2018 Chicago Region Events

So who all is going to Hinsdale Fuelfed this Sunday?

 

Lake Forest Sportscars. I took this photo on a Sunday in 1989. That's a 412's lights lurking in the center of the photo.

Thanks Tom.

The old Knauz building is now a bank also. Actually, it's "Wells Fargo Advisors". The first photo was taken in 1973. They were the Chicago area Ferrari dealer at the time as well as Mercedes, BMW, Alfa Romeo and next door, Chrysler-Plymouth. I'm right under the BMW sign with my massive '70's hair. Bill Knauz is in the front row with his arms folded. The second photo shows the building and those same steps today.

Stan and jp. Nice to meet you guys. Was a good show

 

The feeling is mutual Mike! I really enjoyed it.

 

Used to sign up for Punt, Pass and Kick there when it was a Ford store!

 

Cool shot! Looks like Mr. Bellei to the frame-right in the 2nd row behind Bill Knauz. He'd give us auto parts stickers for our notebooks (his son had a cool 383 Roadrunner!). Bruce D. to your right w/the sideburns?

 

Been out traveling the past couple weeks, should be at the next couple meets as a spectator

 

Yes. Bruce Donnelly, for sure.

Erich Beisswinger is over Bill's shoulder with his head tilted down. He was the service manager.

I can name about half of the people in the photo.

 

Great day at Fuelfed. Sorry no pics, I've got to get better with that. Thank you to everybody who helped with today's event. Mike, great to meet you in person and put a face to the Fchat posts. Hugh and Margaret, nice to meet you. Looking forward to talking to you again and seeing the Dino and your other cars. Robert, always good to swap info on QMs. Good luck with the resto.
Are there any events happening next weekend?

 

Geneva Concours in two weeks.

 

Was looking for Jim Pearce and Gary Sisler, though not sure if they were there yet? Worked w/Bruce's dad, "Dynamite", at Blanchard's. Good dude!
