High octane Posted July 1, 2010 Author Share Posted July 1, 2010 Jim999, Yes I was a member from about '75 to the end which was '86 if I'm not mistaken. I remember your dad well and he was a great guy. I was even at your house before your dad and mom (Marilyn) divorced. Your dad did a great job putting on the swap meets by himself at the Hillside Holiday Inn when the club didn't want to do it anymore. Craig and I ran the model contest for your dad at the shows. I still have a couple of his business cards that say Chicago On Wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
