Just got the Feb. 2017 Bugle. Great article on Jim Shiels 66 GS collection and his annual "Bash."

I will watch for that, thanks! One year I'll have to make it out there for the bash too.

That's definitely gonna be on my bucket list. To see his collection. Jimmie even picked up a local 66 Gs from my area. And dove it across country  to his home recently.

That one is on my bucket list also. We should get a group form the area and drive out. Loren and I wanted to go last year but things got in the way. Thanks Bill.
