A few years back, I took my MKIA to a All Chryser Performance Show.
At
first they would not register my car. Finally the old guy running the
event
looked at the pentastar and a sales brochure happened to have
let me in.
They parked my way way in the back next to some guy
named BoB Eucher in a
Simca.
I did not win an award
At this years British Car Fest, a driver
showed up in a FIAT Toppalino.
Had documentation that while designed in Italy
by FIAT, it was built and
sold in England. He claimed att Toppalino were made
in England. Took
his charity donation and parked him with the other odd
cars. I told
people, The festival was a Car show for Charty. If the driver
thinks it
a British Car, take the money. But I still think a Citrone is not
Britihs.
The Rolls crowd objected to a Springfield Rolls too.
541 enthisists
drove up and 2000 spectators. We had a great time.
All the cars started and
left under their iown power. Except for a
Jaguar XKE 2+2.
My favorite car
was the 1929 Supercharged Bentley Convertible
AKA Steed's Averenger car.

Subject: [Tigers] Sunbeam Link....
Some of you may not have
seen the information posted at the "Allpar" (Mopar)
enthusiast site regarding
the Sunbeam marque. It is interesting that they
acknowledge Chrysler's
ownership of the brand (albeit for a brief period). I
have not yet had the
"nerve" to show up at a Mopar car show with my Mark II
(complete with the
Chrysler pentastar on the right front fender). Any of you
guys taken your
Ford powered Tiger to a Mopar event?
