The Colorado ClassicistThe Colorado Winter 2017-18 Volume 64 Issue 4 Published by the Colorado Region Classic Car Club of America Packard’s advertising in 1931 hit a high point in terms of art and beauty. It has probably never been excelled, but wheth- er or not the ads sold any more cars is debatable. This was published in the April 11, 1931 Saturday Evening Post.

Colorado Region Classic Car Club of America 3 EDITORIAL COMMENTS Message from the DIRECTOR Joe Pirrone appy New Year to all of our members!! I hope that every- one had a safe, pleasant and healthy holiday season. At the Htime of this writing we continue to experience unseason- ably warm and dry weather with no sign of winter in the near term forecast. Since my last Director’s message, the club has hosted our annual Membership Meeting as well as our Christmas Party, both of which have benefited from the mild weather conditions. These are always great events as we get to see old friends and members who we do not see as often as we would like to. Our plans called for trying new venues for both these events so as to keep things interesting. Although we were not successful in moving the annual mem- bership meeting we were able to have the Christmas Party at the newly constructed and recently opened facilities of the Columbine Country Club. Thanks to Lonnie Fallin and Tom Kostelecky for making the arrangements for these events. Feedback on what you liked and what needs to be improved is always welcome including suggestions on where future events should be held. Please contact me or any of the other board members with your ideas. At our January 11, 2018 board meeting, at which everyone is welcome to attend, we will be planning our activities for the upcoming year. As discussed at both the annual Membership Meeting and Christmas Party we are in the early planning stages for hosting a Grand Classic, probably in 2019, and a hub and spoke tour over a long weekend. We are discussing selecting a host hotel, where we would start and finish each day’s activities, with everyone motoring in for events on Fri- day night, Saturday and Sunday morning. These outings would be in addition to our clubs perennial favorites. Lastly, due to limitations in the previous issue of the Classicist, in this issue is a complete accounting of the club’s Mini CARavan to Telluride in late September of last year. While the weather was at best uncooperative, our thanks go out to Tony Ficco and Tom Kostelecky for all of their efforts in planning and organizing the tour. I hope to see as many of you as possible during the coming year and always welcome your ideas on how we can make the club more enjoyable for all members. Joe Pirrone, Director 4 The Colorado Classicist EDITORIAL COMMENTS Message from the EDITOR Tom Goyne t the Annual Meeting, Terry Johnson, a member of the region since the seventies and a Board member for many Ayears, announced that he was retiring. Not becoming inactive, mind you, just retiring. Over the years, he has contributed hugely to the club in more ways than I can count, and has become my friend and the friend of everyone who meets him. It is his an- nual April Garage Tour, the most attended meet of the year, that he is known for. He and Kay attended the Christmas party and were presented with a nice plaque commemorating his many years of service. Well deserved! At the very same Christmas party, two members stepped up to take Terry’s place on the Board, and both were immediately accepted by all in attendance. Lou Ficco will be rejoining as a Board Member, and Tim Gilmartin will join as well. We welcome their friendly faces and fine talents. Another change announced at the Annual Meeting was that Frank Keller said he could no longer act as Secretary of the region. Lon- nie Fallin volunteered to act as Secretary in the future and his offer was gladly accepted. I received in the mail, somewhat unexpectedly, a nice document saying that the Colorado Classicist had won one of Old Cars Weekly’s Golden Quill Awards. It was presented “in recognition of outstanding efforts in the communication field of the old car hobby.” Very nice. Thank you Angelo Van Bogart! On a personal note...I bought and sold two Classics recently. Because the ‘34 Packard is up and running, I decided to sell the ‘41 Lincoln Continental. Afterwards, though, that empty garage space haunted me so I bought myself a Christmas present, a 1923 Stutz roadster. It runs and drives, sort of, so you will probably see me in it this coming summer. Let me echo Joe’s invitation for you to attend the January 11th Board meeting where we will plan the year’s activities. It is always a productive and exciting meeting where lots of ideas are kicked around, and the year’s events settled on. Don’t miss it! And finally, do have a really happy New Year driving and showing that Classic every chance you get.
