Thanks for all your work on the NW GTG Bryan. I had a good time meeting everyone and touring the museum. Sorry I couldn't make it to the barbeque.

I don't have any great photos, but here are a few I took. The first one was taken inside the "Spruce Goose". The third one is the oil leak winner. The car that dripped the oil had been parked for less than 5 minutes.

There were no identifying clues in the picture. How do you know it's the organizer's car?

Great gtg, I had a great time and really liked meeting everyone that I did. Great event kast. Im looking forward to the next get together I can attend. My fiance, michelle, enjoyed what little time she had to attend (she has the silver 78 300d).

I am working on the pop tester design you came up with kast, copying it as close as I can. I need one for my home garage.

punk


rcounts get ahold of me on the ih you need built up. We are going to the concert up your way on july 6, but I am trying to figure out how to get to you and pick the motor up on the way to or from the concert. you already know my email.
