Did not know that Joe, I had called Winnie this morning and she told that is were they would be this weekend.
Should be a good show to attend.

Hot Wheels should do a release of 50 Years of Meyers Manx buggies. Maybe a 5 car set.

Last weekend at the show there was "Old Red" and Bob Yahn's Manx.  These were the only ones there.  Many, many Hot Rods and other cars from the early days of  Hot Rod Magazine. 
Many people asked what the green tanks were on Old Red.  Bruce would tell them, "they are for driving to Catalina Island", with a big smile before telling them that they were spare gas tanks.
Bob Yahn's Manx was in a different building.  Bob did keep busy answering question about his buggy. ImageImageImageImageImage
