Bristol speedway Aero gathering?

[RTDaddy]

Yep, that was the plan since I wrecked it in 97. Funny thing was I met Barry at a Charger meet in Va. a month or so before the wreck  and he got me some pix of the original 71 Daytona so actually I was planing on building a stocker then just the wreck hastened the idea.

Al,
Hadn't realized it had been 14 years since you got those pics and info.  If you ever get the chance, I'd like a couple of zeroxes of the sketches and measurements I got off of the K & K car for you, as I'm looking at building up a "parts body" for "vintage" racing.  For thos who may not know, "Highbank's" car provided a lot of info to moe for building the Daytona clone.  Thanks.

I can tell you that when we were invited by Tim Lopata to the Forge show,  Brent said one of his first questions was is it real.......he likes authentic cars for his shows.

I am just going to say that no matter how perfect or pretty a clone is you won't have the letters/numbers on the VIN or Code plate to say it is real and yes it does matter, I don't think any of the clone owners can say truthfully that they wouldn't like to be able to say their car is the real deal.

The clones have been welcome to most everything else, but face it there are places that want the authentic cars  

First let me apologize to Doug for getting twisted over this issue.As for clones I made it clear in a nice way to you thats not the cars I was looking for for MY gathering.Why you got offended over that is beyond me.I'm sure you would get offended if I posted Richard Petty was going to be  autographing items and you showed up only to see an impersonator signing away.

I have a pretty nice clone and I was in no way offended.  If you are putting on a show or display and did not want any Fords at all, and I insisted on entering a mustang.  That would be Just dumb of me!  If your show were in my area, i would be there to appreciate all the real wing cars.  It would not make me like my clone or appreciate the real XX cars any less
