The Triumph Spitfire is a small British two- seat sports car, introduced at the London Motor Show in 1962. In 1973 in the United States and Canada, and 1975 in the rest of the world, the 1500 engine was used to make the Spitfire 1500. Further improvements to the suspension followed with the espite the reluctance of some to attend 1500 included longer swing axles and a lowered last months’ picnic, due to the uncertain spring mounting point for more negative camber and weather, everyone had a great time. a wider rear track.

In June, a suggestion was made that all fu- ture events in our consolidated calendar, include their address and start and end times.

Trends are easy to spot and they usually have a lot to do with the age of the collector.

I also had the pleasure this year of meeting Ruth’s son William and his wife Nancy. As the residents, family members, and staff en- joyed our antique vehicles, they were asked to select their favorite cars, and the three cars that received the most votes were presented with nice gift baskets as a prize. The themed baskets, which were created by Ms. Andalibi, con- tained various products based on the theme of the basket, such as BBQ party, movie night, and more.

Below, please find the points listing for the “top 50” for this year to date. It includes meeting attend- ance points through August 12th, as well as events points, including national events that have been reported to me. It also includes committee chairman points, for the committees published in the Road Map, except for those where an actual driving event is planned (spring fling, fall foliage, mystery tour, etc.). Points for these events will be tabulated when the actual event occurs.
As you know, the new points system provides for double points whenever a monetary donation is re- ceived. It is important for the committee chair of any such event note on the attendance sheet if monies are received so that participation points can be properly awarded.
In the case of national events, it is the individuals responsibility to notify the points chairman of their participation.
Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any concerns or wish to have me include recognition for events you attended that were not otherwise accounted for.
Respectfully submitted, Vince DeLisi [email protected]
