    I saw that truck, in a garage down one of the side streets, along with a few Packards.

    I was driving down I-69 today going to a sales call about 10:45 am. I was between Muncie and Anderson, Indiana. In the distance I saw a familiar shape of a Maverick heading my way. As it got closer, I noticed it was the rare light tan color that me and Doug Bauer had talked about at the Roundup Nationals. As it got REAL close...I noticed it was actually Dale Suich....heading home to Michigan. He must have spent the night in Indy. Go Dale Go!!

    That would have been a real coincidence if it were another 8H car!

    Wish I had the data plate info from the 74 my mom bought new. It was a light tan with a dark brown vinyl roof.
