Was cruisin the Mailing List Archives, again (don't tell my boss) & discovered, that on 1/07/05, Dave Stragand, and Edward Petrus had separately spoken with Virgil Exner, JR, about his possibly attending the 2005 Carlisle 'show', regarding his interest in presenting a dissertation, on his/his father's experiences in designing (our) cars. JR had reportedly designed the XNR 2-seater concept car, around 1961 (IIRC????), [ AND, IIRC (ii), the XNR-car may have been stolen by Iraq soldiers, from Kuwait, in 1991, & its whereabouts is unknown???) ] . According to the 1/07/05 post, JR was not certain if his personal schedule could accomodate the Carlisle date, altho Dave stated that the FWDLK 'site' may have been willing to cover JR & his wife's travel expenses, to Carlisle. I couldn't find any "outcome", to Dave's 'invite', but, "NOW", could it be possible for someone, who knows JR, to contact him, & invite him to TULSA? I'm sure we could 'reserve' a meeting room, @ the Doubletree, for the 'talk/presentation', AND, if necessary to cover JR's travel expenses, I'll bet we could charge an admission fee, too. The best date/time for the presentation would be on THUR 6/14/07, at about 7PM (e.g.) . Reportedly, the National Plymouth Club is planning to stay @ the Doubletree, but, that is only 'hear-say', to me. WELL, can anyone (here?) contact Mr Exner & invite him, to "speak" @ Tulsa?
