    I'd like to offer my greatest appreciation to European Collectables and Jeff Trask for a fantastic evening...

    More tomorrow...

    Cheers,

    -sobs- That was such an awesome Speedster before the incident. EC's owner's personal car, IIRC, and obvious that no cost had been spared. I was hopeful the earlier pic of a black Speedster was it being reborn, but alas...

    Sunday morning came pretty damn early ....especially when you room with Lars 'the Swedish Buzz Saw'... man that guy can snore...

    The day started out REALLY foggy, we were barely able to find our way to the restaurant ... when we got there there was already about 20 cars parked and guys have'n breakfast... Another 5 trickled in buy the time we were ready to go ... 25 SRegistry/RGruppe cars and people all signed up and pre-paid at Denny's ... this went like clockwork thanks to Ray C. and all the participants do'n what they should do........ THANK YOU ALL

    We caravanned the 1 mile to the event and at 7:30 sharp Jeff let us into the display parking ...... few things turn out like they are supposed to ... this did......


    Parking the cars in the fog....

    Thank you for the praise, but there are few that need to thanked besides me:

    Pete McNulty (356 Club) helped with every aspect from the EC party, swap set up, move in and finally just about every thing that happened on Sunday.

    Bob Lee (356 Club) figured out how to get every single swapper and vendor that showed up in 1.5 acres. Some said the space was too small, but Bob never had a doubt.

    Some of the lessor seen players were from all the clubs. We had 912 Registry, 911 Registry, R-Gruppe, PCAOCR and 356 Club memebrs all over the place working their butts off and it seems to have paid off.

    As I said, it could not be done without the Porsche community stepping up and lending a hand.

    Awesome job by all!
