Thanks Tony! 

You've been an awesome supporter of both the hobby and the site for a long time. It's been guys like you that started and maintained this years ago, who have inspired me to build the site and keep things going.  I'm hoping that the next generation of owners will continue the tradition and we'll simply pass the torch onto them someday.   :icon_thumright:

Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays

"Thank You Chris"

As a newer member of this site I can't believe the cumulative knowledge and support this site provides to our beloved mid 60's  Buick A bodies and others.

Having read most of the site threads I feel like I have more information then I ever had during my entire 70's and 80's GS ownership run.

My newly acquired 65 GS convert and I THANK YOU AGAIN for being such a driving force in making this happen.

Mdkd,

You've certainally made my day with your posting.  This shows me that we've come a long way as a group and we are reaching our goals of building a repository of information for the 65's and creating a warm and welcoming environment for owners and admirers to share and ask questions.

It always feels good to look back on where things started and where they are going.  Everytime I see some one step up and take on the reins, I'm reminded of how we are a growing community of car guys (if only a small group) and we are recognized and heard more today than previously.  The car shows that only had one or two 65's show up are now seeing as many as 5 or more cars as the result of members organizing their participation. 

The passion to perserve these Buick's and their history only continues to grow which I know is important to each and every one of us.

I'm sure Steve is looking down on all of us with a big smile on his face.   :angel4:
