Ok finally getting some pictures posted sorry for the delay. Justin and Mark Jenkins came by and we swapped some good stories. Met Randall Klein and he can tell a story or two as well.

Ed, Thanks for all the pictures. I, especially, like the interior and engine shots of Randall Klein's 56 Nomad. I have never seen that car in person. That car looks awesome and too nice to race. How long has Randall had the Nomad?? do you know.

I hope the weather gets better and the complete event happens.
