Directors Message At this writing we are preparing for our trip to Brookfield Wisconsin for the 2017 Buick Nationals. Almost 3 months after my rotator cuff surgery I was finally able to do some work on the cars only last week. Still trying to be careful about my right arm and not pushing it. So the 1937 is serviced and hopefully ready for the trek. We will be on the road for about 11 days which will include the meet and the Pre-War After Tour. I thank all who helped with our 9th Annual Freysinger Car show held on June 3rd. Mostly the Freysinger family and staff for all their support. Dave Hare for all the Pre-Registration. Dick Beckley who handled on-site registration. Richard Sills and Dick did compiling of ballots for the awards. Barry McClair, Jim Smith and Jack Ulrich for parking the entrants in the correct spaces. Chuck Hoffman for taking photos and doing the write up for the Bugle and our newsletter. Tim Spigelmyer and all the above for help setting up and teardown. Our ladies Gwen Miller, Karen Beckley and my wife Joan for 50/50 ticket sales and T shirt sales. We actually have only one left! So we must order more. Everyone I spoke with indicated that this was the best show yet. We had a great variety of cars especially to my delight there were 3 1920s Buicks. The only comment was from Rich Murray to suggest that next year we shorten the day to give awards sooner so the Freysinger staff could get the lot re-populated faster. That was the good news….. The Monday following the show I received a phone call from Gary Freysinger to say that they will no longer be able to hold the show at that site. His reason was as much as he wants to support the show it is the push from GM for sales quotas. To shut down their lot and move 75 or so cars on the one day that they get most of their walk in business was not helping them to get their quotas. We are looking into some other venues for a show and we can discuss them at future meetings. Possibly still retaining sponsorship from Freysingers. Don’t forget the upcoming July 23rd Picnic/Meeting at the Bush residence. See details elsewhere in the Porthole. We are still in need of an assistant director since Tim Spigelmyer has stepped down. I sure can use the help so, someone please help me! Please see upcoming events in the newsletter. Larry DON'T FORGET...MARK YOU CALENDAR!!! Sunday July 23 –Mason-Dixon Chapter Picnic/Meeting Mr. and Mrs. Tom Bush will be hosting a picnic at their home. Covered dish supper. The club will cover the cost of the meat. Please contact them at 717-938-8931 as to what you are bringing by July 19th. (So as not to have an over-abundance of bean dishes etc.) Also RSVP by the 19th so they can order the meat.

In the summer 0f 1966 I was a 16 year old car freak and my dad was the Sales Manager at Bratton Buick 150 North Beaver Street in York, Pa. York US30 Dragway was at its peak in drag racing popularity. Match races between funny cars and dragsters, and exhibition runs by specialty cars was a big draw for spectators. Some time ago the Buick Bugle had a book review by Helen Hutchings on the Tommy Ivo dragster which was powered by 4 Buick engines. I can’t recall what issue it was, nor can I find it. I remember that article leaving me thinking was that the dragster that Bratton Buick sponsored for some exhibition races at York US 30 in the summer of 1966? After digging out some old photographs (black and white unfortunately) the answer is “Yes”. I did some internet searching and found the following web site: (http://www.speedhunters.com/2009/07/guest_blog_tony_thacker_nhra_museum_gt_gt/) Check it out. It seems that race opportunities were getting less frequent for Tommy Ivo and his dragster as the Funny Cars became more popular, and in 1963 he sold his car to one of his crew members who after a period of time thought the car needed bodywork to compete with racers of the day.

    Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive by Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected]

    Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive By Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected] I hadn’t owned my Avanti very long, when on an early summer morning drive on the Interstate to a club event my wife commented, “It doesn’t seem happy.” I could hardly argue with her. In fact, I was thinking the same thing. It was a hot day. Keeping up with traffic at 75 MPH the car ran smoothly but the engine was screaming like an over‐ revved sewing machine. The tachometer read 3300 RPM, and I kept wishing I had another gear to shift to. Further, by the time we had reached our destination more than an hour later, we were both drenched with sweat, as the footwells and console were radiating heat worthy of a smelting oven. The chrome shifter was so hot that it couldn’t be touched without risking blisters. Even the air coming in the floor vents offered no relief as it was scalding hot, passing as it did through the oven–like cowl and past combination of summer driving, today’s faster the firewall before reaching our feet. “That car highway speeds, the high rear gears, the ancient needs air conditioning,” said my wife with some transmission and the fiberglass floor and firewall annoyance as we joined the party, our backs soaked made me realize that I needed to address the issue if with perspiration. I frowned. Installing air I was going to enjoy this car for years to come. conditioning on an R2 is a highly custom proposition, Besides insulating the floor and firewall, I needed to and I knew deep down that no auto air conditioner reduce the engine speed on the road.
