First pics Badenoch 2013 SDC Ontario Chapter

[warrlaw1]

Just made it home and glad I went. Paul Revell is an excellent host and the SDC chapter folk are no slouches, either. Found a couple of great parts (carter V8 fuel pump rebuildable core so I can exchange one with Phil Harris) and a couple of nice red hawk armrests cause my doggie uses her's for a step up to the window. Newbie to the forum, Kato, found the meet and was treated to a burn out and launch in Allen Anderson's R2 SuperHawk. That was a treat just watching. It was raining in Barrie when I started out but cleared up before Badenoch. I washed my car last night, so I have no one but myself to blame for the soaking.

very nice!!!

that '58 Packard wants me to go out and commit a crime to pursue ownership!!!

[warrlaw1]

That Packard was pretty. Never got to see under the hood. Probably a Paxton hiding in there!

Why would you think that? It wasn't built with a supercharger.

Refresher: 1957 Packards all had superchargers; for 1958, the only Packard with a supercharger was the Hawk.

Well, it did have a little rise in the hood

Thank you to all who attended, yakked, listened, presented, brought parts, bought parts, took pictures, posted pictures, ate, drank, dragged, and helped clean up.

The hall is booked again for next year - the last Saturday in April for the 41st annual event.

Why would you think that?

Maybe he thought it might be one of the many that are running around with a blower?
Built that way or not, there are more then a few '58 Packards that I know of set up that way.
Mine isn't one of them~ yet. Sadly, I don't think the one in the photo is either.

That's for the radiator cap. True story.

After looking at post#2, fifth picture from left.....I had to run out to the garage to make sure My Speedster was still there!

Beautiful cars, beautiful spot!

not the only "little rise" involved seeing that '58 Packard!

sorry, couldn't resist...

SN-60 that is Warrlaw's (Dave's) beautiful black 1955 Commander HT. He wold like to add a four barrel so he can PSMCD it.

I missed a couple of later arrivals. I was spending time with Peter Sant picking his drag racing knowledge. Allen Anderson's GT Hawk was pretty, as always, and a 36 Ford Tudor rolled in. Steve T was the official greeter with his camera and should have lots of pics.

Five days later and I still can't get the smile off my face after the burn out and launch in Allen Anderson's R2! Thanks Dave for putting in the word for me and thanks again Allen for the ride. An absolutely fantastic car Allen's R2 SuperHawk! It was a pleasure meeting everyone at Badenoch and I look forward to next year, hopefully with a Studebaker of my own!
