So Ed? Where, and what are the details. My schedule only has a show in
Perrysburg that weekend. Is that you? I wrote to the address for info
last month, but never got a reply.
The Lorain County British Car Club doesn't have anything for that
weekend, either, so if I could get some info before 4/25, I can announce
it at the meeting.
Reply if you need a snail mail address for brochures. I'll be out of town
for the next few days, but I'll check the email.
Thanks,
Steve
