[Nobbc] Marin Sonoma Concours

[wendell bain]

Hi Steve,

Think I saw you at above concours, but didn't recognize you until you  
wandered
away. I was judging and a coat and tie in that heat don't help. At  
least that's
my story and I'm stickin' to it. Saw your Daimler. Looked great.
Some very interesting and amazing cars in attendance. the Alfa 8C  
Competitzione
is really a nice looking car. I'm sure it goes as well as it looks.

Are you going to Sears Pt. for the Wine Country Classic next weekend???

All the best,

Wendell
