Yarwood ◊ 2022-03-02 05:42	In 1968 GM and Buick had a ( USA/ National ) "Paint a Opel Kadett" contest with High School Students. The contest theme was related to Opel's "Jungle" animal TV commercials. I was the person who designed this car paint job, and organized a group of my fellow high school students for this competition! My name is Kim James Yarwood. My High School was named "Starpoint Central School" located near Lockport, NY USA. I remember my High School Art teacher telling me in that Spring of 1968, that "WE" might be up to winning a award for best designed painted car. But, I never heard anything after that, because I was off to college in 1969. Someone told me years later that the car ended up with Disneyland documentary film and was featured in their parade. I sure wish I had more information on what happened to that National competition, where the awards went and what happened to this car? kimjamyar@yahoo.com I'm 71 years old now living in Grand Island, NY 14072 Thank you -- Last edit: 2022-03-02 05:45:23
