Yes, Jer, Gary did do Richard Carpenter's 300C and a lot of his other cars in his "Yesterday Once More" car collection. And Gary is still in my nighly prayers too. He is just one of the nicest, most humble and fun guys I have known. I was able to talk with both Richard and Karen Carpenter when at various car shows back in those early days here in Southern California (they lived with their parents in Downey). My mom was still alive then too, and she and their mother always talked a lot when my parents attended car shows along with me from time to time. I never suspected that Karen would have ended up as she did. Just trajic. Richard seemed much more aloof though while she was very down to earth. That was a long time ago......................
