[Shotimes] V6 engine model news/Red Cross news

[Donald Mallinson]

All:

For those that attended the Convention and ordered the V6 SHO engine 
diecast, the shipping is taking about 3 weeks longer than thought, but 
the engines (all 300) are on a slow boat from China (literallly) and we 
hope to ship orders by the end of September instead of the end of August.

For those that don't know what we are talking about, keep a watch in 
this space or the SHOclub.com web site for news about the public 
introduction of the 1/6 scale SHO Cutaway engine with separate SHO 
manifold display.  These will be announced in the next SHO Club magazine 
first, to give actual Club members first shot, and then on the web site 
for other SHO enthusiasts.

RED CROSS news.

Normally we wait till the all Ford SHOw in East Peoria, IL on September 
18th (all Fords invited, Special SHO Class) but due to the hurricane 
damage in the Gulf Coast Jan is getting the deposit ready for the Red 
Cross today, and we hope to get the $4000 to them by the end of the week 
at latest.  Then we will just have a fake check when we make the 
announcement at the show.

All Central US SHO's (or other Fords) invited to this car show and 
presentation.  I will do a cook-out at the Mallinson ranch Saturday 
night since they won't have the drive-in they usually have, if you want 
to come in early.  Stay at a motel or we can put up several right at the 
ranch.  E-mail me off-list first though so we can plan.
