Hi Ken, I wish I could make it but it's just not in the cards... I'm sure the three of you will have a good time. Take lots of photos.

Ken, I drove our '51 F-1 up to Charlotte in April for the Charlotte Auto Fair and combined Lincoln Clubs Meet, I had too much fun then, don't want to overload...

Ken,
You know I'll be there with the '48 Convert. Bringing a high school classmate friend along. Driving the '48 from Wexford, PA (Pgh). We may even do some of the trip with the rag stowed if it's decent weather.
See you this Saturday.

Sounds like there will be several 'Barners in Charlotte! That's great!

Marcus...#6 is good, but Shelly wanted me to remind you that she and Mac are #3! LOL Looking forward to meeting Margretha!

I'll be there with my son Jeff, who has been taking an active interest in our 36 Phaeton, as well as early V8's in general.

He's a NASCAR fan and we plan to get there early so we can tour some of the race shops and attractions.

We've both signed up for judging duties; his first time, but I judged @ Connecticut last year. Judging is a really efficient way to increase your knowledge of the cars because you come in contact with others on the team that have so much extensive wisdom about the models you are judging.

Looking forward to seeing you old codgers.

Henry
