    That's a gorgeous car you have there. Any chance you could direct me to some more pics of it? Thanks. John B.
    P.S. Is that blue a Grabber color?

    Hmmm....I have pictures of me standing around a short shiny metal barrel with a few female specimens but none of my car. That must be why mine sat idle for 10 yrs.! Boone was a great place to go to school.

    Plymouth Trace Parties, Howard's Knob, Kingswood Parties, College Place Parties, Sollecitos Pizza, Margarita night at Tijuana Fats in B-Rock, Lunch at Boone Drug, Hanging at that place...can't remember the name...on 105 toward's Banner Elk, old dam with a hole, jumping in the creek, working at the tree farms before T-giving.

    Oh, sorry guys, only Stephen would know what I am talking about!

    I love Stephens car. It is fast, pulls the wheels, and looks good. I like the blue paint alot too, for some reason.(y)
