Hello from what used to be the great state of CA - Sat Sep 28 2019 12:44 AM
Hi guys and gals, (sorry if I offended anyone with my gendered language)
I mainly joined so I could sell some of my stuff. Now before you tar and feather me I was one of you at one time...but things happen. To assure you I am who I say I am (there might be a couple of old-timers who remember me) I'm including a couple of ways to check me out. I'd give you the links but that conjures up all kinds of computer terrorist thoughts of bugs and viruses, etc. in the mind of a web master. Here's a condensed version...
My name is Dale Morris. I produced the first collector car show that went national and international. It was called World of Collector Cars. It was broadcast on approx 200 PBS stations each week for about 10 years, also syndicated in 11 countries. It was the best job in the world. I'm on LinkedIn, just search my name and the show name. My web master posted 4 or 5 of my old shows on YouTube, once again they'll pop up if you search my name and World of Collector Cars. Also listed on IMDB.
My dad worked for oil companies practically all his life, and he hated them. But a lot rubbed off on me so I grew up with grease in my hair, gas on my breath and skinned knuckles. My career of choice was broadcasting which lead me to start the TV show and meet some of my hero's, Shelby, Big Daddy Roth and others. I also collected a lot of "stuff". A lot of it is gone but I still have a few items left that someone may be interested in.
I know...why am I not still doing this terrific job. Long story short, got a divorce, my other half was the bookkeeper and...well let's just say the books were not being kept the way they should have been...but that's all vodka under the bridge. You make a choice and you take your chances. Live and learn and all that. Still love old auto/gas related memorabilia just don't want to take it with me.
Over the next couple of weeks I hope to document the "stuff" I want to sell since my son is not interested in it and if the kind moderators will allow me I will post pictures of it.
Thank you for listening.
