    Just wondering about the upcoming Autofair at the Charlotte motor speedway next month and if many of us Hambers are going. I will be there for the first time in a few years trying to unload some of my clutter from the garage.
    I am in need of a pair of steel 32 Ford front fenders if anyone going is bringing a pair let me know where you will be. I tried to buy some new Brookvilles but they are out and no vendors I have contacted has any. Let me know if you know of any.

    I will be setting up mid day Wednesday in the Orange field **O-15, 16 Look for my buddy Cliff's motor home. Just spent the last 3 days cleaning out my recently deceased brother's early Ford hoard. Mostly hard parts plus an A frame/T coupe combo for cheap. If any Iron Lords are listening in I have a wall hanger for your garage if you want it.

    It's been a great Auto Fair and still have one more day. I've been able to p*** on the A frame/T coupe to a great young man for what I believe is his first ground up hot rod build. Also moved all the bulky heavy stuff - transmissions, rear ends, front end etc. Hopefully I'll be heading back to Florida with a near empty trailer.

    A big thanks to all the folks, including several HAMBers, that pretty well cleaned me out of my brothers hoard at the Auto Fair. A nice big check is off to my sister-in law. The leftovers will be going to the Turkey Run in November including a pretty decent '23 turtle deck with lid.

    I got rid of all of my heavy stuff also. The trip back got better gas mileage with the lighter load. I wish I could have gotten rid of all of it though. Just not as many people fooling with the older stuff as compared with the ubiquitous Camaro/Nova/C10 stuff.

    Sorry I missed you this time, Lee, but I'm glad to hear the weekend was good to you and your sis-in-law! Maybe in Spring....
