Some of you have been seeing my name here and there. I sent some stuff out
to various places, and some printed things, but everyone is an editor. Some
cut most, some embellish nicely... But, all have brought responses!

> ahem, I did write the little piece on heel and toe shifting
I finally got my newsletter. A good bit- similar to some stuff we've hashed
back and forth on the net a while back. And, all I got was about 1 sq. inch
for the Peerless register notice, but in that short space, they managed to
incorrectly add TR2 to the cars the Peerless is based on... (It's TR3, plus
a bunch of other little bits)
I'm waiting to see what the Roadster Factory puts in their
next newsletter...

Right- B-C put in a photo they took at a meet in Cal, and wrote it up quite
nicely as a news blurb. The owner of that car sent me a letter a couple
days ago... It's car #220

Yup- turns out that Phase 1 car is now owned by the UK Peerless registrar,
waiting for restoration after he finishes his current Phase 2 project.
Response from recent mailings has been tremendous. This summer, I started
with about 30+ car #'s, with only about 10 current addresses, I'm now
approaching 70 Peerless and Warwicks that were imported to the US, with
current owners and locations on about 2/3 to 3/4 of them. I've been adding
a car or 2 a week, with 4 this week alone.
Still a lot of organizing to go, of owners, parts, literature, etc, but I'm
amazed at what's crawling out of the sheds and garages of North America.
Some are running, some are racing, and many need restoration. One car has
never been outside overnight, and has about 5K miles, but has been sitting
since 1961 so needs quite a bit of work.
More, as I know it...
