Must be selling a lot of converters.

Mark Yacavone · 10-27-2012, 02:00 AM

Yep...The glitz and glitter of Glendale was not really my style.
I feel more at home with the common folk in P.V

Jim, if you had just showed me the house I might have believed it but Mark would never own those cars. He's got better taste than that.

Jim
From what I heard, NHRA is going to block Mark purchasing this as it is a flagrant use of funds (as they see it).

Yeah ,there was too many "foreign" cars there for me..I pushed that old ratty convertible out back to make room for a 62 Super Duty Catalina.

Hey Mark, I used to have a 62 Catalina.............I raced it and won more trophies
than an car I had....P/SA I painted the side of it "Limp Indian" and Farmer Dismuke would not let me run at the US Nationals.......go figure. I'll find a pix and post it. Besides that, if you moved to PV.....good for you. I hope you enjoy it. Personally, Donna and I bought a home outside Wittmann, 7 miles on Patton road. It is an acreage, no noise, no one screws with us....just the way I like it. Mark, come on out some time....send me a pm...you are welcomed.

Couldn't be Mark's he would have sold the Cuda and Vex whatever for some Mickey Thompson Catalinas or a couple of dozen of Pontiac Trans Am and Firebirds and the garage would be square to install wall shelving to double up the space.Claude

If Obama sees this, he may levy a 'too many muscle cars owned' tax.
