Bob Weir's a great guy. Donates a ton of time and money to various charities around the Bay Area...including a number of Summer Camps....and you rarely hear a word of it.

He scoops ice cream and makes root beer floats every Summer at the A's game to support kids Cancer programs. The Grateful Dead took a big hit when Jerry Garcia died.... but it's amazing, the remaining members still play together and usually it's to sold out crowds.

Glad to see he drives a Vette!

There are more of us than you think lurking out there (we just don't make a lot of noise).

I suppose that stating that you "Want to be buried in this car as it is lit on fire" sounds pretty cool but it would be cooler to me if he washed or allowed someone else to wash his "coveted" car.

Somebody teach those young whippersnappers at Motor Trend that '63-'67s are STING RAYS. According to some late '67 Chevy ads, the '68 is also a Sting Ray, and that's another can of worms.

Not "Stingray". That's '69s through whenever, check C3 section for exact details.

The Geezer has spoken.
