    Another off topic question :) I'd like to send flowers to someone who is in the hospital in Iran. Anyone familiar with how I can facilitate that? Thank you!

    Hi,

    Sorry for going AWOL for a while. Had a lot to take care of. Lot of fun stuff to report. Continuing with the 2010 P2P here is the morning start roster for heading from Rasht (Caspian Sea) to Tabriz (near Turkish border).

    Best Regards,

    Ramin

    Hi,

    The Classic Car Committee of East Azerbaijan (Tabriz Chapter) went all out to help the Itala get back on its feet, working with the owner side by side. Kudo's to a great host. They also held a great dinner reception for all the participants. East Azerbaijan is one of our most active chapters.

    Best Regards,

    Ramin

    Hi,

    Iran's classic vehicle committee members go through documentation with each car. Crowds follow. Unfortuntely I do not have the pictures as I was too busy processing the cars, however a group of school children lined up by the cars and handed over flowers to each of the participants.

    Best Regards,

    Hi,

    A good friend and colleague in our Classic Committee just finished a three year restoration and debuted the car in a club gathering a little while ago. Details to follow. Neat car with a interesting history before it ended up in Iran.

    Best regards,

    Ramin

    Hi,
    Here is the pic. Before the unveiling ( no pun intended as that has different meaning in my neck of the woods). On the right is a film of the restoration. You can understand given all the limiations we face, international and otherwise, he did a hell of a job on the car.

    Regards,

    Ramin

    Hi,

    And here she is with her veil uncovered. The car is a 1969 Shelby. It was first delivered to Shelby from the plant were it spent the first four months of its life. It was the shipped to Iran were it lead an interesting life until being bought by Amir Bagheri the President of the Mustang Club of Iran. I covered the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang which the Club did on the preceding pages.

    Regards,

    Hi,

    And here she is in her full glory. A lot of the people do not go for the 69-70 Shelby body style. In my view it is gorgeous.

    Hi,

    Just a couple more. Remember all these cars have spent their whole lives in Iran. You would not believe the challenges these guys face to keep them on the road.
