Hey Jake, Sorry if I missed you at the Pompano show, the rain and cold
kept me and my son from going up too early and by the time we got there,
it was raining again and we ditched into the mall to avoid it. We ran
into Marshall Painter (Patti's ex), I don't know if you know him but he
said he had a few Type III parts in his truck. He was waiting for the
weather to clear before he set up, but it hadn't by the time we had to
go. At Bug Jam last year, he had a nice set of Euro headlight buckets
(-bulbs) for ~$300 and a set of Type III rear mud flaps in the bag for a
couple hundred. Last time I had talked to Marshall he still had both, so
I thought he still had them at Pompano. I couldn't afford to bite on
either one, so I looked around the parts booths but couldn't find
anything. The show in Palm Beach is better than Pompano, and I heard
that the Sears at Pompano is complaining about all the cars and lack of
parking, so it might墩&3ged soon to another time or palce. There
were a couple of Squares there, an old faded '69 for sale in the parking
lot, an orange late model, and a red late model from up the street from
my station on 36 St. in Miami. When we were leaving, we saw a nice
silver late model square pulling in, but I think it was after
registration closed, so I don't think he went in to show. AAR, I didn't
see Cesar Costa's '69 auto Notch there, the car is immaculate and I
doubt Cesar would have driven it up in the rain. Nor did we see the
beige Square with the Type I light buckets from around here either. 
Maybe in Palm Beach (I think it's in July) there'll be more of a turn
out. Next time,
