This year I am thankful for two people in particular...John Moss and Steve Babcock.

For those of you who don't know John Moss was the lead engineer on a little project over at GM back in the early 90's. His efforts brought us the 94-96 Impala SS. If you really think about it, without him we very likely would not have a MM...

Of course we can't forget about Steve Babcock, without his persistence in this venue we never would have got our MM's to begin with!

The combination of these two guys created a whole new arena of automobile for us. Each has its own loyal following, but if we look at it as a whole entity...neither would be near as cool with out the other! You can't have a bad azz Chevy or Ford with out the other to contradict it!!!!

So CHEERS to these two gear heads, THANK YOU for reaching for a dream and not letting go when everyone else walked away!!!:beer:

It would have been cool to see them have both cars available at the same time, and them competing against each other with corporate backing!

That's what I said back when I first saw the MM write ups in MT & other mags.

I also think it would have been awesome if Chevy had kept production of the SS so there was retail competition between the SS & MM! Would have been awesome to see what the Camaro/Mustang like feud would have brought to the SS/MM!!!

Yep, I agree. I'd love to see both companies do another big beautiful car run again! Ford has the SHO now come on Chevy, make that Caprice available in a consumer version!
