Michael Brown Productions recently uploaded this trailer regarding a documentary of the 50th Anniversary of Le Mans. I feel he did a wonderful job and would love to hear your thoughts on his and his teams efforts: YouTube - 1960 #3 Le Mans Corvette Historic Return Documentary Trailer.

Lance, this is excellent! It does a great job of telling the story. I only wish it was a longer video! I, like thousands of others, have followed the posts, the magazine and newspaper articles, the blogs, etc. and get very excited each time something is presented. You should be very proud, as I am certain you are.

Lance;
I had the distinct pleasure of chatting with your dad at one of the Corvettes at Carlisle events. This was before he bought the #3 car.
I already knew of his passion for Corvettes, but as he spoke I began to realize that your dad was also a true visionary. It was like he really could see into the future, at least regarding Corvettes.
As we finished our conversation and shook hands, I remember thinking that Chip Miller is defnitely one of the people who deserves to be entrusted with the responsibility of preserving and maintaing the history of Corvettes, and significant Corvettes in particular.
The record speaks for itself. Your dad took on that sacred trust with a passion, and along the way perserved and maintained the historical aspect of many significant Corvettes. He was the right man for the job.
Your efforts with getting #3 to Lemans, reuniting the car with John Finch. etc. (as well as your efforts on many other Corvettes) have convinced me that you are indeed your father's son. The passion and committment remains alive. The legacy continues.

Wow.....looking forward to the movie. I was fortunate to see the #3 at Kevin's shop all stripped and again when it was finished and first displayed at Carlisle. Your father was a great man with a great story and your following in his footsteps.

Well done Sir, well done.
I appreciate your very powerful message. I could never express through words the love and admiration I had for my father, but he was certainly one of a kind. I often take clubs through our garage on mini-tours and each time I mention the same thing "good things come to good people". I feel strongly about that statement, my father didn't have a bad bone in his body. I was lucky to have him as a father, mentor and best friend. This project wasn't the easiest one to put together, but the reward was out of this world. I know he's looking down and proud of what we accomplished.
Again, thank you for your kind note.
Sincerely,
Lance
PS I'm fortunate to be involved with a hobby I'm so passionate about - my father paved one heck of a path and I'm loving each second life has to offer!
