Is anyone planning to go to Dobson, NC on Saturday?

A friend of mine is going to take his XK-140 and his son is going to come up in his GT. We all will be running along together with my red car trying to keep up from behind and not smoke out those two good looking cars.

I'll be bringing a Big Long Tow Rope too!

John seems to know where in Dobson it is going to be but I have no clue, any details?

I wish I was able to go but will be working on the B, getting it ready for primer.

If there is anymore in the near future in NC please let me know. Hopefully I will have the car up and running by the end of May or first of June.

Liberty, eh? I went to HS for a while at Guilford SE and lived in the caretaker's house for the long gone bird lodge in Climax across the rail road tracks from the old post office/store. There was a Model A Ford sitting in the five car garage when my parents bought the place, but it went away shortly afterward. When we moved I had to leave my perfect, at least to begine with, 49 Austin A40 two door as it was in complete bits after I had started to mess with it. :-( Jack

I'll be there for the car show Jack. I was hoping to have the '74 MGB ready but alas, it is still a few weeks from being complete. So I'll be going under Toyota power. Hope to see you there. Looks like it's going to be PERFECT weather!

Jack. Here is the map of the local area around Shelton Vineyards. This will get you there, take NC 268 at Wilksboro toward Elkin to I-77. Go north on I-77 to exit 93 and follow the local area map.

I'm leaving Saturday morning in the 64 and driving up with my neighbor Stan in his MGA. Anyone from the Charlotte area is welcome to meet up with us. Hope to see everyone there.

I'll be the guy with the red roadster parked over behind the wash building. If you think I am going to park my heap next to your car you have had too much wine. LOL Jack

Jack, your car is shiny. Mine is old and rusty. Park next to mine, it'll make yours look brand new!

The no top kinda sucks. Just got in from a 45 minute drive home in POURING RAIN and the cold. The car is essentially flooded. I need a non-ripped tonneau very badly. Oh well, at least I had a blast and you get some strange stares along the way. :D

That sort of thing allows youthful rebellion to show through without finding yourself in jail. Some girls will think you are an idiot but others will think your are pretty cool. If they show any interest though, ignore them for a minute or two and then yell out your telephone number. :-) Jack
