Post subject:  Need a New Home for SSRN archives

I need to make some room in the basement. I have 8-9 cartons of papers I accumulated while publishing the Slant Six Racing News. There are the master copies of each issue, many extra copies, unused photographs, correspondence, etc. Lots of interesting trivia for a serious slant 6 fan. I hate to throw this stuff away but I rarely refer to it any more. I am not getting any younger and need to simplify my life. Would love to transfer it to someone younger who has more room. Would anybody be interesed? I would probably be able to deliver it. If I die while it's still here Marty will toss it all out for sure.

Hey Seymour,

Lets see if someone else steps up and reallly wants this "treasure". It is something that I would love to look through and enjoy, but I'm not sure that I want to store 9 more boxes of stuff either. I will be trying very soon to clear out some stuff from my basement too. But if it comes down to throwing it out, I will take it and care for it.

I would also be willing. We'll discuss this at the banquet. Seymour, if you decide to come, let's talk prior to that and you might bring them along.

Cheers,

Lou

I doubt they would know what to make of it. Maybe a copy of each issue would be good for them to have...

I don't think they would be nearly as good a choice as any one of us. If they would take them how could we access them , search them...etc. Copies to them would be Ok if they even want them. can you say "Fiat" :D

Rob or Lou would be good stewards. I don't plan to go to the party but maybe we can meet up later in the year. Thanks to taking an interest.

Sounds good. Hagerstown would be a good transfer point. Hopefully Rob will get some pile of parts bolted together and be able to make that one... :P Hopefully I won't blow mine up before then!

I'm trying,... I'm trying...

I would enjoy having the archives and sharing the information with whomever had an interest. (I'm a Geek like that too :shock: )

I'm very well versed at storing and moving boxes... :lol:
