4 Alpines and 2 Tigers showed up for the Rootes paddock yesterday. Tigers seems to always place higher than Alpines in the peoples choice awards, so I was happy to take third place. Maybe next year I'll borrow some Tiger badges for my car.

A total of about 150 cars were entered. They ranged from the mundane to the exotic. There was a very nice race prepped Daimler SP 250 from Oregon (drool) and a Jensen 541R that I had seen in Monterey last year (more drool).

One of the guys with a nice Series II Alpine had a set of the old black and yellow vintage California license plates that he gave me. All in all, a very nice day.

Maybe I'll see some list members at next year's show.
