Hi Warren,
Would that be the maroon car? I really like that car.

I go whenever I go up to Pigeon Forge for the fall rod run. If you like Pontiacs, he has a large Super Duty collection from 59 to 63. He also had a 69 Kingswood Estate with the L72 427. Nice cars!

Floyd is a super nice guy and the museum is really fun. Ive been restoring a 68 Camaro, Corvette Bronze, and Floyd happens to have a very nice one in there. I ask him if I could "cross the rope" to take some close up pics of a few items on the car to help me. He took me out there and said he appreciated me asking because some people do just that without asking. Well worth the few minutes out of the way in my opinion. Kevin

You're right Kevin. I've admired that car since the first time I saw it. My 68 RS/Z28 is Vette Bronze from the factory - a much over-looked color - and is refreshing to see among all the red, blue and white cars.

Good luck with yours.

Great to meet you there yesterday Jim.
As usual, great collection of cars, and nice to hook up with a fellow yenko.net member.
Hopefully Jim will post up the pictures of the yenko, 2 ZL1s, motion and berger cars that are on the floor at the moment.

The Yenko was a yellow camaro, owned by the same guy a long time. I am sure several know the car and owner, I just can not remember the name on the marque. One of the 69 ZL1s was #25. It had N50s on the back, cool. It did have headers though, some of you purists would have not liked that. LOL

Phil,

Yes, that was the burgundy car I took to Floyds. I will have to find the picture and mail it to you.
