National meet recap
« on: July 10, 2017, 08:45:26 AM »
After spending a day in Phoenix where the temperature never dipped below 100F, we arrived yesterday in Prescott to much cooler weather, it was in the upper 80s by late afternoon. About 100 members and guests are here already with more due to arrive today. Some would have rolled in last evening but wildfires south of the hotel closed the main highway, US17, so they've been delayed.

Attached is a picture of just a few of the cars.

We'll post more as the week unfolds.

Congratulations & good luck to the new officers, also, much appreciation to the outgoing crew for taking a turn at the helm.

Jim:

Great pictures of some great looking cars.  Unfortunately, I didn't see any Willys Aeros in this batch of pictures.

Thanks for posting,

  We really need to have some Aeros at next years National. I hope to drive my 55 Custom there.

I really hope to have Old Toby back up and running and at the National next year. Maybe we'll beat the record of 6 Aeros at St Louis in 1986 (really? 31 years ago?).
