Filming Crimson and Clover
Several of our members have been involved in the filming of this movie.
These are not particularly good pictures. They are from 2 different
shoots, first on a very rainy Sunday
AM at the drive in in Newberg. A couple of them were taken through a rainy
window from inside my car. Because of
the weather these were just background scenes of cars coming and going
at the drive in. The young folks are
actors. The night time pictures were
street scenes taken about mid-night to
2 AM in "downtown" St Paul. I took the
smaller picture while we were setting
up, and forgot to take any when the
action began. We had a few good drag
races before we finished.
There are 2 teasers on You Tube for
those interested. Look for it, Crimson
and Clover (movie title) Teaser # 1 and
Teaser # 2

Member Profile: John Stanton
Golly, where do I begin to talk about this terrific individual? Ok, how about the basics first?
John is a married guy, married his love Connie December 16, 1967. John retired from ODOT as manager of the Woodburn Port Of Entry. That is the big truck scale just north of Woodburn on I-5, and Connie was an insurance agent and
office manager for Ed Clark Insurance in
Salem.
John and Connie have 2 wonderful daughters. One lives in Tigard and the other
one in Federal Way, Washington. They
have graced the family with three grand
kids. A boy age 5, a girl age 7, in Tigard
and a girl age 14 in WA. “ All great kids.
My grandson loves cars. He likes to go
out in my shop and "drive" the cars. At
Christmas, they all come to our house and
I set up a train around the tree. The little
kids like to drive pedal cars around on the
driveway when the weather permits. We
all do Easter here, too. I find eggs all
year. I can't remember where I (Easter
Bunny) hid them all”.
I asked John to “Tell us a little about yourself”, and this was John’s reply:
“I was born in Spokane over 70 years ago. I lived in Seattle and Everett in my early childhood. Moved back to Spokane
when I was seven, graduated from the University of Idaho in 1968. It took me 6 years to get a 4 year degree but I was
interrupted when I joined the United States Marine Corp Reserve. After active duty, I returned to college where I met
Connie. We moved to Salem in 1968 when I got a job teaching woodworking at Silverton High School. Dave LeCompte was
a student there. I also taught classes for Chemeketa College. I did a couple of other things then went to work for the
State of Oregon. I started with Department of Administrative Services then to ODOT. I was a Weigh master and enforced laws and administrative rules regulating the trucking industry. Part of the job was also to perform truck safety
inspections. I also taught state law classes at Portland Community College, Western Oregon University and Oregon Police
Standards and Training through my job with ODOT. Eventually became the manager of the enforcement district north of
Salem and west of Mt. Hood. Even as a little kid, I loved cars. I always wanted cars and a play gas station for Christmas. I also wanted Lionel train stuff. My friend, Ricky, and I used to nail roller skates on to 2X4's and make scooters. We put wheels on planks and made plywood bodies. We called them "bugs". Once we made an airplane and drug it up
onto the roof of a construction shack. We threw it off to see if it would fly before we rode it. Good thing because it
smashed into little bits. I participated in the soap box derby back in the 50's. Bought my first car in 1959 when I was
15. It was a 1927 Ford Model T roadster with a 1950 Merc flathead engine. Couldn't (was not supposed to) drive it.....no
license. Learned a lot from it. My dad was a great mechanic so taught me a lot. I had lots of cars in the 60's. Wish I
had them now. (Well, some of them)”
I can add that John is a collector of Lionel model trains and old license plates. I once got a call from a guy trying to locate a particular plate, and I knew right where to direct him!. His other interests and affiliations are Goodguys, NSRA,
and the National Studebaker Driver's Club. “Of course, my main hobby is street rods. I pretty much do all my own
work. I have painted cars since I was 15 when I painted my brother's 1949 Chevy convertible. I also do all my own en-
gine, chassis, body, and fabrication work. I have even done most of my upholstery”.
John is a founding father of Willamette Valley Street Rods. “ I started hanging out with Tony Mills, in about 1968. Then
I met Dale Wheeler, Gary Farrier, Jerry Keppinger, John Woods, Boyd Jensen, and Bill Sanders, all hot rod guys. These
guys, myself, and about a dozen more formed the club. We had meetings and took trips together. Late in 1970, we made
it official and started paying dues and had officers. Dale was out first President. Our first roster was in 1971” John has
been in the club “Over 40 years total, but took time off for several years during the 80's and early 90's. Still had rods
then, but was not active in the club. I totally love this club! I have wonderful friendships that have come from it. Some
of which have endured for over 40 years. Our members are the best people in the world!”
So what does John have in his garage you may ask….well, hold on, I’m gonna tell ya!
Street Rods: 1929 Ford Tudor sedan project car, 1931 Ford coupe Hiboy, 1932 Ford 5 window Hiboy, 1934 Ford 3 window coupe, 1940 Ford Deluxe coupe. Other cars: 1949 Studebaker Starlight coupe, 1951 Studebaker Starlight coupe,
1962 Studebaker GT Hawk, 1955 Chevy BelAir Tudor post, 1964 Ford Falcon hardtop, 1987 Corvette (Connie's car). I
can tell you one thing, John is a really good guy. I have been searching all over for an inside door handle to my Studebaker pick-up.
On my birthday, John came up to me at the meeting and handed me the handle. “Happy Birthday” he said. He could not
have made me happier!
Of course I ask all our members who fill out a profile about their most embarrassing moment. Not missing a beat John’s
answer “ Being born…….I was naked and afraid!”
Just a note from this Member-at-Large. I love this guy!! I am grateful for his service to our country, thankful for his
efforts in the club, and most of all happy he is my friend. I enjoy his tremendous sense of humor.
Dayle Langley, Member-at-Large, WVSR

Rollin’ Oldies v Willamette Valley Street Rods
WVSR-Rollin Oldies Volley Ball night Saturday night March 8th..
It was such a fun evening! We had a great turnout and everyone enjoyed playing so much. The Rollin Oldies are so nice
and made us feel so welcome. We played at the Boys & Girls Club in Lebanon (We played 6 games and won 5!).
Pam Foster Photos
About 15 club members gathered for breakfast at the Home Buffet followed by a field trip to Key Motors Wrecking yard
at Liberal just North of Molalla. We were able to score a new top from a 61 Ford S/W for the A project while there. If
you need parts, it's a good place to look for them.
