Tina, Sorry to hear about Rons passing. Ware Mass is one town away form me. It's a small town. I know nothing about that dealership as it may have been gone for a long while (I was born in 1970). I will ask some older guys when I get to some shows to see if anybody knows anything about it.

I did manage to find an add that Medallion took out in the Hardwick High School yearbook online.....

Truly sorry to hear about your loss.
It is great that you are keeping it in the family and showing it in AACA.
There are a handful of AACA members here in the forum. If you have questions,  ask away.
As for the GM Emergency Kit,  the normal rule of thumb in AACA is to not display an unattached accessory unless it is in original condition as you will get a one point deduction for condition. But since you already have your Senior, a one point deduction is no big deal. Never seen one on a Camaro,  but the two I have see were right next to the spare.
BTW, those kits bring a small fortune on EBay!

Thank you for the advice!!! The kit has all the original parts with it and is in the original GM box. The box is a bit brown from age, would they take points off for that?

Possibly, it would just depend on that judge. Again, it is just one point, and you could get 50 taken off and still get a preservation.

Tina, I was at AACA HQ today and Rick was telling me about these two cars. We are waiting to see them at Hershey. The race car class would be good for the White one. You get to show off on Friday in the stadium too by taking a few laps while they describe the car and it's history. I live VERY close to Hershey show. If you have any questions contact me off the forum.

Thank you!! We won't be able to make it this October, but we will be there next October with the red one. Still working on Estate stuff so our hands are a bit full, but we will be there next year!!! This is the car right after it was finished.
