Arcadia man Chuck Misner, 77, reunites with his old muscle car, his 'Lil Chevy Wonder, a 1966 Chevy II Super Sport. He originally bought it in 1966 and won many drag races with it. The car's current owner is Joe Staffilino of Steubenville, OH. Misner went to see Staffilino and got to drive his old car again. Misner provided Staffilino with original sales documentation that authenticates the vehicle. Staffilino has been offered $100,000 for this rare car, but he won't sell.
