I announced this at the May meeting, but unfortunately, I will be leaving the Club after filling out my term on the 2014 Board. My last meeting will be our Christmas get-together in December.
My Dodge Colt should be here within the next 2 or 3 weeks, and I need to start getting it ready for the spring 2015 show circuit and possibly a run in the Walter Mitty Challenge at Road Atlanta, so my time will have to be totally devoted to that.
The Colt has made it from Vancouver to Seattle, where it is in a race car specialist shop. It just got a new windshield, a rebuilt gearbox, some rewiring, and (best of all) the 2.0L stock Mitsubishi mill has been replaced with a 2.6L out of a Dodge D50 pickup truck. ;-) Some period-correct (1970s) driving lights have been located and procured, and the next steps will be some hard-to-find 14" tires, then a new paint job to match the scheme of the original car that I campaigned between 1975-81.
I'll give a mushy, sentimental (emphasis on mental) thank-you speech to all of you at the December meeting, but just a heads up for now that there will be an "opportunity" for someone new to serve! ;-)
