Photos from Our Events

I don't expect I can make it to every event this summer.  Todd Wilson ( www.chargerfever.com ) is also taking pictures for us (thanks again Todd).  I saw a lot of digital cameras at Newton, so if you happen top get some good shots of this summer's events, or you have photos from previous years, please label them and e-mail them to me at donaldwgrier@yahoo.com. If you want to scan pictures originally taken with a conventional film camera, remember 120dpi is more than adequate for web photos.

Cyber Trucks - This from Wheat State’r Todd Wilson: Several years ago I found an old oil field Dart in a boneyard at Pratt. A friend of mine bought it and it ended up in Iowa. I was talking Darts at a chapter meeting one time when Gary Crow got involved in the conversation. He said he knew of 2 Darts in Pratt. He had photos and 8mm video of them in action. After looking at my photos he thought his footage was of my friends Dart. He got the 8mm converted to DVD and I got to watch the video today. Amazing to see the truck in action! I snapped some still photos of the video tonight as well as adding photos of how I found the truck a few years ago. There is a possibility this Dart will be at the ATHS 08 in May here in Hutch! Enjoy! http://www.chargerfever.com/dart/index.html.
