It was great seeing those who attended. Very manageable group size...not small enough to feel kind of silly for putting a name on the event, but not large enough to need a more structured day.
The friend who drove my second car is Dan, owner/operator of RT Automotive Machine Shop in Leamington, ON which is a reasonable drive from the border. If anyone needs any of his services, I'm sure he'll be glad to assist. Exchange rate works in your favour, plus he's a good guy. He owns a crapload of vehicles and is familiar with the mechanical workings of just about anything. Facebook/ www
83 and 85 both were well behaved today. Dan and I did get away to a junkyard after food, upon us realizing one was open till 6. Those pics will go in their usual place.
We then found some opportunities to grab photos of my cars, since it's so rare that I can get pics of any combination of them together away from my house.
Meet-specific photos from me (others will go in threads for those vehicles):

It was a good time! Pics look great too. I'm realizing I should have posed like Matthew McConaughey on the cover of Lincoln Lawyer
