My brother started this car club because his whole life is american graffiti . he has had 3 clones of the 32 milners coupe and one of the 55. 20 years ago he told me some day stars from the movie will be friends of ours. his wish came to be at the summer nats. candy clark and bo hopkins were getting out of there limo at the hotel. we had the 32 and the 55 there at the door. candy got out of the limo and said bo look at the cars over there. we started talking and they spent the rest of the weekend with us and our cars at the show.to make a long story short.they have been our close friends its been 5 years now . they do a lot of car shows with us. boston world of wheels The big block show. at that one george barris was filming the road show done a episode with the graffiti knights car club with bo and candy.we done cruise nights with them.2 summer nats. and the big e show.and many more. they wanted to be members of our club they are jackets and all if you see them at shows they will be wearing them. my brothers wish came to a head when paul lamat was in east boston car show saw my brother coupe asked my brother if he could take photos with the car he signed the dash next to candys and bos. so i have photos to share.

They are a couple of great people. I saw them at "Back to the Beach" in Ventura, Ca. I got autograph pics from both hanging in my office at work.

you have some really cool cars and it looks like you guys know what your're doing. You asked for opinions on the corvair, no doubt it would be fast as you have it planned but to be honest, building a tube frame so you can put a big block in it almost seems un-original. Don't take this the wrong way, there wont be many like it, it will be a lot of work, very different and cool when it's done. But I almost feel like any car can be dissected and mounted on a custom frame. Which would mean the corvair is really just a shell. I think the car would be way cooler if you did some serious tweekage to the horizontal six. Those are cool motors. Just my opinion.
