My father in law was in passenger seat while going on stage and had a blast.

So they were talking about your car just before break, and Rick is one of the commentators, i believe he was interested in buying it as i heard one of the broadcasters say something like "here comes a 72 el camino, uhh rick?...." and thats about all i heard iirc, so yeah, he might of been interested in it ( for the right price lol)

I got back on Friday eve. Would like to have stayed for weekend, but too many things going on around here. A little over 2k miles of driving round trip but was worth it in many ways. The car went to a new home, I got to catch up with a friend from H.S. who was selling his Austin Healey on Friday eve. I also had a great time with my Father-in-law and got to watch him enjoy the hell out of himself as well.
I think he is going through a midlife crisis, he bought a 4 seat Polaris Razor....

He found a couple ladies to wish the car farewell as it was in the staging lanes.

Nicely done car, and you built it how long ago? I was surprised that the cars didn't get roped off like they used to. I understand that potential buyers want to look over the car but it got a little crazy on "family day". I heard there was one owner just about to have a meltdown with all of the people and kids walking around his car.
I figured that once I signed the paper work and sent it in, the car was no longer mine. It was sold, just didn't know the price.

The guys from Fox Sports2 dug it too.

I was on stage when your car went through. I also checked it out in prep. Very clean.

Anybody see II Much up close? It looked good on TV, but I'm wondering how the years have treated it...
