I had the honor of sitting down with Gerry Coker during the 2008 A-H Conclave in San Diego and videotaping a conversation I had with him. I finally edited it all together and have posted the conversation up to Youtube.com.
The first link is to Part 1, a bit over 14 minutes long:

And the second link is to Part 2, again a bit over 14 minutes.

I hope you guys enjoy hearing the words right from Gerry Coker himself and I can never thank him enough for allowing me to tape him and make it available for the entire Austin-Healey community.
Enjoy and please, let me know what you think.
Well Steve I was impressed by the editing, the montage of relevant images and the the fact that you had such a relaxed and comfortable conversation with this lovely old gentleman. I had the pleasure of seeing Gerry on stage with Bic Healey the year before at Conclave Burlington. It was a fun Q&A session but Gerry didn't appear comfortable in the 'Game Show' atmosphere of that occasion.
This filming of Gerry in a relaxed conversation is a gem of historical importance and will now be available forever by posting it on the internet.
Thank you
