Members of the Leland Chapter met on Saturday, December 15th, 2018, at the Ypsilanti Automotive Heritage Museum, 100 E. Cross St., Ypsilanti, MI 48197.
After a brief chapter business meeting, President Brian Baker started the afternoon off with a tribute to GM designer and design educator Bill Porter, who was in the audience. Author Jerry Burton then gave a presentation on his 2002 book Zora Arkus-Duntov, the Legend Behind Corvette. Jerry’s detailed talk was followed by a lively, informative and very entertaining panel discussion and Q&A session by former Corvette designers Jon Albert, John Schinella, Kip Wasenko and Ben Salvadore.
Over 65 enthusiasts were in attendance to witness automotive history, live. For additional coverage of this event, read Pat Bisson’s article on page 7 of SAH Journal #295
