Dan, What a wonderful thing to be at, a balloon festival! I'm enjoying your shots. I wish the Fireman was a bit more separated from the one behind it. Regards, Bob S. On Wed, Jul 31, 2013 at 8:42 AM, Daniel J. Matyola wrote: > From the New Jersey Festival of Ballooning. > A tribute to the Fireme

Great stuff, Paul. A friend of mine in Rhodesia used to have a Cord (plus a 1928 Fiat roadster). I well remember a couple of short trips in it. He had to pull away in 2nd gear because it shuddered so badly in 1st. He said it was one of only two which were ever imported into Southern Africa. The
