an old friend from the GM junkyard in Rockville Md, where my son actually worked for a couple summers......years later on......so my old friend George talked of working at a Chebby dealer early on, when the Vegas were new and how the guys and himself signed off on sloppy repairs NOT in accordance to GM requests for window/cowling repairs on the Vega rust issues..... THAT told me a LOT about stealership operations..... this shit dates back to the 70's yet.....obviously.... |

I wonder if LocoVette could get a train car load of new Vettes "lost" somewhere.....preferably in the Houston area.

I got this close to a truck load of '08s, but the quality of the pic isn't as good.

You know, back in those days a trainload of Vettes must have been a real sight considering almost all cars were American and the variety of sports cars on the road was very limited.
