rcollum Posted September 7, 2019 Author Posted September 7, 2019 New Lotus owner Joo Sung Lee brought his Krypton Green Exige to Katie's today. By comparison, my Ardent Red Elise is very subdued. (I hope to have my Seven back by next Saturday... just having the alternator checked...) --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted September 14, 2019 Author Posted September 14, 2019 A good Lotus turnout! Two recent Lotus owners brought an Esprit and an Exige. Bob drove his CO Elise, and I had my Seven. --Bob Collum

rcollum Posted September 21, 2019 Author Posted September 21, 2019 A good turnout at Katie's today. I hope you can make it to our Get Your Lotus Out on Sunday, 09/22/19 - http://novalotusclub.freeforums.net/thread/588/gylo-lotus-sunday-sept-2019 --Bob Collum

rcollum Posted September 28, 2019 Author Posted September 28, 2019 Plenty to see at Katie's this morning. --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted October 5, 2019 Author Posted October 5, 2019 A pretty good turnout today - a Westfield and my Caterham in attendance. We had a gorgeous sunrise, and some nice cars. --Bob Collum
panamericano Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Great photos. Thanks. Lovely Westy. re the numbers really that big, or does the tiny car just make them looks huge? Nice Montreal. Great car. STILL under valued IMO. Omega? Intermecanica? Apollo? Let's see, they had at least one more name. The Vetta Ventura did not come as a roadster, so??
rcollum Posted October 6, 2019 Author Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) Great photos. Thanks. Lovely Westy. re the numbers really that big, or does the tiny car just make them looks huge? Nice Montreal. Great car. STILL under valued IMO. Omega? Intermecanica? Apollo? Let's see, they had at least one more name. The Vetta Ventura did not come as a roadster, so?? Thanks. That version of the Virginia plates do have gigantic numbers. Another Virginia oddity was a special license plate for convertibles, but they stopped issuing those in the 60's. I like the Montreal, too. That's an Intermeccanica Italia. Beautiful lines, and a flawless paint job (done locally). Ford 351. --Bob Collum Edited October 13, 2019 by rcollum
rcollum Posted October 13, 2019 Author Posted October 13, 2019 On 10/12/19, Lotus attendance at Katie's started out slow, but ended up pretty amazing! Early on, my red Elise was joined by a yellow Exige. Just about the time I left (~8:00AM), a white Europa arrived (I never caught up with the owner). Notice that the Europa is parked behind another very early mid-engine car. As I was about to drive away, Steve M. pulled in next to me in his Omega! (No Sevens today.) --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted October 26, 2019 Author Posted October 26, 2019 A strange day at Katie's. A slow start - not many people there early, but lots of spaces had been roped off by the owner of Katie's. It was a while before people started showing up, but we found out why the spaces were reserved - Wayne Carini of TV show Chasing Classic Cars was in the area, to pick up a TVR Griffith he had bought locally. Wayne had a small film crew there, and he had contacted some local friends to bring out some special cars: Bob Morris's Allard, Joe Barta's BMW 507, Ian Landy's 1929 Bentley, and one of Eric Zaussner's Moal hotrods. --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted October 26, 2019 Author Posted October 26, 2019 Of course, we had silliness on the Saturday before Halloween. --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 A cold morning (31F), but a fair showing of cars today. That's my friend Caleb Yow behind my fogged-up Elise - he's up in the area for a friend's wedding. A little of everything at Katie's, from a guy who was late for Halloween, to a tuner GTR. --Bob Collum
xcarguy Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Bob, I never mention it, but thanks for sharing theses posts. I enjoy looking through the photos of unique cars that show up here. X
rcollum Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 Thanks, glad you enjoy it! --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted November 23, 2019 Author Posted November 23, 2019 A cold morning - my first day back after the trip to England. Turnout at Katie's was lower than it has been, but quality was high. --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 31F this morning, but skies are crystal clear! A great day to drive to Katie's early. Another bonus: in cold weather, we don't have throngs of people everywhere. A good selection of nice cars, though... --Bob Collum
rcollum Posted December 21, 2019 Author Posted December 21, 2019 This time of year, Katie's is more about catching up with friends than ogling cars. Still, there's always something interesting there... --Bob Collum
