The Orrstown Bank is a local banking company in the Chambersburg PA (and surrounding small communities) area. One of the bank’s community outreach events is a car show that benefits BOPiC, a Chambersburg non-profit. The show is open to almost anyone willing to pay the entrance fee; one of our BRRTA members is in management at the bank so BRRTA tries to support the event. I think there were 11 cars there from BRRTA, including one member who brought his Studebaker turbo-Hawk. It was a very pleasant afternoon, and I had a chance to recover from the frustration of the drive up. It was a 3-hour drive complicated by having to go thru Thurmont (closest town to Camp David) on their “Colorfest Celebration” day. Everyone it seemed either had a yard sale, or was going to a yard sale. There was no parking except in peoples’ yards -for a price- so the traffic CRAWLED!!! But back to the show…pleasant time with friends, a chance to talk up going to Watkins Glen next year, and to buy $5. of drawing tickets which won me a $50. gift card to Advance Auto and $11 card to a pizza shop in Shippensburg. Needless to say, we took a different route home and shaved 1/2 hour off the time. The Daimler ran better than it has in a couple of years. Why you ask?? I made the complicated upgrade called new, hotter plugs. It runs slightly rich, and the hotter plugs don’t seem as inclined to foul. Yeh, I should mess with the SU carbs, but other than slight richness they seem balanced and work fine. If it ain’t broke, etc.
Great shots Dad… So glad to hear about the new plugs working well. Looked like some great weather too. Love, amy
