The story goes like this. Last summer I was given the privilege to be able to get a vision line big boy. I searched all over the place until I found a no. 4014. I got the engine for $3000 and the owners manual was thankfully in the box as well. 

Fast forward to May 2019. My family and I flew into Salt Lake from Lubbock, Texas on the 8th. We were surprised to find out that we got there at the same time as the Big Boy, so we got to see her pull into the yard. The next day all of us woke up five in the morning on the next day, so that we would be able to get a good spot for the celebration. We got there about seven and sure enough there was Ed. He and another lady that was leading him this way and that lead him to a tent where they stayed in there for a little while. In the mean time my dad and I went over to the tent. Ed saw us and said hi and eventually came out. Latter on he came back and signed a book that you could buy in the station for another person and then saw me with my owners manual. He came over and he said, "Sorry my hands are little cold this morning, so my signature will be a bit sloppy." Over all, I took my manual across the states just to get a once in a lifetime signature from Ed and then bring it back in one piece.

Lucky for you, you were in the right place at the right time. Enjoy your engine and enjoy your trophy!

I had my '10 Camaro signed by Scott Suttlemeyer from GM. He was one of a small hand full of folks that helped bring the Camaro back from extinction. Even got him to sign the Dealer Camaro banner.
