Matthew, Stefan and I spent the day galavanting about Philly - first to the Simeone Museum of racing, then to the Melrose Diner for burgers, Independence Hall, and the Comcast Center. Everyone's crashed out, but tonight is cheesesteak night! I can't wait to go back to work tomorrow, so I can get some rest...

I was in the same place today!
We are still very tired from the long trip and we are checking the inside of our eyes.

Dan - That Hudson Convertible is beautiful. There was one at a car show I went to a couple of months ago up in Port St. Lucie and there is another in John Staluppi's new museum

There is one here in NY that is a RestoMod Custom. Its a beauty. The fellow said it was beyond saving to restore so had to let him slide. Hope to see more of it. He took a best in show at our Elks Club extravaganza!!!

Let me know if you will be traveling to the Mystic Connecticut area while you are visiting in the States.
Mystic Seaport is closed during the week but has tours of the sailing ships on Saturday and Sunday at 1:00PM.

Hey Dan,
Check Facebook!
That's where I found them running up and down I-95.
We missed getting together - but there's always a chance we can do a drive-by at Carlisle.

Matthew sent these pix yesterday, from the Norwich Classic Car Museum. Matthew, where's the '59 SF?
Today, I expect we'll see pix of the Junior!

We are finishing the crate there, basically screw the sides to the top and bottom and we are done.
Matthew! Where are the fender skirts?!?

No fender skirts on this one either. We want to see the white walls!!!!
Hopefully it will arrive soon as it's loaded with parts.
And then we can make a new side by side picture
