I was looking over the 67 Impala and realized I had restored the engine compartment in that very car around 1981 when the car had 25,000 miles on it. Floyd removed the vinyl top from the car after that. Class guy for sure.
----Was that Super Chevy Sunday at Indy? I met Floyd at that show and sold him a couple of things and that started a long distance friendship. I visited his museum several times and he was always there enjoying yakking to whoever bent his ear. Just a wonderful man and special person!
