The Model A Club of America, just finished a national meet in Williamsburg,
Va., I was not present, but the club I belong to, set-up a repair tent, for
any and all type repairs at no charge to the owner, remember these are 45
MPH 70 year old cars, and look at the distance of travel for some of these
cars, (VTR is too far this year dear, we can't go), I send this along,
thinking what a neat idea for LBC shows also.
