Getting closer. Will have a table or two for anyone that wants to bring a aftermarket ignition to have on display. And a reminder that we will have a different location for dinner so I don’t think we will be able to pay by card so make sure you have cash.

It’s 35 degrees here so we brought in several of the display cars today. Here’s my father’s 1911 I drove over.

Hi Chris... Is Grandpa's 1912-1913? Buick speedster still in the family... I remember meeting him at one of the North Jersey Buick meets at a dealership back in the early '90s

Bob- my father has the 1913 Buick touring that my grandparents had for many years, and I have a 1913 Buick roadster. We’ve never had a Buick speedster, but there was a 1912 and a 1913 in northern NJ at that time.

Kind of remember a yellow two-seater with the gas tank behind the seats exposed and spares behind.

Sorry for the thread drift- especially to Buicks….
That sounds like the 1912 model 28 roadster that was owned by Chuck Boyer then Roger Hayden and is now in Wisconsin, I believe.
It could also be the 1913 Zinn racer, based on a 1913 model 24/25, but I don’t remember it being out or used in the 1990’s.
I’ll bet it was the 1912 when Roger owned it - probably 1996-2000.

I didn’t get as many pictures today. Talked with a lot of new and old faces and had too good of a time and forgot to keep taking photos. Chili day but stayed warm inside. I counted close to 120 people in attendance. Thank you to all that worked for today, presenting and attending. It will be exciting to do it all again next year!

Thank you to all who attended. We had about 130 in attendance. We’re going to start working on next year’s clinic in a few days. We hope to see you January 18-19, 2025.

Thank you Chris
I really enjoyed the presentations by the younger people, your daughters, and the students driving to McPherson from Colorado in their Ts and A.
The Lincoln highway trip sounds like it will be a blast.
Over the last year, I have learned so much from Larry about the Model T ignition system.
It was great to catch up with Model T friends from all over the country.
Look forward to seeing you in Chickasha.

I missed the last clinic due to unforeseen circumstances, so I'm looking forward to the next one. It will be another step in getting back to normal, whatever that is.
