Just got home from the Chicago show. 3:00AM. Just beat the snow. But not the rain. Got the GMC washed. And put away in it's nice warm winter parking spot. This show is one of the major indoor car shows in the nation. There were cars from 32 states. They had over 41,000 come in the gate. The GMC display with our 78 Royale was a huge success. I had lines most of the time to go through it. There were so many positive comments to the show management. They already invited me back next year. They have a policy of not bringing the same cars back any closer then 2 years. They said that the GMC display was so much of a draw. They think it needs to be there next Nov. Then if that wasn't enough. A photographer from Hemming classic car magazine took lots of shots that he would like to see used in a feature story on our GMC. At the awards presentation came the real shock. My 69 Goodyear tire test Yenko Stinger Placed second in it's class. That was a week end. Bob Dunahugh

Congratulations - all your hard work paid off, big time.
I'll ask the standard question. Got pictures?
Now for the important question. Did the cruise control work?

great job, we need more of this. Right now the GMC is being exposed on TV
and other places. He's right for wanting to do some exposure in Hemmings,
good luck...

Should anyone want to participate in a show, get hold of me and I will
reimburse up to $30 for being there.
We need to advise people to go to Craig's list for source of coaches and
price range.
