What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?
Went to a little local car show. Took both Demons this time. Had a good time and met some nice folks.
Then a guy walks over to see the 71 and we get to chatting. He was very complimentary about my Demons. Well, he brought 2 cars too. "Oh, which are your 2?" I ask. "Oh, the 67 Hemi GTX and the 69 Hemi 4-spd Roadrunner" he says. What???? :thumbsup::thumbsup: is all I could say!!! A pair of Hemi cars??? "Yeah, I didn't have any more drivers or I may have brought another or 2." Huh???
"Well, I have a bunch of them at home. But only one L023 Hemi Dart." He wasn't bragging, just very matter of fact. So he showed me some pics on his phone... WOW is all I could say!! So I had to ask what line of work let's you have 11 Hemi cars plus a dozen or so more race cars. His name? Steve Atwell! I never knew he lived around here but I told him when I was a youngster, I had DC catalogs and magazines with he and his cars in them...with the wheels in the air, of course! He just laughed. Really cool guy - glad I went tonight!!
