Default Greetings from Washington County

Just checking in from Washington County. I like between Bennington and Blair, but still consider Omaha "home". Finally got the Jag out of the garage the last few weeks, but will be parking it for a few days with the rainy weather moving in.

I don't see a lot of Jags on the road in Omaha, but make it a point to wave at those I do encounter. I drive a red XK8 with a tan convertible. Plates read "QUIK CAT". Honk or wave if you see me on the road!

Default Fairbury

Live in Fairbury, (FairWhere?) LOL. just bought my 84 XJS, and from what I see, I am the only one in town with a Jaguar. Bought it from a guy in Beatrice, and think it was the only one there also. Who knows, when I get the urge to make one of my road trips we may pass one another, only I like taking the older routes most of the time. Got love them back roads with a Jag.

I'm originally from Hebron. I'll be storing my car down there for the winter. I'm sure my dad will drive it around. Maybe you'll see him on 136 some time.

went for a drive this past weekend to Hebron, took my sister for a ride in the Jag, washed the car at the carwash there. (Do have one here in town, just felt like a drive LOL) Had to stop by the park for her to see and sit in "The Swing", then down the highway towrd Bellvue, onto highway 8 and back to Fairbury. That was my first so called long run.

I'm back in! I sold my 2002 XK8 last summer to a guy in Lincoln, NE, and just got back a few weeks ago from West Palm Beach, where I picked up a nice clean 2008 XK convertible (black on black, caramel interior). She's loaded, and a blast to drive. In fact, I think I'll grab she-who-must-be-obeyed, drop the top (the car's, not hers), and go for a spin tonight.

I wanted to add a couple of events as a possible get together for everyone in the area:

Saturday, June 27th
All-European Car Show
Caddy's Riverside Grille 2 Harrah's Blvd., Council Bluffs, IA 51501.

The only details I saved from the website are shown below:
REGISTRATION STARTS AT 9:00 AM
SHOW AT 11:00AM
NO REGISTRATION FEE


Sunday, September 13
Noon - 3 p.m.
All European Show & Shine
https://www.lauritzengardens.org/Vis...how_and_Shine/

I went to the one down at Lauritsen Gardens a few years ago, and there were some wonderful old cars there, including some vintage Jags. Hope to see a few of you chaps at one or more of these events.

Kurt

Bob here in Overland Park, Kansas. Do a lot of collision equipment sales in Omaha. Lincoln and the surrounding area. Member of Heart of America Jaguar Club. Completing second (ground up) restoration on black '64 E ots. Just sold my beloved '05 S Type R and am actively searching for a nicely equipped recent XF. E type enthusiast since I purchased my E type back in '81 for $2,685.00!! not a bad deal by today's standard's.

Also a Lotus enthusiast. Have owned three Lotus Europa's including a very early rare '67 (the same exact car I first spied in '67 cruising about Lawrence, KS and started my Europa lust), a later '71, and a fully restored/uprated '74 Twincam Special which now resides in Japan.

Hi Bob,
If I run across any listings I'll certainly pass them along. Since you are a collision equipment sales rep I'm sure you have many contacts in Omaha for PDR work. Any suggestions? I've got some door dings and 5 or 6 hail dents that I would like removed to make my Jag just right!
