<VV> Think Pink [not Corvair]

[moonpie8n at comcast.net]

  OF  INTEREST [maybe] 



              A  woman  named  Connie  Catrell  ran  a  Jersey  Speed  Skiff , and  a  7 Ltr.  hydroplane  out  of  New  Jersey.  Everything  she  had  was  painted  pink , and  her  slogan  was,"Think  Pink".  She  had  buttons , Tee  shirts, pics , all  kinds  of  stuff  she  gave  away. She  came  along  in '66. Not  sure  who  would  have  been  first  with  the  slogan........ 

 Bob 

'67  Corsa 

'65  Monza

Almost an Ad..... 

The Think Pink t-shirt was done for the 2005 Iowa Mini convention in Cedar 
Rapids.  May have also been available in 2006 at the Yenko reunion 

KC Vair brush, I think, is the shirt designer -- MAY still be available see
