Generaux, Bob Porter, John Porter and A.J. Porter. They prevailed by a 7-stroke
margin of victory.
Joanne and Jim Hendry missed the Concourse event as he was hospitalized
with a heart attack the evening before. A group effort managed to get their '53
Mercury to the display. A stint was inserted and Jim was on the mend quickly. As
Todd Gudmundson brought Jim home from the medical center, Todd's Meteor
Convertible stalled. Leave it to Jim to get under the hood and get the car going
again, within minutes of his release!
Gary Duff logged the most miles of any PSRG member round-trip for the meet
in his '40 Coupe. Gary departed early to attend the Winthrop Car Show, then
traveled to Redmond, Oregon - and returned home via Vantage to take in the
Flathead Challenge. He recorded over 1,400 miles!

Subject: Repairing Hearts & Engines
A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a
Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon
in his shop.
The surgeon was there, waiting for the service manager to
come and take a look at his bike.
The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hey, Doc, can I ask
you a question?"
The surgeon a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic
working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up,
wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this
engine. I open its heart, take the valves out, fix 'em, put 'em
back in, and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I
get such a small salary and you get the really big bucks, when
you and I are doing basically the same work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered
to the mechanic...
"Try doing it with the engine running”.
Thanks to Ron Lang

Minutes

Bob opened the meeting at 7:10
Bob thanked all workers and those that brought food in
tonight..
No new members tonight. Also no needs or leads tonight.
Bob skipped the last board meeting minuets, and went to
the treasures report, Lois reported that all is well and paid
up to date.
Mark reported that the Oct. meeting will be the show and
tell night, and Sharon will run it.
Gary will give a report on the western meet at the next
meeting.

items will be donated to the Good Will.
Fall Banquet, the registration forms are in the newsletter so
please get you money so the planning can go on thank you.
Nominations—Mark reported that we are still are looking for
someone to run for the three main offices. We talked about
this for a few minutes with no decisions made.
Pete talked about the students from Sno-Isle tech Skills
Center school. This year they had so many wanting to
come that they had to cut some. It seems that Snohomish
County requires so many hours of community support so we
will always get all the help we need next year. Pete thinks
it is good for our club as well as good for the kids.
A note that Todd has tour planned for Oct.13 and Guy Tour
of the year on the 14th.
For all that did not come tonight, you miss a good feed.
We have some great cooks in pout club, so be sure you all

The entertainment for the October meeting is SHOW-NTELL. Those who have participated before know that
club members like anything from rusty to shiny, new to
old, “what the heck is this?” to a detailed descriptions
of the item. Have a story that goes along with it? We
really want to hear it! So, give this some though and look
through your collections of things. I can’t wait to see what
you are going to bring!

August Engine Seminar
By Bruce Anderson, including photography
On August 25th Gary Duff demonstrated how to replace
a rear main seal on a 59 style flathead V-8. The seal was
replaced without removing the crankshaft from the engine.
These included the oil pump rear cover, the front timing gear
cover, and the oil pan boss where the dip stick is inserted.
Care was taken to insure the front pulley insertion into the
timing gear cover did not ruin the new seal. The repair was
Preliminary work included removing the flywheel, oil
pump, front cover, and the front pulley. The crankshaft
was then loosened and lifted with a crane. Care was taken
to insure that the crankshaft was in the correct location to
avoid exposing the lower piston ring as the crankshaft was
lifted.
Rear oil pump cover - a potential source of leaks
completed by running wire and tying off all the appropriate
nuts and reinstalling the oil pump and pan.
The seminar took about 2 ½ hours which according to
Gary, was too long. Maybe so, however the content was
excellent with much of the information useful for oil leaks on
any flathead V-8 engine. The 10 or so attendees were well
rewarded. Many thanks to Tom McCutchen for the use of
his shop, David Olmer for the use of his engine, and to Gary
Duff for his knowledge and expertise.
Prior to surgery with oil pump and timing cover removed
Gary explained the difference between the three main
bearings and how to determine which one goes where. A
#4287 Best Gasket rear main seal kit was cut and trimmed
to fit. Another product, Wurth SesBesto Brake and Parts
Cleaner, was used to thoroughly clean and dry all surfaces
to receive seals and gaskets. Black Silicon was also used
in very small quantities for sealing potential leak areas. The
crankshaft was then pushed back down into the bearing

Other potential oil leaks were also noted and repaired.

No matter the motorcar brand or year some things hold true when searching for that dream car.....
I wanted a new VW Beetle from back when I saw the spy photos about three years before the public unveiling. I bought all the swag before
they hit the showrooms (my Beetle tee shirt wore out so I don't have that to show, and I think Riley chewed the magnet up, but I still have my
watch) and I cried every time I saw the commercial on TV. While people remember where they were when Kennedy was shot, I remember
where I was when I saw my first new Beetle on the road. I screamed out loud and cried again because it more than I could've hoped for.
When my coworker bought one (in a dull nasty gray, I mean seriously, why?!) I wouldn't get in it as I knew they would be out with the
convertible in three years and I was saving and waiting......
Well, in 1998 Jon, my husband and I bought a house in Ballard, and I wound up pregnant and Jon said there was no way he was dealing with
a car seat in the back, so there went the dream and here came the SUV. (later sold and traded down for the Impala).
Flash forward to 2007 and I'm done with the Impala and ready for MY car. Off to research and dealerships. I hit the VW dealership, hopped
into the Bug and went "Oh crap". It was all wrong. It felt wrong, it smelled wrong, it wasn't me.
I sat in the VW GTI and nearly passed out. It was me fully. The car and I grokked one another and when the dealer asked if I wanted to go for
a drive, I said "No".
I then continued to test drive about 30 other cars (remember our ride in the MINI?) and decided to not purchase a VW Thing.
Then two years later, I heard a radio spot about VW's summer sales pricing and thought "I'm going to go get my VW GTI now". I did some
quick Internet searching, spoke with Jon, my dad, Riley and Gary and took off with Riley in the Impala to Covington as they had a used one in
the Fahrenheit orange color (one of only four in the nation that was up for resale).
I traded the car in, grabbed the key to leave when Riley asked "Mom, aren't you going to drive it first?" The sales guy said something to the
effect of "Honey, she's already done that". I replied that I hadn't. Yes, I bought my car without having ever driven the GTI model at all. Didn't
matter.
She was me and I am her. We are a matched pair. I've never regretting buying her and I still giggle when I punch the gas and we get up to
speed. I love to corner her in a tight turn and the way she hangs onto the road.
I'd still love my 1969 Beetle, my 1970 VW Square-back, a 1971 VW Thing, the 2013 (BIG if on that one) VW minibus, a Tesla Roadster and
the Tesla Model S, and finally a 2011 SRT8 Challenger. (I need to start playing the lottery again.)
