> I had a great surprise today. The Oscar Meyers Wienermobile was in Reno for Hot August Nights. They were filming some promotional commercials for the company. It all happened because of Vance Piper. I was displaying the Ultra Van #228 at Hot August Nights in Reno. Vance walked into my van. He has owned a award winning early Corvair coupe since he was 16. He now has grown daughter. He was there to help photography a Oscar Meyers commercial. I told him I wanted to take a photo of both the Ultra and the Wienermobile together. So later, he phoned me that they were 2 blocks away from down town Reno. So I drove over and got these photos.

I would follow the Wienermobile, then pull to the right of it and coming to a stop at a stop sign. I would look over at Wienermobile and tip my hat, then pull off the right as the Wienermobile pulled ahead. WOW! What a thrill. I was told they would furnish me a link to the footage. When I get I’ll post it to the group.
