Default 2012 Grand National Roadster Show

---I went to the GNRS Friday and as usual it was a fantastic show.
Ron Covell had a vendors spot at the show, I bought a couple of CD's and was able to talk to Ron for a few minutes. Ron liked the MM post card and agreed to pass them out at his booth.

---I also saw Blake Tomlinson at the Waldon's Speed Shop booth. I gave some cards to Blake to pass out, said he would with Bobby Waldons permission.

---Ron and Blake, thanks for spreading the word for MM.

Tony

Wish I knew you were there, I would have liked to have met up with you. I missed Ron but was absolutely amazed at the quality of the cars there this year, and not just in the main hall.

I love this car

Default 2012 Grand National Roadster Show

---Jim, it was a very good show.
The nose on the #3 car is the track nose that Clay Cook made.
One of these two roadsters will probably win the most beautifyl roadster award.
