Sad note is that several folks in the pics have passed away. Each one had a unique/interesting past. TIME is short, get to know your folks & learn from them.

Nice!! Well done!!

Particularly like the Roadster on the cover page, looks like ours only we have the 19" rims not the 16 inchers.

Great work on the site!

Good point about getting to know folks Bill. We seem to lose people with knowledge of old cars every month.

Jeff, That Roadster, a really nice restoration, resides just around the corner from me, along with a PRIMO '47 Ford Club Coupe.

A few years ago, two blocks from my house, I accidentally met Parker Gillespie, founding President of our Sierra Chapter, in 1962. What stories he told me, I could write a small book about him & his escapades!
Later, I heard that Parker cut the entire front end of a Model A, right behind the radiator shell, & made a wall hanging out of it! It had part of the wheels/tires, fenders, radiator, lights, bumper & even a horn. Must have taken a lot of skills & HARD work to do that !!!
At a National Meet in San Francisco in about 1963, Parkers' '30 5 Window Coupe won first place, for the best UNRESTORED CAR! I'm still trying to locate the car, as his Son, Parker Jr. died also.
