I remember when I used to see people that would attend the beaches Wednesday night Gatherings at Portland International Raceway.
Was the the Sons of the Beaches?

I went to the Portland Roadster Show as an impressionable youth, and saw My Blue Heaven floating on a cloud of angel hair. It changed my life.

The only thing to compare was seeing Ron Countrney's '51 Ford''s tail lights reflected off the rainy, nighttime streets of McMinnville.

I think it's still my favorite sectioned Ford.. I'd like to see a 9/10-scale clone based on a VW Type III notchback. The rooflines are very similar, all you'd lose is the front and rear trunk. It even has air scoops at the root of the fins.
