Seven members of the Delaware Valley Jaguar Club drove 500 miles over rural roads in PA, NJ, DE and MD on September 20 – 22 to raise money “for the children” served by the Burn Centers of Shriners Hospitals for Children. Over $41,000 was raised in this year’s America’s British Reliability Run by thirty-three teams driving British cars, most forty or more years old! The Prince of Darkness did not visit any of our members’ cars. Three others teams had issues during the run. All were back on the road following field surgery by Eugene Toner riding with Bill Murphy who pulled the trailer with a spare car, tools and parts. Three of our club members were instrumental in planning this successful event: Dave Hutchison, Alan Anspaugh and Bob DeLucia.
