Dearborn G N Meet The Grand National Meet was everything Alice and I hoped for. Hooking up with old friends and finally doing a face to face with e mail and phone friends from far and wide was the heart of the event for us. My seminar went pretty
well, I wore my Bubba's Tshirt so at least a little part of Jim was there. Now it's time for some catching up in the shop. Charlie ny |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet We got home noon yesterday and work was waiting for me as usual.Got to see old friends. I always enjoy the National meet. Next year Auburn will be a good meet also.

Re: Dearborn G N Meet Vivian and I were glad to meet up with CharlieNY and Alice and share a few meals with them. Always a pleasure. We got to see lots of friends we only get to see once or twice a year. Seeing old friends is good as seeing old V8's or even better. JimOH

Charlie, Sorry I didn't get to see you and talk a little bit. My only chance to be there was on Wednesday, and that happened to be the day that most cars were at Greenfield Village. Looked like only about 10% of the cars were at the hotel. I still enjoyed looking at the cars that were there. I was looking forward to chatting about carburetors and learning a little about the '32 - '33 Detroit Lubricator carbs. Sal |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet Charlie's seminar packed the house - I heard many great compliments about it. Thank you!
Also, a big thanks to Jeff Horrocks (Very Tangled) for stepping up at the last minute and providing super audio-visual support for Charlie. Ken |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet Jeff's AV setup really made things go well for me. I will mention here that I dedicated
my effort to Jeff's DAD....Henry Horrocks, never was a finer man...... Charlie ny |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet Some of us are still there! Enjoying the Greenfield Village Motor Muster. EXTREMELY hot today and that cut into attendance at the Motor Muster. About 15 members showed up -- not like Saturday when we had over 50! Enjoyed the presentation on how the V-8 was developed. Especially liked the 'Past in Review'.
Thanks to all that showed up. The swap meet with Charlie and Alice was great. Lots of interesting stuff -- including all new old parts from Dennis Carpenter. National Meets are a big part of the Early Ford V-8 Club-- let's have many more!!! Gee, I still have 619 miles and a ferry ride left to go. For those that were here, glad you made it home safe. |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet Charlie, It was great to see you two and thanks for your hard work and dedication to this hobby. As much as it is a business we are lucky to have the expertise of guys like yourself to help us understand the simplicity of the stuff we complicate.

Re: Dearborn G N Meet Charlie, Good to see you again. I really enjoyed your seminar. Thank you for putting on your presentation. I may not get to see you again in person but I hope to talk to you on the phone.

Re: Dearborn G N Meet I saw this post on the EFV8 Club site >"At this time I am calling on the board to release a statement as to what happened at the end of the meet. The only facts I know are we are left with no chief national judge and a bunch of ugly rumors. Might also be nice to know who voted for this and why. If no one is willing to go on the record then we need some change. I go to these meets to escape this crap"
Anybody know anything about this?.... |

Re: Dearborn G N Meet [QUOTE=HOTROD_WILLIE;1641497]Wow, I heard something was going down with national judge. Man I can believe this. I am sure the Early V-8 will fix the problem. Thanks for the information. Plan on making some phone calls tonight to find out want happen.[/QUOTE
Why do you have to be so negative to the guys here who enjoy the Early Ford V8 Club? If you don't care for the club just ignore it. I don't care for hot rods but I don't rag on them here. |

Re: Dearborn G N Meet I posted that on the V8 forum. I hope the board is formulating a statement that will work towards repairing the damage. When I wrote about there being no chief deputy judge that was the what i was told from a credible source who called me today to say it was not the case. It was said in haste but rescinded when given more thought.
I'm asking that there be no further discussion here or anywhere else until the board give us a statement. I hope it is addressed by the end of the week. It needs some serious thought. |
Re: Dearborn G N Meet Seth his not worth it ,it's his MO.Dont let him get you kicked off here. What a great meet , thanks Charlie good seeing you and your wife.God bless you guys

Re: Dearborn G N Meet Ken Bounds is one of I look up to when I go to the National Meet. He always treated me with respect and does his job as it should be.
