  This issue's member spotlight is on Steve Brody, aka "Brody" ("that's all you need to know"). He has a collection of six '65 Chevelles, including an SS hardtop, L79 Malibu convertible, 2 dr wagon, El Camino, an SS convertible, and his current project, a 300 Deluxe 2 dr post with big block. Most are in show condition. He is 54 years old and lives in the Fishers area with his long time girlfriend. He has never been married. Steve was born in Los Angeles and grew up in Southern California. He has been a truck driver, bartender, worked on a 47 ft sail boat off the coast of Mexico, race car mechanic (worked on Eddie Cheever's crew when they won the Indy 500 in '98), and now has a window washing business.
  His first car was a '64 GTO and has also owned a '61 Falcon, '40 Ford pickup, '34 Ford with big block, '67 Camaro RS/SS, '70 Z/28, '75 Grand Prix, '69 Eldorado, '68 Nova, '65 Mustang fastback, Mercedes 450SL, and '72 Monte Carlo.

  Tom Mikesell has the rebuilt 12 bolt back in his '67 SS with a 3.73 posi. The 3.73 makes 5th and 6th gears of his 6 speed trans more usable now. He's also in the planning stage of stretching the cab of his Studebaker truck for more legroom. Conceptual photos will be in a future issue.
  Rick Hornback, is making progress on the Lenco trans installation into his '69 SS. He currently has the trans mocked in place and is fabricating a crossmember. He hopes to have it ready for some "break-in" miles in April. That might explain the sudden increase in tire marks around Brownsburg then.
  Steve Brody's '65 300 Deluxe post sedan big block project is now completed. See pics on Page 4.
  Tom Farrington is accusing John Henderson of having some sort of mental disorder that draws him to buy numerous cars on ebay that he has only fleeting intentions of finishing. Tom recognizes the problem only because he and Deb suffer from a milder version themselves. John in turn agrees that Farringtons have a milder version for driving thousands, maybe millions of miles for a $300 parts car.
