John,

Thanks for your wonderful comments on our little 1600.  I must say that we
are rather proud of her too.  I look forward to seeing you again soon.

| I have been very busy of late but on Saturday, I went to Dennis Tobin's
shop, LaFox Imports,  in S. Elgin, Il for his spring get together for
vintage sports cars.  It is primarily geared toward English cars but Dennis
has a soft spot for Roadsters and we were all invited.

| Deena and Joe brought their newly restored 69 1600.  I have seen a lot of
roadsters over the years but I have never seen a better example of  one than
theirs.  It only has 13K miles on it and everything that needed replacing,
was.  The paint was done in Q45 silver and theirs looks better than my Q45
does.  The interior is all new except the perfect original dash.   This car
has to look as good as the Les restoration on the famous silver 67.5 from
the poster.  Deena and Joe spent every non working hour over the past 8
months restoring this car and no pro could have done better.
Congratulations.

| Dennis,  thanks for the invitation.  It was a fun day even though is was
still a little chilly driving with the top down, as I always do.  Wish I had
had one of those roadster cookies.  My wife has a new project.  Ya, right !!
