Can't wait to see your Elan again. Is there no one else bringing a car? I have to work midnight the night before & had planned on going early & napping before it got too hot, since I'll be stuck there anyway. If anyone wants to kill time there are pics from Walnut St here.... Walnut St Invitational & Birthday pictures from entertainment photos on webshots

I think I may sell my soul for that TVR, who needs a soul??

If all goes well I will bring my 71 BMW 3.0cs. I think I'll put a Lotus club sticker in the rear window so those LT folks who wander by the vintage BMW area will know which one it is.

Happy Day then. I sincerely hope to see your 71!! Have a safe drive.

More Pics on that Webshots link, Isetta & 1st gen RX7 most notably.

WOW! I couldn't believe how many Lotus cars were there! I would say at least 15. A fair number of Elises, a couple Elans, Esprits and a pair of Sevens. Too bad I wasn't smart enough to take any pictures. :(

I was glad I was able to talk to some new people there. Maybe next year I'll try and get something more going for the day.
