201807Newsletterfina THE CHESAPEAKE BULLETIN The Official Monthly Newsletter of Chesapeake Region Antique Automobile Club of America Volume 58 Number 7 July 2018 'HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY' JULY 4TH ! Grand National 2018 Meet,'Pitt' Campus At Greensburg, Pa. By Bill Wurzell, Editor Chesapeake Region, AACA The weather forecast for the Grand Nation- al Meet, in Greensburg, Pennsylvania was not very promising for the entire three day meet. However, we lucked out! Especially, show day Saturday, June 2, just slightly overcast. In a nutshell, a Grand National meet is for ve- hicles that are twenty-five or more years old and have won previous awards in AACA sanctioned events. Only members of The Antique Automo- bile Club of America can enter cars for judging. The owner of a winning vehicle can feel that he or she, has achieved the pinnacle of success with their vehicle. Many of the vehicles award- ed are quite valuable, but there are plenty of ve- hicles that have a far more modest value. Let’s say a 1956 Mercedes-Benz gull wing coupe to a 1956 Chevrolet Bel-Air sedan. The award is the same. Once again, Chesapeake Region had ex- cellent representation from members, Ron King, Norm Heathcote, Owen Garland, Bill Scott and Chesapeake Region, Vice President, Chesapeake Region Member, Bill Scott poses in front of his 1966 Buick Electra 225 coupe.

The concept being, taking a huge, dormant, unused shopping mall and turning it into an Antique Automotive Palace! The 'Classic Auto Mall' that approximately 20 members visited on June 20th, is owned by a wealthy, very involved family that owns sev- eral large venue sites, primarily in the Mid-At- lantic States. The family and their patriarch take a 'hands on' approach to all their hold- ings, understandable as they are real estate developers.

Geez, gigantic three axle dump trucks whiz- zing around, huge earth movers, excavators, bulldozers and front-end loaders everywhere you looked.

I guess we thought we would take a break from driving and invited ourselves to ride along with long-time member Bob Len- io in his new 2017 Subaru. Bob is an excellent driver and our ride up and back was filled with good conversation, mostly about old cars. We never got lost unless you count the bum steer from Bob’s Garmin GPS.

Hummingbirds primarily eat flower nectar, tree sap, insects and pollen. The hummingbird’s fast breathing rate, fast heartbeat and high body temperature require that they eat often. They also require an enormous amount of food each day. Hummingbirds have a long tongue which they use to lick their food at a rate of up to 13 licks per second.

  • 1950 Desoto Cars Described
    1950 DESOTO CARS DESCRIBED 1950 DESOTO - GENERAL: For 1950, a minor facelift on the 1950 model was advertised as the "New DeSoto" and referred to as a "car built for owner satisfaction". The rear fenders were smoothed and the tail lights were moved down to fare into the rear portion. Grille textures and ornamentation features were slightly revised. A body color vertical grille divider, unlike any previous or later DeSoto, was featured. 1950 DELUXE SERIES S14-1 (6-Cylinder): DeLuxe models were identified by a lack of nomenclature on the upper front corner of the front doors, except on Carry-Alls, which had "Carry-All" in this location on a chrome plate. Station Wagons were now Custom trimmed. Standard equipment on DeLuxes included dual sun visors, dual two-speed electric wipers, directional signals with parking brake light, cigar lighter, stainless steel trim rings, illuminated glove box with lock, dual outside door locks, map light, counter balanced luggage compartment lid, illuminated luggage compartment, right and left front door arm rests, interior door locks and bumper guards front and rear. 1950 CUSTOM SERIES S14-2 (6-Cylinder): The Custom series had the same styling as the 1949 DeLuxe models.
