Columbia, South Carolina 8th Annual SOS

[65sunbeam]

12 Sunbeams and over 115 British cars in total are registered so far-looks like a big crowd is coming. We have half of the level field this year for the show so there is plenty of room for more. Todd has ordered great weather for the whole weekend so come and join us! Eric

I think I heard Eric say he was wearing one!

The extended forecast for next weekend is mid sixties for Saturday and Sunday.

Hope to see a bunch more nonregistered Sunbeams show up!!

Cheers,

Eric does not wear a kilt-don't have the legs for it......!
If anyone needs any large parts-soft top frame, windshield frame, bumpers, etc. let me know and I can bring them to the swap meet. Thanks, Eric

Well, I just got word that Paul's had other stuff come up. So the wife will be stepping into the co-pilot's seat.

Hopefully I'll be able to convince her to do as much to prep the car for the show as Paul usually does. I highly doubt it.

Thanks Greg! Look forward to seeing you. Anyone coming with you? Have any parts to sell in the parts room?

Cheers,

Sam, You at least have to wear those plaid shorts Beth bought you last year!! Please let the Tolbert's and the Allen's know!!

Should have a great turnout to see Eric Gibeaut in his Kilt!!

Cheers,

 

[sammaw@bellsout]

Kinda was hoping no one remembered the shorts

 

[Greggers]

Does anybody need anything specific for the parts room?

Stuff that can come from Atlanta area if anyone's interested:

• 5 wire wheels with hubs and new tires

Sunbeam SOS

Another great SOS! Thanks to all who attended and to Todd and Denise for setting everything up and taking good care of everyone. It was really good to see Bob and Judy with their Alpine again too! After a rainy Friday, the weather on Saturday started out around 40 degrees but warmed to the mid 50's under a clear blue Carolina sky. It was very windy though so the kilt wearers had jackets on this year. About 15 Sunbeams were in the show and they all gathered a coating of yellow pine pollen. Some folks got so relaxed in the SOS tent that they took a nap.......See y'all later this summer at the United!

 

[DanR]

That sure is a "Nice" looking Blue Alpine

Eric,

Is the white tiger on stock wheels your car? Looks like a nice original example of the breed.
