From the Vice President

Published on 3/1/2017

First, I would like to thank all the Members who attended  the LA Classic Auto Show,  and especially those who  exhibited their Healeys. The  commitment to display  involved quite a bit, since the  cars had to be delivered to the Convention Center  on Thursday and retrieved on Sunday. That required  at least two trips to downtown LA (never a pleasant  adventure), navigating the rather complicated  loading dock assignment, and having their cars in top  condition.

 

Most of those exhibiting spent many additional  hours in the booth, conversing with the hundreds of  visitors who took interest in their cars. Their names  are mentioned later in the newsletter. Thanks again,  without you we could not have had such an  impressive display.

 

In addition to those Members displaying, we had  dozens of Club Members who visited during the  show and a crowd of over forty at our El Cholo lunch  on Saturday. A great showing for the Club and a few  new members generated. The Show will be held  again next year, this time in March, and we are  already on the tentative list to display.

 

Looks like the weather may finally be turning a bit  drier, so it’s time to get out for some driving. You  will see in this issue we have a lot planned for Spring,  with two events each in March and April. I want to  especially urge you to come out the British Invasion  in Dana Point, even if you don’t display your car.

 

The Club will have a hospitality area near the car  show and there will be lots to do in and around the  harbor, including a great Chili Cook Off for lunch on  Saturday. The dinner, and of course the overnight  option, are open to anyone, see the flyer in this issue.

 

See you soon in your Healey!
