    IN TUNE - by Jim Youngs
    National Kit Car Club We're just back from the Carlisle show and can happily report that the show was more robust than we expected in light of our economy. There were several kit manufactuers conspicuous by their absence, but the crowds came out thanks to good weather and it looked like many companies were doing business. We'll have complete coverage in our August issue that we're working on right now along with coverage of the Knott's show as well. That issue of KCB will be out toward the end of June.

    One rumor floating around the shows was that Shell Valley had been shut down. The truth is that the company was purchased by Travis Roth who plans to keep things pretty much as they were and offer the same products -- Cobra replica, Cheetah replica, Coupe replica, hot rods, Jaguar replica. He also plans to continue development of a '32 Ford Coupe hot rod that was started by the previous owners. The company also has a big Jeep replacement body business that will continue. We'll give you more details as we learn them.

    The next big event for us will be the London Cobra Show (London, Ohio) June 26-28. We alwasy look forward to this massive display of snakes and the laid-back atmosphere surrounding the activities on tap. Our favorite activity is the burn-outs down Main Street, done to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and other favorite charities of the organizers, Ohio Cobra Club.

    You might notice that we've added a new Articles page. This is a page you'll want to visit often as we continue to post some past stories from the magazine. We also plan to use this section to add more photos and commentary that we don't have room for in the pages of the magazine. So, stay tuned and visit the Articles page frequently.
