Freddy Beach Sept 23, 2017

      It's hard to believe that the end on September is giving us blue skies in the high 20s. What better than to have a car show?!   Freddy's best hot rods, antiques, customs with a few oddballs mixed in, showed up at the exhibition grounds on Saturday to air out before the fall, and show off a bit.  Several FABACians visited to drool over the cars with 2CV Bob being the only one to display his car.  Kelvin and I had met up earlier and over the next while crossed paths with Stephen W. and Terry & Karen.
      I was able to reacquaint myself with Andy MacNeil, formerly of World Class Auto, now at his own Garage in Taymouth, Macneilsautohous.com (his website).  He knows old cars and offers a full service.  
      I also (finally!) met the famous Jerry Wilcox.  I'd followed a nice Jaguar XJS into the lot (drooling—me, not the car) and as we chatted I realized I'd heard these same stories from Joe.  It seems he's willing to part with the XJS for something under 10 Gs.   If I only had a bigger garage.
      While hanging around in a hot parking lot all day isn't exactly thrilling, I feel that this is a good opportunity to advertise the club and will lobby for a bigger showing next year.
