Don Metz owned the brown car to the left of Mark's and he ran a 1600 with a 110, if I'm remembering right.
I believe that you're correct, Doug. Also... last I checked, Don still has the car. He lives near me, so I suppose I should go and find out.

WOW! I'm surprised... I thought Don would never part with the '68. Any idea how much he's asking? That car was built over thirty years ago... SUCH a great piece of Cal Look history.

I remember Debbie Becker as well. She brought her black sedan over to Brad's Upholstery to have the interior done. Brad did the seats in black vinyl with a white/gray/black plaid inserts with gray carpeting. She was nice!

Debbie Becker, yep she was fine! As I recall Keith Goss went out with her for a while? Bill you'd know better than I would. You should have been at Doug's Saturday!
All the best!
