Car Photo(s) of the Day: C1 ‘vette with Famous Passenger edition.

Keeping with the Montana theme of the last CPotD, this image was shot not far outside of Virginia City, Montana.

An odd thing about my personality: I am generally LOUSY at remembering people. This includes people who are “famous” or have “celebrity”. Many times in my life (more often then not on car rallies, but not always) I’ve sat down, and introduced myself to somebody, who turns out to be somebody I should have known anyway! It was certainly the case here. At Virginia City this person and my father were sitting and talking on a pair of rocking chairs while everyone else on the rally explored the quaint little semi-ghost town. I was intent on shooting photos of cars and wandered by, and introduced myself. Oddly, this gentleman recognized my name, as a colleague of his had mentioned me to him a few days earlier(!) I had no clue who he was. My father filled me in later after we I had made this shot. Can you name the person?

If we get a discussion going in the comments I’ll tell you others I’ve stumbled into in a like manner.
