Carlisle report



Hi All.
The 67 must have been first because I had the second place winner my 68
Imperial convertible white with red interior.
I had a great time this year sorry that I did not get to spend a lot of time
at the tent this year.
I was looking for parts for my next project it is a 1972 Dodge Monaco wagon
I have been looking to one for awhile.
The BBQ was great thanks to all who put it together.
There was another group there that I belong to it is called the forwardlook
list and it is for 55 to 61 Chrysler cars so there could have been some
there at there tent.
Hope to see you there  next year.
Bob Hanekamp
