A pic of a 66 912 that visited the airport. He was holding short in the taxiway for the big Chinook CH-47 that was in the run up area. Not a very social bloke who came across as annoyed when I attempted to talk to him. A very non-typical air cooled driver. Usually the air cooled folks are friendly and enjoy talking about such things. Must of been an off day for him. Although his white leather gloves were a nice touch as he drove off…

That was for a 976-sleeze, my car was in the few as well as I was in a Quiet Riot for MTV BITD as well and my Black SC was in a movie as well.

Mr Grumps has a hurt paw, trying to get him to the vet, but he takes off anytime he sees the carrier, plus he knows that it is well past time to lose his nutz. As a feral I never know if he will show up.

If I didn’t know any better, I think we have Mr Grumps brother. Here is the rub, our “Butthead” is the only cat I’ve ever had to attempt to sedate and use my thick welding gloves to help the vet. He is an arsehole, but he is our arsehole. He will rub on you one second, then try to eat your face the next….

If you ever talk to him, ask if he got that car off a foot doctor. Know a guy had one just like that

I did try, but he wasn’t having any part of it. Stated that “HE” did all the work and restored it. He could of just been having an off day

I’m pretty well versed with the ones associated with the airport. Didn’t recognize him or the car.

Good luck. The '68 cars had a lot of parts unique to that year. I loved driving my '67.
