  • Zum Lesen Als
    Liebe GFG´ler ! In Kürze schreiben wir das Jahr 2014 und hoffen es begleitet uns mit Gesundheit, Glück und Zufriedenheit. Eine Bilanz zumindest aus clubinterner Sicht der GFG können wir heute schon für das Jahr 2013 treffen. Neben den traditionell einmal monatlich stattfindenden Stammtischabend im Gasthaus „Zum Lamm“ in Dingolfing wurden auch 2013 wieder viele Oldtimerveranstaltungen von den Clubmitgliedern einzeln oder gemeinsam mit anderen angesteuert. Als erstes Ziel für die Clubkameraden und Kameradinnen war bei vielen der Besuch der Retro Classic in Stuttgart angesagt, welcher mittlerweile schon zu einer festen Größe im Jahreslauf geworden ist. Am 21. Juni fuhr man mit den Oldtimern zum GFG- Stammtischabend nach Puchhausen zu unserem Clubmitglied Gerhard Brandl, wo wir es uns im Biergarten gut gingen ließen .Beim Clubvorstand Jürgen Kraxenberger fand am 19. Juli am Fahrzeug- Museum der Stammtischabend statt, einen Monat später bei Konrad Auwärter in seinem Museum in Landau. Vom 6. bis 8. September war das mittlerweile bereits zum zwölften Mal stattfindende Oldtimer-Klassikertreffen in Rothenwörth angesagt, wie immer bestens organisiert von den beiden Routiniers Peter Rahm und Hans Thanner. Eine Woche später richtete Thomas Schneider und Roland Heitzer das GLAS-Club Herbsttreffen in Verbindung mit der 3. Hofmark Oldtimer-Rallye im Bayerischen Wald vom 13. bis 15. September aus. Endpunkt dieser schönen Veranstaltung war der Besuch des Kraxenberger Fahrzeug-Museums in Unterhollerau und / oder des Industriemuseums der Stadt Dingolfing. Ein Highlight 2013 war die von Hermine Neef und Helmut Riemer bereits zum zehnten Mal organisiertes „Abgoggerln“. Diesmal führte die Reise ins Berchtesgadener Land zum Roßfeld-Bergrennen. Drei GFG-Mitglieder beteiligten sich mit ihren Oldtimern beim Bergrennen.

    Heilix Blechle. Das Mobile journal mautfrei. #26 2020 ISSN 2199-7705 So schön haben Sie noch nie den Kopf freibekommen Editorial Liebe Leserin, lieber Leser, mit Schwung starten wir ins neue Jahrzehnt, das für die Automobilbranche nicht unwe- sentlich in die Geschichte eingehen wird. Viele Fahrzeughersteller setzen auf Elektro- und oder Hybridantriebe. Einige wenige lassen auch sogenannte alternative und klimaneu- trale Kraftstoffe in der Entwicklung der neuen Mobilität zu. Die Sprache ist von Wasser- stoff-Kombinationen, die den reinen Wasserstoff handlebar machen. Im aktuellen Heft legen wir einen Fokus auf ein Fahrzeug, das wald- und wiesenfest ist und über einen Plug-in-Hybrid-Antriebssystem verfügt. Das bedeutet, dieses SUV, sprich sport utility vehicle wie es neudeutsch heißt, wird entweder durch einen Elektromotor und/oder einen Verbrennungsmotor angetrieben.Die Hoffnung, dass in Oberschwaben ein wenig Schnee für einen echten Auto-Wintertest zu finden ist, wurde leider nicht erfüllt. Nichtsdestotrotz konnte der neue BMW X5xdrive45e zeigen was er drauf hat. Nach diesem Ausflug in die Gegenwart haben wir im aktuellen Heilix Blechle den Oldies Jetzt richtig viel Platz eingeräumt. Im Vorfeld der weltweit größten Messe für Fahrkultur, der Retro Classics in Stuttgart, stellen wir verschiedene Aussteller vor. vorbestellen In der neuen Rubrik Herzblut präsentieren wir dieses Mal ein in Zuffenhausen ausge- liefertes Auto, das im Laufe seines Lebens die ganze Welt gesehen hat und von seinem Das neue T-Roc Cabriolet.* Mehr als ein Cabrio. jetzigen Besitzer in einen jugendlichen Zustand versetzt wurde.Überdies trafen wir uns auf ein Benzingespräch mit Brauereibesitzer Franz Luitpold Egerer, um mehr über eine fast vergessene deutsche Automarke zu erfahren.

    bereits in wenigen Tagen verabschieden wir uns vom Jahr 2019 und das neue Jahr 2020 beginnt. Am Ende des alten Jahres ist für mich immer die Zeit allgemein Rückschau zu halten, auch was das Clubgeschehen betrifft und bei allen Mitgliedern für Ihr Engagement Danke zu sagen aber natürlich auch schon eine Vorschau auf das kommende Jahr zu halten. An dieser Stelle möchte ich mich bei allen bedanken, die sich wieder in bester Art und Weise eingebracht haben. Sei es, weil wir dort einen unserer monatlich Stammtischabende verbringen durften, wie bei Gerhard Brandl und Rosi Maier in Puchhausen, bei Gerhard und Irmgard Hackl in Landau, bei unserem Ehrenmitglied Konrad Auwärter im Automobil-Park Auwärter in Pilsting sowie bei Michael und Michaela Haslbeck in Frichlkofen. Dank sagen möchte des Weiteren Carsten Weidlich und seiner Gattin in Deutldorf bei Hohenkammer, wo am 26. Mai das „Angläsern“ stattfand, Hans Thanner, Torsten Thanner und Peter Rahm für das wie immer bestens organisierte Oldtimer- und Klassikertreffen in Rothenwörth, ein Highlight wie jedes Jahr mit Rekordbeteiligung war für die Goggofraktion in der GFG das „Abgoggerln“ mit 26 Fahrzeugen nach Ingolstadt, wie immer toll gemacht und bestens vorbereitet von Hermine Neef und Helmut Riemer. Vortrefflich organisierte wie jedes Jahr, bei Kaiserwetter Xaver Erber mit Familie das Oldtimertreffen im Markt Pilsting anlässlich des verkaufsoffenen Sonntages am 13. Oktober. Insbesondere möchte ich unserem Webmaster Fritz Baron ein großes Danke sagen für die Betreuung der Website und die jährliche Erstellung des GFG- Stammtischjournals. Ohne ihn könnten wir diese Zeilen hier gar nicht lesen. Danke an unsere beiden „Schatzmeister“ Rosi Füchsl und Manfred Zitzelsberger.
