Californians Invited
I just got this in my e-mail from the E-Groups forum. Perhaps some of you can make it.
--------------------------------I'm Ken Montgomery, President of the Northern California DeLorean Motor Club, plus I'm the owner of a 1995 Subaru SVX. I'd like to invite all SVX owners and enthusiasts to our 2001 DeLorean/Bricklin West Coast Celebration, on September 20 - 23, San Ramon, California. As you may know, The SVX and the DeLorean were designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and the cars share many styling cues, from the wedge shape, toolbooth windows, and many interior design elements, not to mention their level of rarity. As a lover of both cars I would love to be able to have a display of SVX's to show to the public, and many of us have talked about having a West Coast meet for some time. This event could act as a springboard for more SVX events. The Saturday show itself is free and open to the public. Here's a rundown of all of the events: The Northern California DeLorean Motor Club, Bricklin International, and the California Bricklin Owners are proud to announce a new fall DeLorean/Bricklin Car Show in the San Francisco Bay Area. Come join DeLorean and Bricklin owners from all over the West for 3 plus days of fun and great cars. See our website at http://www.ncdmc.org for more information, Downloadable Registration Forms, On-Line Registration and Updated Information Our home base for the show is the San Ramon Marriott. San Ramon, California is approximately 25 miles east of the city of Oakland in the San Francisco Bay Area. The San Ramon Valley has long been considered one of the most desirable areas in the Bay Area because of its scenic beauty, good climate, suburban charm, and proximity to the Bay Area's major business centers. Thursday night kicks off our weekend with a welcome reception and an opportunity to re-acquaint yourself with old friends and make new ones. We plan to keep a hospitality room available throughout the event. This will give owners a place to meet at any time they wish. Friday morning we will caravan from the hotel to Livermore Valley for a tour of the Wente Vineyards Winery and to have lunch. Our driving route will take us through the backroads and scenic locations of the area. Our Friday night banquet is at the prestigious Blackhawk Auto Museum, an affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution. Admission to the Banquet includes touring the museum and admission to the Smithsonian RMS Titanic Exhibit. Special guests and speakers for the evening are to be announced. Raffles with special prizes will be held each night. Also joining us for Friday is the Mercedes 300sl Gullwing club. This will provide us an opportunity to display a 3 production gullwing cars in front of the Blackhawk Museum. This will be an excellent photo op! Saturday is our car show at the Marriott. We will have several levels of judging. There will also be tech seminars for both cars, a dealers room featuring DeLorean and Bricklin merchandise and collectables, along with displays and more. Saturday night we'll have our awards banquet at the Marriott with trophies for the Show's award-winning entries. There will be raffle prizes for both banquets. On Sunday we caravan to Alameda and place our cars on the dock next to the USS Hornet for a tour and lunch. The USS Hornet was the aircraft carrier that brought home the Apollo 11 astronauts after the first manned landing on the moon. Joining us is Bricklin International and the California Bricklin Owners club. This combined event will familiarize us with the unique qualities of each other's cars and allows us to use our combined numbers to further the quality of the event. This will be a great driving event for people on or close to the West Coast, and the Show, combined with the many interesting opportunities this region of California offers, makes this a worthwhile event for those who fly in from around the country. Rooms are available at the Marriott (925) 867-9200. Make sure to mention the DeLorean/Bricklin Car Show to get the $74 convention rate. Please make your hotel reservations as soon as possible to help us prepare properly for your arrival.
