Like signing the Sept. issue of Brock Yates article "Street Racing" in Car And Driver in front of me for friends. While refusing to sign the Black Bird until I sell it.
I have over heard John tell a few people high 9's for the Black Bird while admitting nothing with me just to keep me in the dark. Jim Wangers always told his drivers to never show the other guy how much you have, just beat him by enough to convince him he lost.
Still to this day if anyone asks John about the old days he denies even being there! LOL.
I noticed another white '68 Firebird with the round port RA II was for sale on Ebay for around $250,000.00 when I had the Black Bird posted. Wonder if he sold.
I added a resume of the Black Bird. The local Detroit TV channel has photographed the Firebird the last two years while it was parked in Birmingham during the Woodward Dream Cruise.
Forgot to mention that last year while I was at the Woodward Warehouse I had George DeLorean and Win Brown both sign the sun visors of the Firebird and my GTO.
