Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

As usual it was a great show. Thanks go to Ken and his crew once again for making a very well executed and organized show. It was very nice to see old friends and make new ones and once again it was great to put a face with a name. Maybe one of these years I will get to look at the cars. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Speaking of Bill Porterfield and ZL-1 #1, how about this moon shot?

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

A neighbor of ours, Frank Nickoll, at the wheel of ZL-1, #1. Sadly Frank passed away a while back.

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Thought this was kind of interesting, Bill in the ZL-1 going up against, and defeating, Ronnie Sox in a Sox & Martin Hemi. According to Bill, he began match racing the car in 1991 running that year a 10.20 @135. Defeated McDonald's AFX '65 Coronet, Banning's '68 Hemi Dart, Legend's Pontiac, and lost to Bob Reed's '68 Hemi Cuda. In '93 Bill inproved to a 9.31 @ 144.89, defeating the Sox and Martin '68 Hemi Cuda and Red Alert '70 Chevelle. '94 saw Bill defeat Dave Lyall '69 Mustang 2 out of 3 and again defeating Red Alert '70 Chevelle. It is a shame that these old race cars have appreciated in value so much that few folks dare to race them. Hats off to the ones who do. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Tom , That's the first I knew the 69 ever had Stripper wheels on it!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Speaking of Stripper wheels, is this your car?

Like they would have a clue. Whats the going rate these days to have Harrell on the side and do you get free key chains with your yearly royalty payment ? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

I think he said this is 1 of 2 red cars equipped with the luggage rack. One having red interior and the other with black, makes it a 1 of 1. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

That's not a luggage rack, it's a polish spoiler!

Hemi with a luggage rack !!! That is really odd. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

I was just up on the other site an read Greg Carlson comments about Tom's funny car. As usual Greg you have it WRONG
again!!!! Nobody at the Gibb reunion told you the pic's were of it "red & black" and nobody told you the pic's were going to be hidden away period!!!! Enclosed is the pictures. I took a picture of them my self.By the way GROW UP AND STOP THE NAME CALLING. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bs.gif

Remember that it wasn't just kids that bought muscle cars. A lot of successful middle aged guys bought them back then. Although most were tamer like GTO autos, 442s with auto and air etc. This was a pretty pricy piece back then. No long haired hippie kid bought this one. And the dude liked red!
Speaking about Les. Should the powers that be decide that you would like Les to come to the reunion, I'd be glad to ask him. He only has 6 boss 429s, and almost that many E body hemi's. Not much of a GM guy, but a very nice guy.Bob, you'd like him. He makes guns that can take you out at 1000 plus yards. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

Sure, but he has to bring some thing neat, such as a Boss 429 or Hemi Mopar, and race of course. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Did you say 1000 yards? On second thought, he does not have to race. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

I think that I'd prefer to know Where he was sitting. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Dang it Kim, those were supposed to be top secret. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

BTW Greg, I too saw the pictures and the date(s) is Feb. 1969, not Feb. 1968 as you claim. Not bad for you though, only a year off. Of course, kind of blows your theory all to h-ll. Sorry!

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif Les was at the top of the hill with the 5 O mustang shootout a few years ago. He had as much back door stuff as Roush, or Yates. Gave it up after a friend of his got killed racing. He was a consistent bracket winner at Cordova, and other tracks before that. You don't want to run Les https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif
He worked for Springfield armory, then went on his own.
Sells very high quality fire arms world wide.
Les Baer custom fire arms, Joslin Il.
I'll see if he's busy over labor day.

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Don't you guys feel like you are talking to the toilet bowl ? Quit it already...Peace bruthas...Kim...if you feel like you have to go to the toilet...just use the one in your house instead of going there unless you want to buy a keychain or sticker for your purple car of course! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
Any more references to the toilet will be deleted.

World wide huh.. no doubt I do not want to mess with Les...I see why you are buds with him now, and why no one runs against you for Mayor. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Ken, thank you so much for posting the pics of that green 67 Camaro...what an incredible car https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Kudos aplenty to Mark for finding it and passing it along to Dave's very capable ownership https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif A very fitting end to an incredibly sad story https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Just as an aside to the story of the green Camaro, it was sold new at Glockner Chevy in Portsmouth, OH.
Know for high proformance cars, they also sold 10 COPO cars.
I too would like to praise Mark for making a sad story have a happy ending.
Virtue is it's own reward.

Re: Gibb Show in La Harpe
 

Thanks guys...it truly is an amazing car!
