We had a get together with Ed Iskenderian for about 5 hrs. last night. Great guy, and a pioneer in hotrodding. Sure learned a lot about the early days of hotrodding!

That was probably Fred Davis an instructor from the college. He set up the meet and greet at the college, and it was a great time!
Has the cruise to DQ on Farmington taken off yet this year? Sounds like it might be nice Fri-Mon.!
