Re: chick with a 1969
Glad we got that cleared up.
I better go check my driveway and make sure mine's still out there.

Re: chick with a 1969
Welcome to the craziness.
There is lots going on in SoCal, make sure you get Chris Breyer to add your name to the SOCALROC mailing list, to keep you apprised of events.
Lots of backroads driving events this spring (my preference, as mine is of "driver" quality, and will be for the foreseeable future), more info to come on those.
Let the madness begin!
