Keep the fun button up! Drive till you see the face of GOD, then brake!

In the meantime Jeff Gassen is on his way to Alabama to pick up the Johnny Benson Chrome Illusion SS #72.

I received a call from the Mike when I was in HRE #2000 on the 2014 Power Tour.



We talked awhile & I suggested he join the Forum & we would see if we could help find a buyer.



We've talked a number of times in the last 2 months.



Little did I know 2 months ago that it would be me. Why not?



Why did I buy the car?



I'm convinced GMMG's will & are going up in value, they are my 401k's & I can drive every one of them & I do.



I'm putting my money where my mouth is. I'm telling ya this is the time to be buying GMMG's before the window closes.



Are GMMG's going up in price? I say yes vs. a couple of years ago. If you wait you might be too late.



Jim

The car will look even better in person. I can't wait to see it, hear it, and get a ride in it. Congratulations!

8-9-14......Having shipping issues & getting run around with broker. Here I go again!



After the fact they charged me another $151 & then came back another time for more $$. I hate the 'bait & switch' & raising the cost later on after we had an agreement.



I had to have cash for the driver- was not the drivers fault - will never use Montway again.



Cr arrived @ 12:30 am - driver wanted me to sign on the road in the dark. WHAT? I said no way & he could meet me in the garage so we both could look the car over.

Dusty but looks good.



I'll be changing oil, washing & detailing in the morning.











With SS #45











One little, two little, three little, four little Bergers!



#45 White/orange - #63 Silver - #72 Johnny Benson #72 - #85 Red Convert















All the documentation is there...... GM Window Sticker - GMMG Window Sticker - SLP Alteration Invoice - Camaro Portfolio



The only thing missing is the car cover - Owner said he never received it when the car was new.
