I would also like to jump in here and thank Joe, Mary, Rod and Kim for being such wonderful hosts and making this an outstanding event!!!  Thanks Cees for flying here from Amsterdam.  Now that is dedication!

Joe, your knowledge of these cars is truly amazing and listening to you speak about them is like listening to a parent speak about their children.  Watching you work on them is like watching an artist paint on canvas.  You truely have a love for these cars!

I met a really great group of people (friends) this weekend!  I enjoyed meeting each one of you and look forward to seeing you all again.

One of the many things that I learned this weekend...  each of our cars have unique personalities and are different in their own ways.  While there are standards and "original" pieces & parts, they are unique like each of us.

Thanks again!!!
Bob

Thank you all,
A good event is made by the quality of the people and you all were great!! Mary and myself are flattered and appreciative of the efforts made by everyone to get to Blacklick from many parts of the country and world!

There were many other people who help make this a good event. Unlike many other automobile groups or clubs, this group was born on the internet! It has evolved out of cyberspace and into a reality with real people and events!

There are many people I wish to thank and I hope to do so in the next few days.

Thank you all!!
