Re: 2021 Speedsters Reunion in Lincoln NE
I was at the first one, several years ago. VERY cool event, but wow, was it ever HOT, 105F in an open T. If you haven't been to one, don't miss it. The museum alone is worth the trip.

Difficult to make out, but a six cylinder “speedster” in John’s photo above, with a guy in a blue shirt.
Hope to see many of you there in 2021.
A word to the wise. Do not, under any circumstances, go to a bar in Lincoln with Jerry from Kansas. Don’t ask how I know....

Re: 2021 Speedsters Reunion in Lincoln NE
Thanks for the memory John Warren. The speedster reunion is a special event, and I hope it comes off this year. The organizers have been kind enough to let a Model K run an exhibition hill climb in the past.
Hope to see many of you there this year.

Re: 2021 Speedsters Reunion in Lincoln NE
John W., looking forward to seeing everyone. We have two early Ford friends driving their Model A's (ok, 29 and 30 A roadsters) from Michigan and Ohio to attend. Looks like I'll do the tour with that old 07 Ford, then try the hill climb with the Special.
Today at the shop, cutting in the correct exhaust pipes, and finishing the fake "dashtank," as it's referred to on the factory drawings, the piece behind the firewall to hide the back of the motor:
