Wow, what a nice weekend! Rick & Mary Lynne, Milton & Annette, Darrell & Tom, Wally & Lu Lu and I drove up Friday and joined the Mississippi club for lunch at Roux 61. Danny & Randy met the North & South Shore group and caravanned up with them. (see Benny’s post)
Later Milton & Annette, Darrell & Tom and Wally & Lu Lu and I toured the Longwood Antebellum house – the largest octagonal house in America! It was impressive. Then we had a very nice reception that night at the Grand Hotel.
Saturday the BR group put together our Valve Cover Racetrack while cars filed in. Of 48 cars, 27 were BMCNO! Very laid back show – but too quiet. They never plugged in their sound system, no announcements or music…
Our Valve Cover races went over really well and had 9 valve cover racers. Danny won by a photo finish. Literally! Benny won Valve Cover “Best of Show” with his Rat Rod. Many BMCNO class winners – Cathy added them below.
Saturday lunch at the Pig Out Inn and that night a lot of us went to Fat Mamas for Mexican and a bunch of the South Shore folks went to Monmouth Plantation.
Cruised home with 14 cars in the caravan to Gloster!!!
GREAT BRITISH CAR SHOW
