We worked the autoshow in the Convention Center four hours today. Very enjoyable. Talked to some great people.
On the stand were a Bentley and a later Lagonda. An L29 Cord was in showroom, condition, '31 Caddy V12 rumbleseat roadster looked good and made for some silly questions. This has the 45 degree OHV engine whereas the later ones, where engine compartment height, not width, was the problem. reverted to the cheaper, wider and quieter flatheads. ] (and the gd deloren!)
Looked at a few new cars later. Asked the Didge people if they might lift the station wagon roof a bit to make it more usefull, at a decrease in beauty for that option. No way! Looked inder a Subaru hood. Damn, that made me glad to be driving the CDR.
Dinner at Corvettes, digging the sounds of the fifties, eating fish&chips and drinking Newcastle Brown.
Lots of nice people in the hobby!
