2005 LOS ANGELES BRITISH MEET CANCELED

Due to increases in park fees and required additional services,
added to a substantial increase in insurance premiums the Los
Angeles British Car Meet is no longer able to continue at the
Woodley Park venue.

The meet and tour scheduled for:
SATURDAY, AUGUST 27th, and
SUNDAY, AUGUST 28th
have been canceled.

As for the LA meet, we will be looking for a more hospitable
town, hotel or tourist venue to team up with what we do. We
are also are trying to scout out some British, or at least
European, cruise nights and maybe even set up a tour to the
sea like we did last year on the Saturday before the meet.

Please let me know about any SoCal automotive activities
that include British cars - I will get them out to this group.

Thank you for your understanding,

Rick Feibusch
meet coordinator

Rick.

My admiration for your constant devotion to the cause. I really miss
our Woodley Park (L.A. Valley) annual meets.
What is the LA Shelby Cobra group, or Chrysler group doing? Wouldn't be
so bad to allow the Tiger's,
and Alpines in a corner. The Tigers are accepted for full membership,
and so are kit Cobra's.

Heck, not such a stretch to state that an Alpine is a Tiger Conversion
"In-Progress" for "someday".
(Sorry, 'Piner's, I, my son and my daughter own one), but a local show
is LOCAL!

Steve:
Santa Monica priced us out in 1995 (same BS as LA) and the Museum of Flying
and the DC3 restaurant went out of business about two years ago - We are
already looking for a new venue (Agoura, Burbank, Culver City, El Segundo,
etc - as in NOT LA) for the spring.

We are in a Catch 22, Too big to be a "club" meet and too small (only 300
cars) and short of sponsors to afford the freight that the bigger clubs
with many national sponsors, wax companies and actual manufacturers support
- We have Moss, Victoria British and Sunbeam Specialties and that's
it..............

I'm doing my best ............. there seems to be more regulations and fees
each year.

Anyone who is interested in knowing about California British Car Activities
can contact me with their email address (and tell me if you are in the
north or south end of the state) to be part of the British Car Network.
This is completely non-commercial and exclusive mailing list to promote the
British car hobby in California. Even if I can't continue to do events, you
all will know about what is going on around the state. It is the best I can
do right now.
