Overheard at a car show

I like this thread, a lot of good stories. I had a yard sale a couple summers ago. Some guy was asked me what I had in the garage, when I told him it's a 64 Valiant 225 slant with a factory Hurst shifted 4-speed, he told me a story. He said in 1966 he was doing so well at the track with a Hurst shifter that George Hurst introduced himself and coincidentally at the same time some big wig from Chrysler did the same... and thats why we have factory Hurst shifters! I guess he didn't hear me when I told him it's a 64. I just let him ramble. We need people like this, it's amusing.
