[Nobbc] [Fwd: Call for entries to the Marin Sonoma Concours d'Elegance May 17th 2009]

[rlmossholder at comcast.net]

  I think we should go as a group, invade the show with a smattering of non-original cars, and an air of sophistication replete with the attitude of a Liverpool rugby team and a taste for mayhem!. We could be the second coming of the  British Invasion!

 ...or we could go and just have a good time

Cheers,
Rich
