One of Copper’s favorite (?) and most frequented places - Putnam’s Harbor at Lake Murray, SC - getting her fix of hi-test no-ethanol gas 🙂.

Thanks all for the welcome notes - and no, Willie, I'm not having to sell the house just yet. That sign was at one of my wife's listings. In my retirement, I am her "reluctant assistant."

Hello! I am a new member and have just received the long-time "club famous" Copper 1971 SS454. I had long been looking for a 1970 Monte Carlo similar to one I had while I was in college back in 1981. It was Fathom Blue with a bench seat, chrome hubcaps with double white stripe tires and a 350. My dad had bought it new, and when he passed in 2019, he was probably still a little upset with me for having sold it. In any case, when I saw that Aaron Dodsworth was selling this one, I just had to ask him about it, even though it was a LOT more car than what I had been shopping for! With my bride's blessing and prodding, I bought it, and it successfully arrived this week. Here are some pictures of it coming off the truck, then at home in Chapin and later at the Lake Murray dam. I also included one of the car while "doing work" - posting a sign for my wife in Columbia. All these are before washing off the dust of the trip, yet the car is truly beautiful. I've already run a tank of gas through it - smiling at all the thumbs ups and the yells from others in traffic. I've also read through the documents and receipts highlighting the other members' prior work and care for the car. I will do my best to be a good steward. Not sure I'll be able to capture the quality of the professional level photos and Canadian backgrounds that Aaron has posted in the past, but South Carolina does have some of its own nice backdrops - so we'll see. I look forward to meeting other members of the club and I much appreciate the resources I've already used! Jim
