Once in a while an assignment will end up being way more fun than you can ever expect. With the famous person name on the assignment you walk into them a little leery however because you never know how much additional baggage you will have to wade thru.
The name Ruth Buzzi and her car came across and I started to smile just remembering all those "Laugh In" skits from when I was a kid. Had not seen anything about her in a while so I really was not sure what to expect and as funny as she is it could not possibly be a Cadillac or some other conservative sedan could it?
When the writer Laura Meyn and I show up on her ranch, we meet her husband Kent Perkins and what turns out to be only one of the stable of cars the couple own. A gorgeous red 1964 Corvette, just as feisty as the comedian herself. In beautiful but driver condition and a rumble that could make any car fan salivate.
After spending a most delightful morning with the two of them and a couple of dogs that helped with the photos as well I have to admit they are one of the most delightful couples with none of the pretensions you would expect from the entertainment industry.
