<span style="font-size: 11pt">Hey John,

Good eye! Yes this modest drag strip is still active and shares the tarmac with the New London Airport, a few miles southwest of Lynchburg. Notice the temporary hut and starting lights. This was Wayne's favorite track which was 45 miles east of his home in Roanoke. Are you familiar with this track?</span>

<span style="font-size: 11pt">Here's another one....</span>

Special delivery from AZ to OH. Nice to have her back by my side. I am refurbishing my detached garage that will be her new home - will post a thread on progress in our Garage Forum. BTW, I used Sheila and Brian Poff (husband/wife team,574.849.8539) again to move my '69 out here and couldn't be happier.

Sam,

Glad you've got her back home.

Maybe we'll get these cars together yet.

Phil Woj.

Thanks all.

Don't I know it DC! She's been spoiled out in that desert heat. Good news is, she spent the first 30 yrs of her life back east! Just to be sure though, I'll throw an extra car cover on for good measure. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Woj: they are getting closer and closer - it's just a matter of time! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Bruce: Yeah - yeah, that Eddie is a big talker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
