Looks like it missed it this year; seems like it wouldn't have been too big a hassle for someone to list the activities on our website. Would have liked to have had my old '33 out for a spin.

Ron,
You must have missed Sal's post about your original question. Sal's post was about 8-9 posts back.
Anyway, Sal gave you a name and phone number and email address about your questions.
Maybe you didn't see Sal's helpful suggestion(s). Or, who knows what happened....
Bill.

We got back to San Jose at about 3:30PM on Sunday. Logged almost 500 hundred miles for the entire trip, to and from San Jose. Had a great time and how do these guys find back roads like the ones we were on? A great turn out of sixty cars. One of our San Jose Region guys had transmission problems and had to flatbed it home. :( Thanks to the Redwood Empire Region for hosting this event.

We got back to Portland, Or Tues. The "new" little red wagon performed well over 1635 miles. The meet/tour was great. The Redwood Empire Region did a great job of hosting the meet, setting up tours, arranging the Sat eve banquet and the calorie laden "ice cream social" on Thurs eve. Surprisinly the weather was chilly; but nobody can control that. Nonetheless, 20* below average makes for chilly barely 60* days. Compare that to two yrs ago in Morgan Hill (not far from Rohernt Park) when it was 20* above average in the 100's!! Amazing.... Congrats to Walt and Herb and all in the Redwood Empire! Be sure to check out Kaydene O'Day's photos in the other thread...."VCCA Tour Pictures." https://vccachat.org/ubbthreads.php/topics/174418/Re_VCCA_tour_pictures#Post174418Bill.

Thanks for your help with the pictures, Bill. From me and Mrs. Fuller.
I'm sure the CRR folks who don't frequent CC thank you also....

Mrs Fuller makes another good photographer on that tour.
Is that your wagon with the flat bottomed tyre?

Tony,
That wagon with the "flat bottom tyre" (the burgendy colored one) is
Tom Meleo's 1947 Fleetmaster woodie wagon. Ours is the red 51....
Mrs. Fuller isn't as skillful with the camera as Mrs. O'Day. Nonetheless,
fun to see more pictures of nice, old Chevy's. Thnx again to BB for
his help posting them!
Bill.

Ok on the "flat bottomed tyre" but I cannot agree on the camera skills though.
I just looked at 1931Sal's photos and consider all 3 sets to be of equal high quality. When all the others post their photos we will have the full tour.
