Larry, sorry we missed you there. We are goin' to Columbus next month. We had
the black '32 roadster in the "winners circle" on Sunday. It won the
"Preachers Pick". Linda is a great ambassador for the sport and her great
personality is just one of her many assets. I first met her at the Detroit car
show in I think, the 60's. I have a photo of my fueler leaving the line at
Indy with her and her entourage in the background- it's a cool picture!! We
hope to see you at one of these events.
John B.

John I wish I had known that you was going to the Indy Goodguys, would like
to have talked to you in person. We go every year and is one of our favorite
event. Get to look at a lot nice cars and when you tire of that go watch the
nostalgia drag racing or swap meet. I know most of the guys that run the
Willys in the nostalgia gas class. I have a 40 Willys coupe that I would like
to run there someday nothing serious just to say I run at Indy. Met Linda
Vaughn (Miss Hurst) at the Columbus Ohio hot rod reunion two years ago and my
wife took a picture of us. She was at Indy this year as the grand marshal and
signed my picture, this is a very friendly lady and seems to like what she
does.
