Greetings Group, The drive to our February Farmer Boys get-together was VERY interesting as it was VERY foggy on the 60 freeway through Moreno Valley. Everyone was going slow and had their lights on. No one was interested in another 100-car pile- up in the fog.
Once we arrived, safe and sound, we enjoyed the interesting cars that showed up. Randy Main brought a "Ran when parked" '65 Austin Healey Sprite. If you're interested in this car, contact Randy. It could be yours.
Joe Tomaselli drove his beautiful, '03 Ford Thunderbird. For those old timers in the AHASC, Joe is Ralph and Anne Comito's nephew. The pictures don't do the car justice. Super clean example. The car has resided in Florida, then New York and now SoCal. A well- preserved classic.
Bill Wilkman's original owner '90 Mazda Miata benefited from a recent detailing and really looked showroom fresh. Nice job, Bill.
Those in Classics: Randy Clary - '73 Jensen Healey, Jim Cregg - '67 Mini Cooper S, Ron and Sandy Davies - '56 Austin Healey 100 V8 Modified, Jimmie Davis -'56 Austin Healey 100 - Nice photo album on display, Robert Keys - '73 Triumph TR-6, Larry Maloney -'03 Mini Cooper S, Pat McInturff - '52 MG-TD, Dan Mensinger - '68 Ford Mustang Modified - EV conversion. A real Sleeper, Joe Tomaselli and Bret VanNortwick - '03 Ford Thunderbird.

The white box in the Mustang engine bay covers the EV conversion. New cup holder? Tally = 18 Car Guys and Gals - 11 Classics - 5 future Classics.
We had a great time, followed by a nice breakfast. A good way to spend a morning. We will meet again next month at Farmer Boys in Riverside on the first Saturday at 8am.
What are you going to bring? Cheers . . .
