If Vince sat in this chair for any length of time, then we know the reason for his early retirement.

Mr. Cook was flat on one side when he stood up from this, left early complaining of a sore rear end, or something closely akin to me being a pain in his rear for complaining about the deals he found. We banned rare396bronze from attending two days in a row for the same reason - like a human vacuum cleaner of good parts. Partsnado -

All in jest -

Thats funny. I brought the same chair to the last car show I attended with Jack92584, and Zak, and they were giving me a hard time, saying that my chair was a "classic", and it looked like I got it from the titanic.... ;D

That chair was worth every penny after I left my good chair at the house..  lol  It was also better than that park bench me and Snatch "borrowed" from the fairgrounds for Stones River..  Felt like I had slept on a bed of rocks after sitting on that thing for 2 minutes..!!..  And dont let Steve fool you..  I didnt walk away from that swap meet with any deals..  I couldnt sell a heater to an Eskimo yesterday..  Saturday was definitely the day for sales..  And yes the Camaro bloodhound was in full action Saturday so we left the Scooby snacks at home so he wouldnt follow us..

Yes; collapsible wooden chair.  Next time I see the guy I might see if he can do some Camaro chairs or maybe if there was enough interest CRG chairs.?.  But that would have to be approved from the CRG gods...

Did anyone get a high definition shot of the chair's trim tag and partial VIN stamp?   ;)

Only problem with the chair was it has crack. It might could be sleeved. On the bright side at least it was a stick. Rut Row
