PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Okay, you just received your May 2006 Jersey Late Greats Newsletter. May already? That came quick. If you haven’t done so already, it’s time to pull that Chevy out of the garage, dust her off, check the oil, antifreeze, and brakes, and take the ol’ Gal for a ride!

That’s just what a group of us did last Sunday. It turns out one of our members just added another Late Great to his already outstanding collection of 64’s. The newly acquired vehicle happens to be a 64 elCamino, and fits right in with the 64 SS Nova and 64 Impala SS. Yes … you guessed it Jim Brussel finally found the elCamino he was looking for.

Well of course this is certainly cause for calibration! So a group of Jersey Late Guys loaded up the cargo beds of their elCamino’s with a few cases of Corona (Jim & Claudia’s favorite) and headed over to Jim’s place, unannounced, to welcome Jim’s new clCamino to the fleet. What a great day. Jim was really surprised!!! Perfect weather, great cars (actually trucks) a few cold ones, and a few friends getting together to check out Jim’s new ride. Does it get any better that this? I don’t think so.

The group then headed over to the Bordentown Community Center to join the rest of the members for the monthly meeting. We had some really good discussion regarding the possible expansion of the club to include up to 1972 Chevrolets. After everyone had their say, the members present agreed that it is time to put it to a vote. Mark your calendars!!! The decision to expand the club to include 1958 to 1972 Chevrolets will be voted upon at the May meeting.

We also spent some time locking in our summer meeting dates and the Drive In Cruise for this summer. Please check the Club Calendar in this month’s newsletter for the dates. Lou DiPietro and Diane have worked out the details for the Delsea Drive In cruise in Vineland New Jersey. Check out the information later in this newsletter. If you have questions, need additional information, or want to attend, please call Lou DiPietro ( ) for all the details.

Enjoy the Ride,
