Quite a Monte thread on the Historic forum at specialstage.com:

Now Satch, an event that I think is right up your (and Russ') alley is the
historic Winter Challenge (regularity):

(we really need to have a car stashed away in Europe)

And before the start, you could go to the Historic Motorsport Show:

If you are in Seattle March 5/6 we will have my Mk II Cortina out at the Doo

I would bring it to Thunderbird but you must remember this is a car fitted
