PTC Mercedes Excalibur gains mileage

In 2008, David Christensen of Pine City donated a pearl white Mercedes Excalibur, a "kit car," to the Pine Technical College Foundation. The car, actually a 1979 Chevrolet Camaro under its flashy exterior, is used in parades to promote the college. Most recently, it was seen in the July 17 Chisago County Fair parade and again in the Aug. 7 Pine County Fair parade.

"It was very generous of the Christensen family to give this kind of gift to the college," PTC President Robert Musgrove said. "It certainly draws a lot of attention to the college at public events, and that is precisely our intent!" Musgrove added.
