Well, I've see a few photos of the GN and I'm hoping to see a lot more!  (It looked like the weather was favourable as well).

I believe there were several 57/58 Broughams at the Nationals, including the Dakota Red car?  David, did your '58 EB get there without any problems?!  Did you get to Columbus, refreshed because of the air ride suspension?  :)

Regards, Ross.

Hi Ross,

Yes I made the trip and my only problem was getting trapped in a rural area without a fuel station and I ran out.  My wife was following me in the Denali full of parts and she went and got me a couple of gallons of fuel.  The air ride worked very well.

Attached is a composite shot (thanks Clay) of all 5 cars side by side on Friday afternoon.  It was really cool to be able to get the cars parked in the same area of spaces.  They were only like that for about a hour and a half.
