We are officially less than a month away!

I am happy to say folks are still sending in registrations and just yesterday received one from Paul and Sue Ann Cornwell of North Las Vegas.

Paul is well known for his innovative '56 Executive with the most unique pushbutton shifted three speed manual with overdrive I have ever seen. The car sports dual quads, hydro-boost power disc brakes, and many fantastic touches such as Caribbean interior and hood. Big Kev and I had the opportunity to visit with Paul, Sue Ann, and Craig last November while on a mini Packard outing and enjoyed the hearing all about the long history Paul has had with the car and how it evolved into what it is today. I am sure the attendees of the meet will enjoy the chance to see this car and meet Paul first hand as much as we did!

I've been pushing hard on the '40 and think it will be ready to bring, so I hope to have both the '39 and '40 there. I hope everyone that is bringing a car is enjoying the usual tinkering before time on the road.

More updates to come!
