I’m coming down with a friend, we have our spot, 246 I think. If it wasn’t for the Cal emissions rules I’d bring the track with my Semi but it’s too old. So probably see you there!

Was up at War Birds over the West a couple of weeks ago. Got to be a tow vehicle again. Unfortunately Zelda broke down, so hired a DUKW to pull her up on the trailer. Some MV friends came down and helped me get her back running again! Back in business!

Decided it was time for a little upgrade on Zelda, been using my buddy’s fuel tank for a couple of years now so time to put in the new fuel tanks that I bought from Paul. Probably start on the radio wiring next.

The M52A2 is in at the shop right now blew a head gasket. My engine guy said it had a .002 high spot. I'm debating weather to keep it or sell it when it comes back.

Zelda had another busy weekend. She was at Camp Rilea on the Oregon Coast. Last event for the year before she heads to the barn for some maintenance and more upgrades. She preformed flawlessly. My Friend was driving and it was Awesome watching her move up and engage the enemy. Someone took this...
It's been a busy summer, had Zelda out to the car show at the local high school last weekend. 4 miles from the house so drove her there. Had a great time, lots of interest. Took second in the 1940 to 1949 class. That was a plus! Lots of compliments from the other owners.
