**Chevyland** · 09-23-2021, 09:19 PM

Bam….
Didn’t expect it from someone in the south west

Pm me your address
But you’ll have to wait till I get home
For me to mail your prize

57taskforce · 09-23-2021, 09:20 PM

If Memory serves me isn’t that the one that he sold pretty early and was lost for quite a while.
His car tastes have always been something interesting to me. I love that old panel he had.

Lol I don’t really count as southwest i did originate about 12 hours from Memphis

CG · 09-23-2021, 10:01 PM

Every true car guy knows about the Volo Museum.

I subscribed to Hemmings back in the late 70's up through the 80's and Volo was in there a lot.

Writing this reminds me I bought my 61 Lincoln Convertible through Hemmings. I loved that magazine ... What we used before the internet (and the little five center want ads)

LockDoc, Dieselwrencher, Chevyland.

Nice to meet you Eric. Ryan and I know each other pretty well. Thanks for joining us Ryan, we had a nice visit.

LockDoc

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-24-2021, 09:13 PM

Eric, it was great to finally meet the man, the myth, the legend, Cheyenne Super finder. I mean Chevyland.

It's always a great time at Leon's place
He has a great collection and is a great host. Enjoy the rest of your trip Eric. Take some pics out in Utah if ya would please.

**Chevyland** · 09-24-2021, 09:53 PM

Hey you guys,
Thanks for inviting me into your part of the world
Leon, I hope you find time to set up your train trip
(Don’t wait to long) your hobbies will still be there when you get home
Thanks for dinner

Ryan, enjoy every moment with those kids, before you know it, they will all be out of the house
And, next time I’m through, let me go with you to that barn to see if the orange and white truck has a legitimate spid

**72 tigger** · 09-24-2021, 10:05 PM

Great pic of you guys- where’s Daisy??
Glad you could get together

**Chevyland** · 09-24-2021, 10:16 PM

I let her out when I arrived
She loves to see it all
As you can see, there was a lot to explore
But it’s hard to have good conversation
When you are worrying
‘Where did my emotional support dog go’ ?
…………….

Went here before I got to Leon’s yesterday

http://www.friendsofcedarrock.org/new-page

It is about as good as it gets for a FLW
Original building
Basically the same as it was when it was built 70 years ago

**Chevyland** · 09-25-2021, 09:55 PM

And another well preserved place of Americana

This is an interesting one. I am not familiar with it. Clearly there were priorities that drove the design. It looks to be a place that was designed for people to entertain quite a bit during the summer months. A lot of effort to use natural ventilation and screening, including the vines. Wasn't too sure about it, but that neat little secret boat launch sold me on it, haha.
