While in Palo Alto last Sunday, rushing to be on time to a friend's
wedding, i spotted a yellow Corvair, convertible, I think, with a for sale sign in the window. Didn't have time to check for phone numbers, price, or the like, but if anyone is interested I'm sure that some local member would be willing to drive by. The car was on Alma street. It was on the right side as I was going North, and was shortly before Alma crosses the tracks and ends at El Camino. I also know where there is an AC 2 litre Saloon that might be for sale if anyone is interested. it is early or mid 50's and is a 2-door if memory serves, and it is in Mountain view. I left a note with information about the Arcane club and the September BritCar meet, but have not heard back from the owner. David ps: Bryon, based on the number of Arcane (or nearly arcane cars) that pop up nearly at random, it seems to me that we could structure an event around a scavenger hunt for cars. Imagine 10-20 arcaners each assigned to a map grid driving up and down streets looking for candidates under car covers or in garages with the doors open. We could have little prizes for finding the most cars, finding the most Arcane car, etc. at the end of the search time we all congregate at some nice local eatery (or bar) and compile results. Any thoughts? David |

I think your 'Relic Hunt' is a great idea, David, but wonder if it's really

practical or if we'll end up driving around for an afternoon to find a single car each. But I'm sure open to thoughts. Like you, I'm always spotting things like the two you mentioned (although finding an AC is quite a find!) I find myself totally overwhelmed at the moment and unable to act on anything but the essentials. Unless someone wants to pick up the ball & run with this (in other words, planning an event and passing along all the info so it can just be pasted into a newsletter), it'll have to wait 'til life settles down somewhat, if that will ever happen...
