Mark was cleaning up a couple of running boards for a 1925 touring car.  Using Larry's hammers and anvil, the running boards straightened out nicely.  Bob generously filled in excess holes and welded a crack.

The Carpenter's, both Paul and Ken, brought their cars for adjustments and inspection.  Among the repairs were tightening Ken's fan belt on his 1916 speedster.

It was a very busy and productive day.  Our thanks to Larry and Lorna for hosting the event at their well-equipped garage and to the other senior Tin Lizzie members for providing their expert advice.  The Albuquerque chapter of the MTFCA is growing!
