The guy second from the left in the second photo (Jim Heise, Chief Inspector) was my boss at the Chevrolet Pilot Line in 1967-69.

William,
Thanks for sharing. I've seen the first pic before but not the second. My 67 also white was built at the same time as the Shriner cars according to the VIN's in the Restorer article some years ago. I drove by that spot about four years ago while in St.Louis and it looks the same.

Maybe this has been discussed before, but are any of these guys still around ?

I wonder how long some of those guys kept those cars. What a cool time. Sorry I missed it !

My car was delivered ONE DAY before this event in beautiful downtown South Saint Paul, MN.....

I bet it was a little bit more chilly in St. Paul than it was in St. Louis that day.
