MARC National Meet at Oshkosh was well attended by our Missouri Valley representatives.
Club Officers Prior to the meet, I expected the overall turnout to be down by around 50%, however the late
President entrants boosted the attendance up to around 60 or 70 percent of a pre-COVID meet. The
Gene Roehl, 618-977-2456 welcome banquet was held on Tuesday evening during which time national newsletter awards
g4jroehl@charter.net were presented. Of the 74 regions represented, 14 of them received recognition or awards.
The final announcement was for the best overall newsletter covers produced for the region’s
Vice President newsletters. All of the Missouri Valley attendees were jubilant when the winner of this great
Ryan Fine, 314-369-7474 award was announced for the Valley News, and its’ editors, Rich and Judy Dann! Wednesday

donmccallie@msn.com I’m sitting in a hotel room in Albuquerque as I finish the June 2021 Valley News. This marks
nine years of editing our monthly magazine. I can still remember Charlie Henerey asking for a

award was given to myself and Judy, but please remember this, nearly all cover shots for the
newsletter in the last year were provided by Gene Cogorno. Then, we also must remember
that Gene needed cars to photograph, and that is where you come in. So my thanks goes out to
Editors everyone who submitted an article and had their car photographed for the Valley News. I guess
what I am trying to say here is that it is a team effort that makes the Valley News....and I thank
all of you who contribute.
Lastly, it seems as though COVID restrictions are starting to come down. There seem to be
less event cancellations, which is good for us. As always, use good judgement while interacting
with large crowds, but don’t let it stop you from getting out there and enjoying your A.

Telephone Museum was constructed as a two-story duplex using Quartermaster Plan 115. It is one
of two remaining structures that was part of Officers’ Row located on the north side of the former
parade grounds. The parade ground, central to the entire post, was the site of military drill and
ritual. Placement of quarters around the parade ground was a clear delineation of military rank, with
officers on the northern perimeter. In 1909, electricity was added to the duplexes and bathrooms
were installed in 1925. Sunrooms were added on the second floor and the first floor areas beneath

MVRMARC Anniversaries Lead-Foot Grandpa
The following MVRMARC members have reached significant By Brett Huffman
anniversaries with the club this year. My grandpa and I came across this 28 Sport Coupe in 1976 in
a field in Boulder, Colorado. It was covered in mud and manure but
Fred Burk - 60 year pin still showed some Niagara Blue peeking through. It was a favorite
Larry Shepard - 40 year pin scratching post to the local cows. The farmer had long intentions
Bruce Williams - 35 year pin of fixing it up, but it was a project in a long line of projects.
David Colvin - 30 year pin My grandpa gave him a lowball offer - $200 I think. And the
farmer told him to kiss-off. As the story goes, when his wife heard
what happened, she told him to get his ass out the door, track us
down, and take that offer.
In the coming years my grandpa, and partially me, would
tear the car apart and create a mountain-goat Model A. He put a
1932 4-banger in it with a police head (got to have 4 more HP),
a B-W Overdrive from an old Hudson, and a tube radio out of an
old Plymouth. Everything else is pretty stock (except the wheels,
which work better with the overdrive.)
It was all to get up in the mountains and enjoy the outdoors
with his favorite car.
My most vivid memory was us hauling ass while going around
a corner. I was slightly leaning on the door. One moment I was in
the car, and the next I was flying through the air and rolling down a
ditch. My grandpa screeched to a halt and yelled out the open back,
“What the hell are you doing out there? Get back in here and stop
crying!“ To this day, I don’t lean on car doors!
Stan and Mary Sorrels 1931 A400 received the MARC of Excellence
A couple of years ago, I was visiting him and out of the blue,
Award, and Henry Award at the MARC National Meet in Oshkosh, Wisc.
The A400 garnered 493 points in fine-point judging. (Gene Cogorno) he said let’s go for a drive. I started driving as he was blind at this
point. He couldn’t see 2 feet in front of himself. But soon he said,
“Scoot the hell over. I’m driving!”
With a screech, we took off down the back roads of Denver.
I was his eyes, yelling at him to slow down, turn right, watch out
for the mailbox, stop sign! Several times I had to do a frantic stop
with the e-brake. My life flashed before my eyes. After about 30
minutes of this harrowing, E-Ticket ride, he went into a parking lot
and stopped. He knew that was the last time he would drive her.
When he passed a couple of months later I brought his beloved
Sport Coupe to St Louis. It runs pretty well, but I think it misses
his lead foot and the long mountain climbs.

The Secret Speedster
By Jim Flowers
I’ve always thought about building an era correct speedster. I
call it the Secret Speedster because I kept this project pretty much a
secret until I started the build. I didn’t want to destroy a restorable
car so I started to accumulate parts. Whenever I say ‘we’ it means
me and Tom Holtgrave.
It started in Branson at the 2018 MARC meet where I bought
a 28 Closed Cab Pickup cowl and sub frame. I acquired the frame,
axles, wheels and hood from Palmer Lawson. The brakes were like
new and only needed cleaning up. The engine and transmission
came from Tom Holtgrave. We pulled the pan and it was like
new inside. The engine had a small frost crack that was repaired
successfully with JB Weld. The gas tank ($60) and radiator shell
($40) came from Hershey. My brother-in-law Steve of Al’s South For Sale: 1928-1929 chassis. No motor or transmission. $300 OBO. I

With the running chassis we started sand blasting, metal
prepping, welding, and priming. With body filling, sanding, body

together. This would never have been done with out Tom’s advice,
assistance, and critiquing. With the body in primer (January 2021),
we trailered the car to my brother-in-law’s shop. We tore down the
car so we could paint. After wet sanding and masking we painted
the car a light gray (to help hide my body work flaws). About mid

Although the weather was warmer than expected or desired,
the meet had a reasonable turnout, post pandemic, with roughly
two-thirds attendance this year, over previous year’s attendance.
Fine Point Judging however was the exception, as they had

to get the final tweaks into these fabulous examples of the highest

In late May , Gary Mertz came over to my house to guide me in installing
a font door window channel kit for my 1930 Tudor. I purchased the
kit from Mac’s in Lockport, N.Y. The old window channel material
came out easily. It had been in the car for a long time. I don’t believe
it was original. Installing the new material, we needed to make a few
modifications to the side channels to fit in the door. It’s nice to drive
the car without the front windows rattling. (Neil Clavers)
