<VV> Stock??? Hmmmmm. . . .

[J R Read]

Hi Seth,

I like those rules too!  And you've seen me run in a Stock class more than 
once.  And even win my particular class a time or two.

I've never participated in the Concours, so no comment there other than I've 
seen/helped others who did and admired them for the effort that they put 
into it.  I also learned a few things about "factory" stock along the way.

For example - did you know that the stripes (markings?) on a '65 license 
plate light lens are horizontal VS vertical (in relation to the car body) on 
'66 and up?  Did you care?

BTW - I am a member of SCG.
