Sigh. I dare not answer that question!

Actually, I mentioned it to my wife and she immediately tried to think of ways we could work the car show into our plans. She's a good egg.

 

Special Thanks to XKgr8 for bringing this to our attention!

This one is this coming weekend. I'm in with the missus, and we're making a weekend of it at Whistler. Here's hoping the weather behaves!

 

Ooo -- I'll be up at Whistler this weekend with the Missus too. Look for the collection of old cars built at Crewe -- it's the annual gathering of such and this year it's at Whistler! Stop by and say Hi if you see my Dark Blue one.

 

Are you referring to a different event? Or the one I'm going on?

 

Sorry I missed you Brian. It was a great day, about 50 cars, from a 37 Rolls to a 2014 Bentley. A real mix of brands and eras. Lots of Jags, E types, XJS, Mark 10s, etc.

 

Yeah, we had club events until almost 3 -- I'll catch ya next week!

 

Sadly, it appears the 37 Rolls was in an accident on the way back. Didn't look too serious, but it was on the news.

 

Ouch.... kinda depressing...

 

Apparently left side damage, wheel damage and a fuel leak, but that's all I can find.
I know he said he could cruise at 40 mph on the way up, maybe the slow speed caught someone by surprise.

 

That's terrible!

 

Actually, it was the 1911 Ghost that was in the accident. One of the wheels failed, it slewed sideways, and then was hit from behind. Gas tank was ruptured, but no fire. Drivers were OK as speeds were low. It was the oldest registered Rolls in Canada. Initial reports are that it wasn't critically damaged, so other than inconvenience... it's fixable. It's (obviously? lol) the green one in the below pics. The engine compartment is beautiful...

 

I just found that out. I emailed the organizer of our event. All I saw was a distant shot on the evening news, and you could tell it was a Rolls, but not the colour.

I'm glad to hear it wasn't too bad.

So JWS V8 tells me there is a British Vs. France gathering at Griots Garage in Tacoma this Saturday. Maybe some Jag owners wanna go show off?

Nice!
Hope you guys get some numbers...

 

Sounds like JSW V8 gonna make it, and weather has turned to what could be a nice day!
Could be fun to see a group of Cats go annoy those pesky French types.

Griots is a great PNW vender gone international... Has JF ever tried to get them on as a sponsor, or is that something they normally reach out to you for?
