Group; I have it on good authority that the next issue of 
Hemmings Classic Car, the February 2011 edition, will have 
a six-page spread about John Fitch and the Fitch Sprint 
project. The photos included will show John at his home in 
Lakeville, CT and at the Lime Rock Park racetrack. The 
feature car is none other than the CPF-owned and recently 
resotred 1966 Corsa Sprint coupe. This car was John's last 
Corvair-bodied "demonstrator" and he hadn't seen the car 
for at least 38 years! We also had the one and only Fitch 
Phoenix on hand so I hope there will be some shots with 
both cars and their builder, John Cooper Fitch.

Mr. Fitch is 93 years young and has been is pretty good 
health up till recently when he did have to make a visit 
to a local hospital. He is back home now but if you are so 
inclined please keep John in your thoughts and prayers. 
Thank you. - Pete Koehler
