I just got home this evening, well worn. I am about to go collapse into the sack, but I did take time to edit one photo. I'll get to the others later.

I have no idea why I left out 6. #15, of course, is Ersel Twing.

Great picture Steve. I really enjoyed our chat during the car show on Saturday. Glad you made it home safely.

Steve,

I see many "Usual Suspects". Do we need to alert the Border Patrol you have captured a photo of another "Cartel Caravan" looking to invade our southern border?

Seriously, thanks for sharing and I look forward to see more when posted.

Hi Steve, Thank you for posting this picture. I would like to suggest that you correct the numbering. 1 & 2 are one person, as are 3 & 4. As you mentioned, add #6.
I will then fill in all the names I can identify.
Thanks,
Keith

I'll take #7. There are persons behind #'s 2 and 4, but go head and renumber if you like, maybe I will find out who I really am in that process! Thanks for posting and thanks mtfca for the meet and greet. jb

In the original numbering, 1/2 is John Foreman (black shirt on the far left in the picture), 3/4 is Linda Umberger, 5 is Ben Umberger, 8 is Jerry Kramer (An MTFCA Director), 9 is Dave Simmering, 10 is Seamus Hnat, 11 is Charlie Gagel, 13 is George Danek (MTFCI President), 14 is Yours Truly, 16 is Phil Maurici, 17 is Kathy Taggert (an MTFCA Director), 18 is Kevin Prus ( Have you heard of Prus Heads?). I can't identify the last 4 guys, but the three young guys were all together. That's all I can name.

19 is Simon Neubert. He ran the Butler County, Pa Tour.

This morning I edited the first day. I'll get to the second day later.

This is the green Duesy pictured above.

Here is the old Hershey. Those were the days!

Is that the White field?

I think so. Looks like the main road along the front. I remember the tire guy was just down the road from my spaces.
I found this picture over on AACA Hershey page. There are a couple more there.
This is what separated the men from the boys.

My favorite was watching people slide down the hills in the Blue field!

How fun that was. They would come off the hill above me and not sure if they would stop. Seems like the mud trail when we left on Saturday would go from gate past the light at the corner.

Those are wonderful photos as always Steve. I believe the 2 cyl Maytag (3 pictures above) is the same one I treasured in the Dudley Garage in Virginia City, Mt. 50 years ago. The cowl and hood coloring matches as well as other details. I had heard random stories about it since it left the Bovey collection. It is a trill to see it again.
Thanks for taking these.

You should have seen it running around. A nicely preserved machine! Will be a nice car for the next care-taker.

In a recent discussion of valve stems and dust covers I mentioned that the covers come in many styles and sizes. This little box illustrates the point.

These guys were a bit surprised when I told them I made some of the signs they were selling.


The Regans were shopping for jacks. John has taken up restoring Model T screw jacks.
