Looking forward to getting together as soon as we hear all is well to meet once again. I will be participating in a Zoom meeting with the National Board to cover the guide lines to once again restart our meetings. At this point it it looks promising that we will be able to meet in May. We will put out the information as soon as it is finalized! Tom and I have gotten our Covid injections and our waiting period is over and we have gone out . Last night we met up with Sylvia and Don Harwick at the casino for dinner. We had a great time and it was good to be around people once again. Then today Don called and wanted to come over to our house and another experience we have not had in some time company at our house. Tom showing Don his new acquisition “The 1964 Ranchero” and just sitting around cutting up, thought I would put this picture in the Chatter. Tom and Don sitting together on the love sit. Sylvia and I were not about to give up our chairs so there they are sitting close. As you can see the Muffin man has grown some new hair on his chin, so now we have another fur face in the club. -

Panther De Ville
Panther De Ville Built for Oliver Reed Barry Boxall was part of the team that built this car Panther De Ville - CL-816-HN Panther Westwinds Build History (from 1979 to 2018) Owner History M.O.T. History Garage Bills/Parts History Maintenance/Repair History Suppliers/Part Numbers/Description History Photos Panther Westwinds known as 'Panther' was founded in 1972 by Robert Jankel. The Panther company enjoyed success throughout the 1970s with retro-styled cars based on the mechanical components of standard production cars from other manufacturers. The Panther Lima body shells were manufactured in Fibreglass, by Industrial Marine Fibreglass (IMF), who were based on the Milber Industrial Estate, Newton Abbot, Devon. Notable examples included 1975's Panther Rio: based on the Triumph Dolomite, but appointed to "Rolls-Royce standards" — the cost of which was equivalent to three Triumph Dolomites. Another, and particularly unusual, model was the three-axled Panther 6. During the late 1970s the company was also engaged in developing a hovercraft using a pair of Honda Gold Wing, 1000cc motorcycle engines; one for the lift fan and one for the directional thrust fan. This was developed in some secrecy at the home of one of the directors of the company in a barn in Surrey with technical help at one point from a specialist race mechanic working for a Honda dealership in South London. Progress and development stopped when the company collapsed. The present location, or even existence, of the vehicle is unknown. The Panther Westwinds company collapsed in 1980 and was purchased by Young Chull Kim. -

Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Miles Collier Collections Page 1 of 203 Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order. -
Newsletter –Autumn 2015
Winter 2015 Hon. Patron – Michael Aspel OBE Weybridge Memories: Peter’s Café By Louise Johncox Growing up in a tea shop means cakes hold memories for me. Some of these memories are happy, some sad, all are a reflection of my family life. My parents ran Peter’s in Weybridge from 1958 to 2000, where I grew up alongside my two older brothers and younger sister. All our lives were shaped by the traditional cakes our father made. It is one thing having a lot of cake memories, but when I decided to write a book, The Baker’s Daughter, what would be the best way to unlock all these memories? At first, I examined the old tea shop menu and drew up a list of the cakes and savouries, jotting down stories and anecdotes. I recalled certain customers by the name of their favourite pastries such as Mrs Meringue and Mrs Millefeuille. I visited my retired parents at the family home in Weybridge and asked them for any stories linked to the cakes and savouries. I also probed my siblings for their cake memories. My Mum, Frankie, a former nurse, married Dad in 1960, and they held their wedding reception in the tea room. At first, Mum was the most forthcoming with her recollections. The fact she was the welcoming face of the tea shop meant she had the most detailed knowledge of the customers who came in for their morning coffee, light lunch or afternoon tea (as the menu stated). Dad came from a long line of pastry chefs – his grandparents ran Beti’s in Ryde, Isle of Wight, and he grew up in his parents’ tea shop, Lane’s in Westcliff. -
2006 Amelia Island Concourse D'elegance by James Dorsey
Flatheads Forever June 2006 2006 Amelia Island Concourse d’Elegance By James Dorsey Every year I say that I’m going to Amelia Island Concourse d’Elegance. This year I went and had a great time. I first went to Savannah, stopping off to visit my daughter and new granddaughter. On Sunday morning March 12, we all drove down to Amelia Island to see the show. The show is held on the golf course of the Ritz Carlton hotel. This made a beautiful setting for all the cars and vendors. The dark green grass with the bright cars and tents made it a perfect place to have a show like this. There were rare and expensive antique and classic cars that you might only see in a special museum. A large number of about 20 Stanley Steamers started the show off with a parade on the green grass. You can only imagine what that looked like with the brightly painted cars with plumes of white steam on the green golf course. This in itself made it worth while to go see. Tucker’s Chip Cofer was there with his 1915 Mitchell Special Six. Early V-8 member Larry Bailey was there with his 7 passenger 1934 Ford sedan. There were several other Early V-8 Fords there, including the rare stainless steel 1936 Ford 2 door sedan. Anyone who loves antique and classic cars would enjoy a day at Amelia Island Concourse d’Elegance. The Editor’s Desk: July Monthly Meeting Sunshine Report!! Mary Ann Padovano has volunteered be The Sunshine Committee for the club.
