Other Lincolns on display were William Clay Ford’s 1956 Continental Mark II convertible, several classic Lincolns from the twenties and thirties, and a 1956 Continental Mark II originally owned by Elizabeth Taylor. Originally the Western Region planned to have a special class as they did in 1995 but that plan was cancelled due to lack of participation. We are not sure how many, if any, Western Region members attended without cars. One Western Region mem- ber, Jim Ayres, did attend and took these photos. More of his photos appear on Lincoln Honored at Pebble Beach 2013 page 4.

Les Pet'ardentes Du Choletais LA GAZETTE
Les Pet’ardentes du Choletais LA GAZETTE Novembre 2017 La création de la Société française des Automobiles Ford date de 1916, alors que l'usine de Bordeaux montait déjà des châssis importés des Etats Unis. En 1929, la société est réorganisée et devient Ford Société Anonyme Française (Ford SAF) placée sous l'auto- rité de Ford Grande-Bretagne. Le 1er octobre 1934, un accord est scellé avec la société d’automobiles alsacienne Mathis, alors en grandes difficultés financières et une nouvelle marque française fait son apparition sous le label Matford. Ford SAF reprend son indépendance vis-à-vis de Mathis en 1940, et dispose désormais de sa propre usine de production ultra-moderne à Poissy. Une usine qui deviendra par la suite le principal site de production Simca. En 1948 est présentée la nouvelle Ford, la Vedette. Elle a la ligne particulière d'une Mercury ou d'une Hudson Hornet ou encore d'une Lincoln, l'espace d'une limousine, une conception archaïque même s'il elle dispose des nouvelles suspensions avant triangulées type MacPherson, ingénieur maison. L'usine de Poissy ne disposant pas encore de presse, les carrosseries sont élaborées par Chausson à Genneviliers pour les premiers modèles. Le moteur est un V8, un des rares de la production européenne. Mais du V8 elle n'a que les inconvénients, à savoir la consommation et la surchauffe. En revanche, elle n'a pas le punch des américaines. Le V8 de 2,2 litres ne pro- pose que 60 chevaux SAE pour une voiture de près de 1200 kg et n'est pas aidé par une boite trois rapports. -

Geotechnical Eng Services Award to Soil & Materials Engineers And
CITY of NOVI CITY COUNCIL Agenda Item 8 June 16, 2014 SUBJECT: Approval to award Agreements for Geotechnical Engineering Services for Public Projects to Soil & Materials Engineers and Testing and Engineering Consultants for a period of three years with the option of two one-year extensions, as recommended by the Consultant Review Committee, with an effective date of June 16, 2014. SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT: Departmen~lfPublic Services, Engineering Division 'f.,'fC... CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: ~ BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Since 2009, the City has contracted for civil engineering consulting services for public infrastructure projects using three pre-qualified engineering consultants. In a similar manner, staff is proposing the use of pre-qualified geotechnical consultants. The City current seeks proposals for geotechnical engineering each time it is required for a project, and entails field and laboratory testing of most materials typically used in civil construction. The geotechnical engineering consultants work closely with staff and the civil engineering consultant to provide technical expertise in both the planning phase and construction phase for public infrastructure projects. The use of pre-qualified consultants for engineering consulting has streamlined the engineering award process and provides a steady, consistent amount of work so that each firm can routinely provide qualified staff dedicated to Novi. The goals of the geotechnical pre-qualification would be the same. The Engineering Division completed the process to recommend two pre-qualified geotechnical consultants to be utilized for the planning and construction phases of public infrastructure projects. The attached Request for Qualifications was advertised publicly on January 17, 2014 to solicit two pre-qualified geotechnical engineering consultants.
