It's great to see my car in Car Craft, but would have been nice to have some credit for such a good-looking Chevelle. The young girl in the center of the picture holding the "Rev It Up" sign in the November issue is my daughter, and she will be into musclecars in 20 years just as much as today. The car goes nowhere without her.

Thanks for the input, Scott. When juggling so many cars and power runs, it's easy to get crossed up. We actually ran the wrong photo. But since you sent us your info, we decided to run it, too.
