There is a common myth that identical twins are always on the same wavelength.
My twin brother Jerry and I (Jim) do all the written content for MyStarCollectorCar and sometimes we approach owners with a story already written by the other twin.

The message for us is simple: we need the twin ESP package to avoid going over the same territory.
The Peach City Cruise is a major event, but somehow I gathered a story about a 1956 Ford Crown Victoria done by my brother Jerry two years ago at the same show. Beautiful car-but not the first time MyStarCollectorCar has done its story.
On the other hand, the massive number of vintage rides at the Peach City Cruise provided ample opportunity for us to get some impressive future stories for our readers–including a 1970 Olds 442 convertible restored to factory original standards by its owner.
Look for the car’s entire story in a future MyStarCollectorCar piece.
A 1966 Rambler American with a female owner caught our attention at the show. It had a factory six-banger that provided enough horsepower and reliability to give the little compact plenty of performance for its owner and her husband, a very dedicated AMC guy.
Our readers will enjoy its complete story in a future MyStarCollectorCar article.
We are most of the way there for the story behind a 1966 Dodge Coronet sedan that bonded one brother to his late brother since the late 1970s.
The restoration process was not easy, but it was important to rescue the car for sentimental reasons. We plan to reveal the entire story in a future MyStarCollectorCar article.
A 1956 Hillman Californian was a very unique addition to the Peach City Cruise, and we were able to connect with its owner for an educational interview about his rare British compact car.
Our readers will be educated in a future MyStar piece.
It was hard to miss a bright red 1965 Chevy Impala resto mod, and we were fortunate enough to connect with its owner.
The car is now an untamed beast with many upgrades that will fascinate our readers in an upcoming article about the stylish Impala.
Another show star was a 1973 MGB resto mod with a wild new powertrain. This car performs well beyond a stock version and is engineered to handle the massive upgrades done to it.
The MGB’s complete story will be revealed in a future MyStarCollectorCar feature.
A 1952 Chevy 2-door sedan has also undergone a major transformation, including an old school paint job done by a very famous name in the custom world.
Learn about his identity in an upcoming MyStarCollectorCar article.
On the other hand,a 1966 Volkswagen van’s owner is a more-power kind of guy but has not hot-rodded his German microbus.
Learn why in a future MyStar piece.
There was an extremely rare 1958 Mercury Voyager two-door wagon at Penticton.
This one has an amazing history–it was a great find.
The final addition to our long list of stars at the Peach City Cruise was arguably the most wild-looking car on our list. It was a 1967 Polara 500 raised up to jacked-truck heights but still on its stock chassis.
Curious MyStarCollectorCar readers will learn the how-and-why behind this vintage Mopar’s new look in a future article.
Stay tuned for all of these stories on our front page. They will be worth it.
