That’s a good turnout Chris. Competition for the first donut will be fierce.

We’ll, after a failure during road tests the Mercury won’t be making the endurance run. The 14 runabout will step in for the lowland tour.

Access is the biggest problem. You pretty much have to disassemble the car to get the engine out.

That's a real bummer Andy !!! You might know of Rudy Sarella from up our way - his F.I.L. was Bill Rader and I did some work for him on his speedster w/Gemsa O.H. - same drill - body was built up after the powertrain was finished - had to dis-assemble 1/2 of the car !

I couldn’t participate in the endurance run but we too the 14 down and ran the lowland tour. Lots of cars and folks we hadn’t seen in some time. It was well organized and the club was motivated to make it all work.
Here are some iffy photos from the line up.

Re: SCVMTFC 53rd Annual Endurance Run & Lowland Tour Registration ends May 18th!
I believe this Buick attended a couple of the SCVMTFC Endurance Runs in the past. Is this car still around and/or is it still in California?
It looks like another great event!!
