Oregon Imperial Meet



WhoooHooo what a great time!

I want to thank Loren, Les and Bob for thier great hospitality.  It was
great to meet Eric and Erik and of course Mikey and co.

We got to initiate Les by having her change plug #7 on her 67 Imperial.
Anyone who has ever done that knows what I mean.  I got to provide the
required ballast to lower the car enough for Les to reach the plugs.

The Car art store was VERY cool!  This is a must see for any car buff going
through Florence.

Les lead us on a scenic tour of the area, we got some good Imperial pics
along the way.

The car show was a little damp at first but it turned out just fine.  It was
good to see so many cars in attendance.

The Cruise Saturday night was very cool.  I never laughed so hard as I did
when at the taunting of the street-side crowd, he flipped the 64 into
Neutral and "revved it up!".  I think the thrust off the 413's fan took out
a couple bystanders.  Everyone had a good laugh at that...not the least of
all Loren.

The award winning breakfast at Les and Bob's was a hilight!  It was hard to
say good-byes but we did and Loren and I headed up the 101 Coast toward
Portland where I caught the Amtrak home again.

Plan to attend next year if you know what is good for you!

Hi All,

Last Call for the 5th Annual Oregon Imperial Meet at the Florence Rhody
Festival (on the central coast).  A big thanks to Bob Hoffmeister for
getting me the mounting clips (on very short notice) that I let go in my
door swap a couple of years ago... I now have my panels back on and ready to
go for Rhody days..   Brad (from Winnipeg) Loren (from Seattle) and Erik
(from Bend) will all be here later today, and most everyone else arrives
tomorrow.

We'll start Friday with a Tech  Session on Titanic, then a Victory drive
down the coast, followed by a trip to a new gallery in town, "Art Like a
Wheel"  that sells nothing but art related to cars. Then it's off to dinner
at our 50's diner.

The show is on Saturday, in the Emporium Center Parking lot, which is just
north of Hwy 126 on Hwy101.  We'll be meeting early in the parking lot of
the Cleaners on the corner of 101 & 126 so that we can all park together at
the show.  The show ends at 4pm, then its off to my house for a 6ft sub
sandwich and other goodies.   We leave for the Car Cruise at 6:30pm then
it's back for the Bonfire.

Anyway we all have a great time.... If anyone else wants to show up for any
or all of the festivities.  Email Me!
