Mt. Pearl, Newfoundland

 

Married - 2 sons
We have been members of The Edsel Owners Club and International Edsel Club

since early 70's. I'm one of the founding members of NF Antique &

Classic Car Club formed in Oct. '80 and was elected and served as

president for six years. Since then I'm still very active in all club

activities. We are members of Nova Scotia Mustang Club and our son is a

member of Falcon Club of America

 

We have driven our Edsel’s to National Meets in Virginia 1981, Detroit

1982, Harrisburg PA & London Ont. in 1985. We've done a two week

cruise with other members of NF Antique and Classic Car Club to Cape

Cod, Mass. We have also been very involved in both 1992 Cross Canada

Tour and Coast to Coast 2000 Tour in which we went all the way. This

past summer Thelma and I and three other couples did a 10 day tour of

PEI, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in our Mustangs. I do all the work

on our cars and can drive any of them anywhere.

 

I have been Membership Director in the National Association for many

years and the NF Representative since we became a member club.

I believe there should be a National body for many reasons. A large

group with representation coast to coast can have a great impact when

dealing with Federal and Provincial matters concerning the old car

hobby. Also, with provincial representation you know what’s happening in other

parts of the country.

 

Through the old car hobby we have made good friends in every province of

Canada, U.S.A., England, Norway, Iceland and New Zealand.
