And you are invited…

Named “True Grit”, the Sunday Match 8th event starts at 10 a.m. and will end around 6 p.m. See you there…At the Destination Daytona Pavilion, 1635 North US Highway 1, Ormond Beach, Florida. More info at Carrie Repp.

    Cool , sounds like the place to be . I will bring my 1950 FL and join the fun. Nothing like OLD IRON to get the blood pumping …

    Being of a ‘ certain age ‘ … its a bit disconcerting to realize that now the pre-1970’s is considered ‘ vintage ‘ … that moniker previously having been reserved for pre- 1950’s . Eeesh … first I’m classic … now I’m vintage . So when does ancient come into play ? 😉

    Using today’s (yammering) demographics as the criterion……

    If its got drum brakes, is carburated and requires kick-starting……
    Then, anymore, its at last vintage.

    As far as a “participant’s age” goes, I’d say anything “pre-dirt-napp” qualifies just fine……. 🙂

    I plan on attending with my 1966 Triumph chopper. Sounds like a great event. Bit of a prelude to Willie’s show on Thursday.
