			Ken, All I can say is it was worth the wait to finally see this car in person as well as your Chevy II that I had not seen before. You do some extraordinary work. As my roots to the SS427's go way back I was dying for a ride or drive in the car (and I VERY seldom ask anyone for that) but could not bring myself to ask for it but seeing the car in person was enough to start my heart once again. I was also told by several people that Eddie would have given me a ride in his ZL-1, just wish I had the guts to ask.  It was great spending time with you and Paulette and enjoying all the pictures on your laptop. That is what the shows are all about. Rick

			Couldn't agree more.  The photos (although excellent) just can't capture the feel of seeing the car in person.  Since Ken was running in ten different directions at once last weekend, he probably didn't hear most of the comments made by all the folks who inspected the car.  The overwhelming response was, "Wow, this thing is incredible!"  Of course, we were always willing to chime in with total agreement and give a few details of the project if we were around. Maybe the crowning accolade was when the Gibb ladies requested Ken to display the car right next to Helen's Nova in LaHarpe. (Could also have to do with the fact that Ken & Paulette are just great people  )

			     I do have to say that after Driving the Biscayne.....It is a perfect "Balance" of ride and Power...It is a "Joy" to drive as it rides beautiful, and with the 3:90 Posi, has the ability to stay in 4th gear in city driving and just accelerate as needed......this is my first 427 car and I now see why C.O.P.O. cars were introduced......"There is a Big difference between a 396 and a 427"..........Way Cool.....And I would always be happy to take anyone for a ride......"Just ask"..   I also went thru the gears Yesterday and    Ken
