Nice article, the person who wrote it was here a last month, asking about the cars in Sweden.

" I'm writing a story about the Monza and other H-Bodies for Hagerty's website. Are there many of these cars in Sweden? To see what I've written for Hagerty, just Google "Jim Koscs + Hagerty"

Congrats to Bryan and Per for your "Celebrity" It is nice to see a "Fair article for a change! It isn't reasonable to expect an article to be all "Unicorns and Pixey Dust" to be fair they have to throw a little "Shade", these cars weren't perfect by any means but the competion was just as "BAD" but often overlooked in most articles. I feel this was Fair and Honest, well written and shows the best we have to offer. Thanx for writing the article Jim K. and bringing it to our attention Chuck. Harry

Thanks for posting this, Chuck. I had forgotten to start a thread on the article here. Was too busy with the facebook end of it, I suppose. The writer did a good job, i thought of it. We spoke for a while on the phone then he send follow up questions via email. Could not be happier seeing our cars in print getting some much needed, positive, exposure. Jim also asked me to send phoso of this years MonzaQue so he can have them posted to Hagerty's facebook page.

I'm pleased they had input from some of our Forum members, and didn't rely on half truths and sketchy stats from a certain someone who considers themselves the ultimate expert in all things H-body that Hagerty usually uses. :wink:
The "fleet"-
72 Vega HB Drag Car -383/'Glide/9"(9.35@146.19)(5.94@117.28 1/8th)
77 Vega Estate wagon- project(someday)will have TPI305/T-5, S-10 spindles/axles
76 Vega GT- 400/4spd/9" retired from active duty(rusty)
06 Silverado 2WD ex.cab daily
03 Silverado 2WD ex.cab (retired)
06 Haulin' 20ft enclosed car transporter
06 GMC Canyon Shop truck
07 Colorado project( 5.3 4L60e swap)
99 Saturn SL1- wife's car
01 Saturn SC2- son's project
07 Saturn Ion Redline project
and 4 more Saturn "parts cars"
Note- the very act of listing all of these has made me realize I have some kind of problem.....
