Mr Bounds.
Thank you for your weekly preservation social commentary.
I highly suggest you stop criticising the decisions of preservation groups
with respect to the cars they choose to preserve. I for one am becoming
tired of it.
Perhaps you should consider becoming a committee member of a preservation
group and then offer your input in a proactive fashion.
Thank You.If you do not like my commentries,then tune out.If some body does not comment about what mistakes the preservation groups are making,then nothing will be done and the bad order cars will be preserved.Not the cars in reasonable condition.
I was involved withg the T.M.S.V and contributed man hours,and money to preserve vehicles.I am still prepared to put my money where my mout is.But no body has had the decency to ask for my contributions.I have not seen your name in Running Journal making any contributions.
Finally I repeat no 5 is the wrong car to go to Bylands,83 is in better condition.,and 67 should have been
preserved.
