Not that anyone gives a flying fig but I have had the wonderful experience of having actually sat in the Predictor back in the late 70's. Was in South Bend visiting the Avanti factory (this was shortly after Nate Newman passed away). When I was on my way out of town I spotted the Predictor thru a showroom window and locked up the brakes on my rent-a-wreck right in the middle of the street! (that's how little traffic there was in SB at the time LOL)

Pulled over and parked, went up to the museum's door and found it locked. Looked thru the window about to cry in my soup and saw someone sweeping up. Tapped on the window and pleaded like the sniveler that I am and he actually let me in!

He let me and my buddy look around and even let me sit in the Predictor (which some of you may have surmised holds a special place in my empty head). Sorry that I don't recall the gentleman's name at this late date but I'd like to thank him if anyone can figure out who this may have been.

Just my unsolicited drivel, carry on, nothing to see here.
