Default G. Gordon Liddy Dead

Just noted that the mastermind behind the Watergate burglary, and an early celebrity in the ZR-1 world has died.
Early NBC show today had a pic of him with his 90? ZR-1.

My brother in law came down from MA to join me during Carlisle 2014. G. Gordon was our ZR-1 Net Registry tent and parked his ZR-1 with his famous license plates with our group. RIP G. Gordon

Yep I saw the obits for him. Disappointeted that none mentioned the ZR-1. And yes I remember that great --or should I say GR8--license plate. --Bob
