The car is lovely. GM’s pioneering front-wheel-drive car. I hope whoever buys it gives it the same TLC that it has obviously received.

Thanks for all your help with preserving and promoting the Motor Parkway, John.  Its the people behind the scenes that really make things work.  You’ve always been there and nobody will be able to do it like you! 

Best of good times in Florida and enjoy your next phase of life!

You’re losing a good man, Howard! I’ll miss seeing John at the events you bring the cars to, and the short, though informative conversations I’ve had with him in the past. Safe travels, good luck, and a very enjoyable retirement is wished to John and Dottie in Florida.

Hey John,  Once again the best for you and Dottie, it was a pleasure to work with you on Motor Parkway research and projects over the years.  All Parkway buffs are going to miss your presence at our meets.                                                                P.S. I hear there was a Motor Parkway spur in some part of Florida, please check it out. Al.
