Paul,
I've been stuck on the ring outside D.C., so I'm used to traffic jams, if one can really say that.

OOO-KKaaaayyyy.......

We'll see what you think of L.A. traffic when you arrive and hit the pavement.... It might be the same band, but they play "different music" on the roads out here...LOL!

Welcome!!

Awww thanks Paul and Neil, I look forward to meeting members who I feel like I know already from this site.
Singing::::::::We gonna have a funky good time!::::::::::Okay so only half of you recognize that song.
So who will join Neil and I for dinner on Friday the 18th? It would make sense to do this near Knott's.
~~~~DD.

>We got our reg. for Knott's in but We have nothing for Galpin. Could you help us out with that ? I can't seem to find anything on that. THANK YOU

Go to the thread: "New Mailer Coming to you", and there is a (split) photo of the page about the GAS/Galpin Event. Just let me know if you're coming, and how many--and PM it to me. No admission, just show up (and we'll feed you!).

No place in mind yet but notice that Neil and I are going out to dinner on FRIDAY night because I am picking him up at the airport that afternoon. SATURDAY night would be the night before Knott's....I don't know what folks are planning for that, which would be after the Galpin event.

Donna,

I would like to add my name to the list for Saturday night dinner along with my cousin. Claim Jumper sounds good to me.

Cheers!

I think Donna was trying to clarify that the plans she has with Niel are for Friday night, not for Saturday night.

I don't know how many would be interested, but I have a membership at a cigar bar in Lake Forest where I will be on the Saturday night (after Galpin's) watching UFC #83. Anyone interested is more than welcome to join me.

Neil & Donna are having dinner Friday evening (restaurant unknown!) and anyone wishing to join us is welcome.
Saturday night dinner would also be great (restaurant unknown!) after the GAS gathering. As a stranger in town, I'm open for suggestions as to where.

Note to self: "don't invite Arlie to dinner".....(or maybe we could help him eat a whole jar of Vegemite?) LOL!!!

Anyway...for those of you that have made it this far in this thread, here's a surprise. This is only a teaser--but in celebration of the event being at Galpin Ford in L.A., here is a glimpse of the March 1968 Newsletter.

And guess what's on the front?

And...that car is in the registry, too. It is a very, very early car. It has hood stripes, Marchals, and is Candyapple Red.

And of course, this 4-page newsletter will be in my book.

p.s the women are from a local "charm school", the guy is comedian Rex Benson.
