Kathy and I went down to Clinton NJ for the Red Mill British Car day on Sunday. 
It was a nice show but small (about 100 cars), a few interesting cars here and 
there - an old 30's Bentley, an 80's? TVR, a Morgan, couple of Jags (an E-type, 
2 80's XJ6's), couple of Rolls Royces, lots of B's and TR6's, a few A's, but 
only 4 spridgets: 2 RB cars, one highly modified CB (V6, auto, major front 
frame/suspension mods, tilt-forward fiberglass bonnet), and a BRG Frogeye. 
There were also two "opposites" there - a Sunbeam Tiger (american engine in 
Brit chassis) and a Chevy Cosworth Vega (brit engine in american chassis). 
Before I looked under the hood of the Chevy I was really wondering what it was 
doing there!
