Any Pictures of the Festivities at the ECH

#1 Post by Jerry Henning »

For those of us that could not make it to the ECH this year, to those that did go, are there any early reports of the festivities and any pictures that you may want to share with us?
Thanks

It seems like no one took a camera?

The partcipants could select from a nice list of activities. I chose the Fay Butler tour on Wednesday along with maybe 12 others. This was a highlight for me as I have been trying to learn the art of metal working for the last 10 years while restoring Foam Car(63 T6B). Worst exterior area on Foam Car is passenger front fender. Coincidentaly Fay had a NOS one as used it to fabricate another one, which the group decided I should have. Next day was whale watch out in the Atlantic where my wife and I saw our first whales(about 18), and next day was a DUK boat tour of Boston. Had some great conversations with 2 original owners of C cabs and a 2nd owner of a C coupe, all with original paint. Car show on Saturday was held in a parking garage due to possible rain. Got some nice shots of the late Ken Daughtery's direct shift kit for by-passing the monkey motion linkage on PreAs and early A's. Re-enactment of the battle at Lexington was done in a parking lot, again due to possible rain at the planned concours site. Just got home, as we then went to Cape Cod for some delicious fried clams and touring, then through Rhode Island and Conneticutt(sp?). Next to my hunting camp in SW NY and then home. Great 2400 mile trip without the 356, as I ran out of time to get it sorted out after some major(to me) maintenance projects this summer.

This is the Fay Butler event. Phil is in some of the pictures. He is the good looking guy, not ugly like the rest of us. :P
