Pantera?
I bet Matt is trying to throw off everyone with the picture of the Chevy. I notice that he says "a picture of A car" and not " the car". Perry Mason, I am not, so I could be wrong.

I knew there would not be a Chevy in your future. I've told many people about that car after seeing it in Austin this year. I'm looking forward to seeing around the streets of Dallas!

Oh BABY!!!!!!!!!!! You have done it again!!
Gary,
I had a feeling you had your eye on this car, and I just LOVE it that we now have a 40 in the Dallas branch of the TCC! I can still hear the song of that sweet engine as it wove it's way around the hill country in Austin.
Hey, that baby is ONE FINE 40!!
Congratulations, my friend!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!
THE ESSEX WIRE GT-40 IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES. I HOPE SNAKEYES GAVE YOU ALL OF THE HISTORY AND MAGAZINE ARTICLES AND HISTORY OF THE CAR. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE CAR AGAIN. MAYBE IF I CAN FINALLY MAKE A TCC DALLAS MEETING.

That car was the only thing helping me find OUR car in Austin. I knew where Alan was parked in the first round of parking (facing the hotel) but when 70 cars pulled around the other direction I was lost. And MY there are a lot of blue w/ white stripe Cobras out there.  So as long as I could find the GT40 I was A-OK.
I'm rather excited to have it in the neighborhood. Alan and I were discussing dessert nights last night and he wondered if Monica was going to make it when you get the A/C fixed.
