Hey Frank, Thanks a bunch for 1) taking these great shots, and 2) posting them! I found our car coming off the bridge and in a few of the concourse shots! I was really hoping to get a look at the shots from whoever was carting around that huge ladder, and what do you know, my hope came true. -Jeff Horrocks, Blue '36 Phaeton w/ skirts

Yes there was one but I had no time to get pics there. The concourse ones I took for the awards brunch and the covered bridge ones were given to me. I got there for a bit on Tuesday and heard it was pretty full on Monday. The show was rather spread out but it was in the confines of the park. They also had a hard line policy on bringing food in the lounge but shit happens.

In spite of a few limitations we needed to work with, I think many agreed this was an ideal layout.

It isn't as good as being there, Mke, but it would be a whole lot cheaper!!

Ken,
Not a big swap meet but lots of Ford parts. Charlie NY and Dick S were there and selling carbs and pumps like they were going out of style. Probably sold all they brought with them. A great site for the meet and Frank and Brandon and all their helpers worked hard to make this meet an overwelming success.

John

ps, You know I was just kidding about the carb/pump sales lol

Frank, A big thanks to you and all the others who worked on making this a great national meet and thanks for all the pictures. The concourse set up was absolutely gorgeous. I'm always happy when I can be around that many nice old Ford V8's. The flea market was also good. I spent most of Monday morning there. Bill Wzorek's shock seminar was good. I got 10% off on a set of four rebuilds for attending, plus I won his 25% off a set of four rebuilds in the raffle items. Now if I can only figure out how to win another 65% off, I can get a complete set done for free

THanks for taking such nice pics and for sharing them. Alot of love in those cars and trucks! Saratoga is a beautiful area, THe site was perfect for a show.

Vic Piano · 07-18-2011, 06:49 AM

Most excellent! Thanks Frank. Vic

JM 35 Sedan · 07-18-2011, 12:43 PM

Here are some of my pictures taken at Saratoga Springs. They were taken with my Droid camera phone so may not be the best. You will probably see some duplication with Franks pictures. I can only post 15 pictures at a time using this method, so will need to make more posts with more pictures. As usual, click on first picture to get full size image. Then click on next at bottom of screen to view others.

JM 35 Sedan · 07-18-2011, 12:53 PM

More pics from Saratoga...............

JM 35 Sedan · 07-18-2011, 01:02 PM

That's all Folks

Vic Piano · 07-18-2011, 02:43 PM

John, Thanks for posting, the '40 Zephyr sure is a beauty as are all the others. I think that '36 CS could use a few more lights and reflectors on the rear end...LOL Vic

Henry/Kokomo · 07-18-2011, 03:04 PM

Many thanks to both Frank and John. Great pix and looks like it was a like a super event.

Vic, I took those Zephyr pictures with you in mind. It is a beautiful car. Those pictures don't do it justice.
I think that '36 CS from NJ had all the lights and reflectors on the back to help keep those other jerzy drivers from rear ending him

. I took those CS pictures with Al Casteen in mind since he keeps a list of all known examples that he can find.

Frank Miller · 07-18-2011, 05:42 PM

Juhn,
Great pics. You even got the reflecting pond to reflect.

Brendan · 07-18-2011, 06:05 PM

thanks, John looks like you had a good time!

37don · 07-18-2011, 06:16 PM

Thanks for the great pics Frank, looks like everyone had a good time. All those old Fords in one place is like being in a candy store.
