Between the Bantam Festival presentations on Friday and Saturday (both at 1pm at or near the History area — I can’t say for sure at the moment) and that fact that we are camping (which makes charging our equipment difficult), there will likely be few updates. I’ll throw up a few old posts though.

We will be camping at Amphitheater C.

SCHEDULE FRIDAY:
9AM: We will be arriving at Coopers Lake
1PM: My Presentation starts
1:30PM: I will be selling/signing Finding Virginia books and should have a couple more Amber Panels books as well.
5PM: We’ll be participating in the downtown Butler Jeep Rally

SCHEDULE SATURDAY:
1PM: My Presentation starts
1:30PM: I will be selling/signing Finding Virginia books and should have a couple more Amber Panels books as well.
3PM: Docent in history building? TBD
Evening: Eating at the “Pigout”

SCHEDULE SUNDAY:
We hope to be on the road by 11AM. We plan to stop in at the Packard Museum in Ohio.

I expect to have time Sunday evening to do updates.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was on eBay.

Marc spotted this reprinted photo on eBay. I tracked Specker Motors to Marquette, MI. You can see more pics here.

Spent the night last night in Connecticut and had a nice time meeting extended family I hadn’t ever met. We’ll likely be staying in southern Mass tonight. Then we’ll wind northward through Mass and into Maine. We’ve been talking about trying to reach Acadia NP. More tonight.

Oh, am behind on emails, so I hope to catch up tonight.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5500.

This build looks clean, but having the speakers mounted like they are means you’ll have to cover them whenever jeeping. Maybe that part is removable? The hood scoop is unusually shaped.

Thanks to Gary, I got connected to the Buffalo News, which picked up my story of bringing a plaque of my great great grandfather Rudolph Wurlitzer to the North Tonanwanda History Museum.

CORRECTION: I accidentally wrote that Paul launched this new website when is was actually Kyle.

Kyle Butcher has launched a new jeep club. He asked me to share that information:

This New club merges pre-1970 jeep loving people. It isn’t just for flat fenders but all classic Jeeps. Great start and great group of people. There are also multiple options. You can join as a member and recieve member benefits or just go on the forum and the facebook for free, up to you. http://www.eastcoastwillys.org and east coast willys association on facebook.

This is an organization to bring pre 1970 Jeep enthusiasts together.
To join go to the online store and select membership.
ANYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN AND PARTICIPATE IN EVENTS. THIS IS BASED OFF OF PRE 1970 JEEPS AND EVENTS ARE DESIGNED FOR THOSE VEHICLES.
