I've just got back to my hotel after a lovely visit to Bellingham.
I'd like to thank Brian and Barb Curtis, and Stephanie and James Bell and Stephanie's parents for showing me respectively, their city and environs, and the wonderful Bell collection, the coffee, beer and pizza were excellent.
We swapped shirts - as I left my South Australian shirt in exchange for the Bell T-shirt I'm wearing.
I can highly recommend a visit to these lovely folks, was great to see a police car, Wagonaire with the camper shell, and the engine and other components from Avanti no 1, unfortunately the upholstery shop was shut and Brian was unable to show me the Avanti, but never mind, great to know it'll be on the road again soon.
If I had to choose a favourite, I'd pick the 1958 Packard sedan, just lovely.
Unfortunately, I'm unable to attend their September open day, but a November visit may be possible.
