Was talking to a guy B Mac a few days ago whom you may remember from Endicott area.
He said he bought your 61 Bubble top Impala and that he had parked it on Harry L Dr. by the Dutchess Inn one night where it got rear ended. Believe he moved from the area about the time you were around Bill Graham Chevy. He now has a nice restoration shop in Raleigh NC. I can get the particulars before Henderson show.

Ralph

PS: forgot the Raleigh location

Aqua 409,

Ralph,
Are you going to the Henderson show? What about GoodGuys next week in Charlotte?

I am going to try to get up to Henderson for an hour or so mid day tomorrow, hit a little "speed bump" health wise recently. Charlotte is pretty much out of the question. Will you be bringing a car down? I'll give you a call when I get up there.

Thanks, Ralph

Ralph,
Sorry to hear of your health problems, I hope they will be short term. I'm not sure if I'll come to Henderson, depends on the weather. It has rained here all day. If the weather is decent, I'm planning to drive the '62 Corvette down there.
I still have your cell number so if I come down I'll give you a call.

Wally,
Glad you had a great time this weekend. Sorry I didn't get to meet up with you, I drove my '62 Corvette down there, didn't get there until noon so the place was already packed. I did get to meet Aqua 409 (Ralph) and his wife. Really nice couple and I enjoyed talking with them for a few minutes.
There was a vineyard there that had a display setup and was selling wine; my wife purchased a couple of bottles. When we got home I noticed that one of the bottles was a commemorative bottle that had all of the inductee's name listed so I have a bottle of wine with your name on it!!!
