Mike, where are you going to be staying in Memphis?  I'm going to try tomorrow to get reservations at the Heartbreak Hotel since it's right across the street from Graceland.  Maybe we can have dinner one of the nights.

I liked the "Spinout" movie because of the Cobra! I had trouble finding it on CD, tho. My friend Jack had it on a cassette somehow.  I liked "Clambake" where he drove a '59 red Corvette Stingray racer.  He played a race car driver again later in the film "Speedway".  Lots of cars in that film!

This is from Elvis Presley News:

"When his mother eyed his classic car collection of four Cadillacs, two Limousines, a Messerschmitt sports car and Harley Davidson motorbike she said, "Elvis has always been crazy about Cadillacs. Why, I believe he was only nine or ten years old when he learned to drive. In fact, we learned together.""

I am so glad to learn out this.  I love Graceland (I truck through Memphis often) and a car show there is a great idea!  Are they allowing bike to enter.  I can bring both if it's allowed in the rules!

Elvis was a major gear head and loves his vehicles! Check out Elvis with one of the early Shelby Corbras in a 1966 movie "Spinout"  http://southeastwheelsevents.com/video/trailer-for-the-movie-spinout

1958 Porsche 356 Speedster

The 1958 Porsche 356 Speedster marks the swan song of one of Porsche’s most iconic and minimalist models. Originally introduced in 1954 at the urging of U.S. importer Max Hoffman, the Speedster was designed to be a low cost, lightweight, stripped-down entry sports car that could double as a weekend racer, especially for the California sports car scene. With its low windshield,…

1948 Rover P3 Saloon

The 1948 Rover P3 Saloon marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of British motoring. Introduced in the immediate aftermath of World War II, the P3 was a bridge between prewar craftsmanship and the modern engineering ethos that would come to define Rover’s future.

The Volunteer Gap: Thoughts on Why Car Clubs Are Struggling to Fill Leadership Roles, and What to Do About It

With car shows, cruise-ins, tours, parades and varied events across the country, car clubs continue to bring enthusiasts together for camaraderie, preservation, and celebration of automotive history. But behind the scenes, many of these clubs are hitting a serious speed bump: no one wants to take the wheel. Volunteer-run clubs are facing an increasingly common…
