Gentle Thought for the Day
Aging: Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age
and start bragging about it..
Dustin’s Cobra Unveiling
On February 10th, Sam and Theresa Pietzold invit-
ed the club and other friends to the unveiling of
their son‟s Dustin‟s beautiful 66 Cobra. Dustin was
home on leave from the U. S. Air Force to finish
the car and enter it into the Salem Roadster show.
We‟re all wondering if the smile has left Dustin‟s
face yet!
New WVSR Club Members
The Salem Roadster Show had another great turn out of
different show cars from around the Northwest. Thanks
Greg and Bob. Car stuff going on for March is the Port-
land Roadster Show the 18th thru the 20th at its new
location the Expo Center. The Eugene Roadster Show on
the 26th and 27th. PIR/Portland swap meet March 31st
thru April 3rd. And March 5th is the First Annual Swap
meet in Keizer, I believe at the Volcanoes Stadium, Don't
forget for those who like shop tours, Sat the 26th of
Feb. there will be a shop tour at Ron and Sandy
Stogstill's. I've been there before and they have a lot
of neat stuff. This is a must see if you like shop tours.
We usually meet at the Guest House on North Portland
Rd for breakfast at 9am and leave around
10am. Thanks Greg
Robert Kundelius has been working on his „51 Chevy this
winter and it now sports a new paint job with a “flying eye”
dash by Don Erickson. Looking good Robert!

Getting to Know You
Sandi Norris and Michael Simpkins.
When I met Sandi, she made me feel very welcome to
WVSR! She always greeted me with a smile, always asked if
I had a place to sit, and in general just put herself to the
job of being a great "greeter". Sandi is sharing responsibili-
ties of the Membership this year with WVSR's Ray Agen.
Sandi did this alone last year, but with so many new mem-
bers being added, and the fact that Sandi holds down a
pretty demanding job, this year she is sharing the task. She
had no car of her own, but shares the love of the classic
cars and the WVSR "family".
Sandi is from the South coast. I have always liked that area
(Ken Parsons came from there as well), and I can't imagine
not living there! But Sandi insists she likes Salem!
Corvettes, corvettes, corvettes! Sandi lives and breathes
her love for Corvettes, but most recently seems to live and
breathe for her new guy (and new WVSR member) Michael
Simpkins. Recently the couple were judges at the WVSR
Valentine's dinner. They make a really cute couple!
Michael Simpkins is a computer guy. He is very quiet until
someone gets him to having fun! I think he is a very nice
guy. He does not have his project yet, but we all welcome
him with open arms anyway! I know you WVSR guys will
bring him into the club, help him out, and show him the
ropes. Michael will tell you more about himself as you get to
know him. For now, I am pleased to call him my good friend
and fellow car club member!
WVSR is all about cars, family, friends, and fun. If you want
to have a conversation about any of that, these are the
folks to talk to, and if you know someone who wants to be a
member, send them Sandi's way.

Lynn Vickers in their '69 one recent Sunday near the Harris
covered bridge outside of Philomath and the Rittner Bridge

Club Members Adventures
Valentines Day
On Friday, February 11th, many of the club mem-
bers got together at the Salem Heights Hall to
enjoy a dinner out for Valentines Day. Everyone
enjoyed Prime Rib or Chicken Cordon Bleu plus
desert. And I understand some liquid refresh-
ments were also enjoyed by many. After dinner,
Russ, Margie, Ken, and Vicki surprised everyone
with WVSR‟s version of the Newlywed Game. Un-
fortunately Bob Eubanks couldn‟t make it so Russ
did an excellent job standing in for him.
Tom tries to guess what Jane‟s answer was
Dinner looks yummy
Pam, what was Jeff‟s answer to
“What color dress did Pam wear on your first date?”
