    If FALCONEDDIE doesn't remember it then it never happened :D! How's things Doug? Cool 57 Stephen, I dig it! Oh and people have the nerve to call us Bluegrasser's hillbillies... drive thru Dayton, or Hamil-tucky. Man the gene-pool up there needs some chlorine!

    I live about 2 miles from the house it came from and to be honest I do not remember it ever being driven,I seen it sit out in the driveway occasionally but never on the road. It could have been driven during the Hamburger Heaven hangout days but I was chemically altered back then so all I remember are the Scott Sullivan and Pat Crafton cars since they seemed to stick out the most at that time.
