And I think I remember just who those Levis were for, but I'm not telling.  It would be a MASS mistake should I do so...........   Grin Grin

i am glad my topic led to these stories (maybe not the full content, but hey) Grin
keep sharing

i am also almost certain that the two cars although they have different plates are the same car. the rearvieuw mirror is the same and is (now) a part that is quite hard to find and i think many people don't go through the trouble of changing or locating a different models rearvieuwmirror.

  Well, what can I say....  I do remember those HUGH Levis that were purchased and given to Doug (The Mass) Gordon and ended up on the wall of the clubhouse.  Dean, remember "leadership" also requires stating the facts.. Wink

I'm pleased you enjoy the stories and I hope others do as well.  For me personally it brings back some really great memories and fun times when life was much more simple and carefree.  Youth, sweet youth..... Smiley Smiley Smiley

The red car I believe to belong to Rick Winter as his was lowered in the front.  Don Crain's was not and it always sat rather high up front.  The car third from the right is not Dave Velton's as he was not active in the club when this photo was done.  I'll think on this one and see if I can come up with a name.  The Clemtine (orange) car on the far right might belong to "Mr. Music", Steve Liekus.   I don't think the Corvette belonged to any one associated with the group, but just happened to be parked there.

Jason,  I'm aware of this as Ron tells me that every time I see him, BUT I think he is beginning to like the growth...  Cheesy Cheesy  Maybe if he cut his hair it would take some weight out of the car and he could hit the mark.......   Undecided Undecided Undecided Undecided

The ol' man's probably scared after reading the Old Testament story of Sampson cutting his hair just to please a woman... and losing all his strength! Cheesy
