We have some wonderful concourse winning cars in our membership, although the majority of our members cars are very nice drivers and daily drivers. We take trips around Idaho and the surrounding Intermountain West, have an annual parts swapmeet, Christmas Party, Annual Elections Dinner, Gimmick Rallies, participate in the various car shows, Funfests, Annual Tour, winery tours, and much, much more!

Well, the colors weren't quite in full bloom, but it was a great day for a drive to Lowman.  Blue skies and sunshine caught us before we got to the SouthFork Lodge in Lowman.   12 cars made the drive, and we had a great time!   By the way....If you haven't been there, drive up for a meal sometime, and get a tour of the rooms!  Great place for a getaway.

Hi Folks,  I decide to take on the task of setting the valve clearances on my '68 Jag this week. In the hopes that this might help others facing the same project I thought I would describe the process as it applies to my '68 4.2 L XK engine.
