I'd settle for a life-sized cardboard standup version.

If you pull a string near his neck, he will talk with a thick Belgian accent.

Zora stopped by my garage to look at the tankers, I told him with all that gas in the garage, no way he could smoke those nasty unfiltered Camels......

You have WAY too much money and time on your hands if you are spending it on something like this.

Looks like Zora's found a nice place to retire, nestled between your 63(?) and 66. Great cars and garage!

He's got four or five tankers, including a 63 Z06, and a 66 BB NO3, AC, N14 and every other option, and his wife asks him what he wants for Christmas?
Oh my goodness, you can't make this stuff up!

Darn, I don't have a life-size doll of Zora. But I DO have the memory and picture of him in my 63, and a grandson with a middle name of Ardun (ARkusDUNtov) in honor of Zora and his legacy.. Guess who will own my 63 someday.
