If you have any other photos you want on the web page to represent yourself or your vehicle, email them to the webmaster and they will be posted.

New Business

1. President sent around an Email from the VPCCC concerning the bill in the general assembly now allowing the storage of restoration vehicles on private property as long as they are out of public view and covered. Call your state representative to get support as there is a lot of opposition to this bill. If it does not pass you will not be allowed to store non operative vehicles at your home. This is state bill 204.

2. Amendment to By-laws motion brought up for review concerning changing it to read that members that have not come to 6 consecutive meetings should be removed form the club rolls. It was emphasized that this is not a move to kick people out of the club; rather it is to remove names of people no longer in the area or that no longer wish to be a member of the club. This in article 4 of the by laws.

2. Ike presented photos that Shek has taken of past events that are available for the taking if you see some of you or your car.

3. Tom Norris brought up the 6 March 04 Khedive Temple swap meet and kickoff event for the spring show season. Open to public at 8am

4. Howard brought in some photos of the Blue Angels flying over Kitty Hawk. His grandson is with the team and made the photos available. Please take one.

5. Ian Frey brought up about a new spark plug wire called Nology wires that are a real high performance part. These are rather expensive but depending on how much extra performance you want may be worth the price. See him for more information.

6. Shek brought up the engine stand issue again, most of these new stands are not good quality and not a good fit, and they require some modifications to be used properly. Be careful about what you’re buying, do you homework
