    Would that have been anywhere near Walter Soplata's farm in Ohio? Walter Soplata was cut from the same cloth as Walter Medlin. Soplata started collecting rare WWII aircraft long before anybody cared about them and they were stored out in the open on his Ohio farm. http://s96920072.onlinehome.us/Fea1/101-200/Fea182_Walters-Farm_Williams/part1/Fea182.htm

    I have been lucky enough to be around/see a few of them.
    The ex-Surtees car from NY (sorry I dont have my GTO book and and dont have the SN) is at LRP pretty regular. I was able to speak at length with the mechanic about the car. Great to get so close to them. Some day I will ride in one.

    Here's the best one!
    Burton Morris (google him) did this for my birthday. He knows how much I lust after a GTO and he and my wife planned this for me.
