The old Ridgefield meet will be held Saturday 11. .. Its off rt. 84 to rt. 7 to rt.107, Lonetown road. , 5 miles in. . show on the left at School. Hope to see some of your guy's there. Will be there from Fordbarn,, Scott Mc.[upstate N.Y. in God country:p] Timothy K.:D[ short drive],Tim O.:rolleyes:[Mass.] And me...:eek:
 
Can't make it Peter but are you going to be a Sturbridge for the N.E. meet next week? I live just next door so I'll drop in a few times. Barry B.
 
Peter: Can't go tomorrow, the Mg club is coming here for the annual picnic.
Barry: I just checked weather.com and acuweather, and both say rain friday and saturday for sturbridge. :(
 
Yes, I'll be in Redding, never will equal the days it was in Ridgefield, but it is a good location. That hill on Rt 107 will give your A a good workout.
 
Bob [Roadster62] [That Hill on rt. 107 ] is child's play compared to my [Tinker hill ].Ask Scott N.Y .. He stayed over my home to attend the Redding meet. He had a 4 hour drive to get to my home.
 
Show was GREAT, had more fun meeting people than really looking at cars. I rated the following cars good, better and best, I was once told this body type was rare but it outnumbered all others at this meet.

Well Mitch,, i don't know about the best is far right? I did not place First,Second or Third at that meet for Model "A" class...l.o.l. But the first 180A pictured is owned by a 22 or 23 year old young man who's father owns WWW.DRAGONECLASSIC.COM who deals in high end cars. And out of all the cars that passed thru his fathers hands he loves his Model "A Deluxe Phaeton !!!!!:D Never came off the frame and pretty complete but somewhat worn out ..But yet young Alex will fix it up and enjoy driving it:). The second 180A pictured is a old restored car. Bought about 3 years ago from a locale used car paper for under $20,000.00 [nice deal:rolleyes:].The third pictured 180A is owned by some pain in the *** owner from N.Y. who does not need anymore awards from locale meets. I proved my work in a National level.:p.A gentleman with a Black "SUPER" drop dead restored 1934 Packard V-12 Conv.Victoria by Districh,[a $500,000.00 car+] came up to me and said thanks for the help on line:confused: [emails] He also is in the process of restoring a 180A. :D First time meeting the man..A very nice day...
 
Can any of you guy's tell me what day they show the cars there at Sturbridge? I was planing on driving up from Seekonk MA on Sunday. Or is that too late?
