Hey Guys and Gals I know I've been pretty lax on the updates but I've been pretty busy since the off-season. As most of you know, 5 club couples traveled together to Punta Cana for a much needed vacation. A great time was had by all and it was hard to come back. But we are looking forward to seeing everyone again.
On that note you should have all received an invitation to our next club event. The Boulevard Knights post holiday / Barrett Jackson get together on Saturday January 19th. I hope to see all of you there.
I'm also aware that the forum is down. Unfortunately, that was a product of my PC suffering a meltdown. I hope to get it back up and running soon.

Congratulations this week.....Wow! where do I start?? Well 1st off Congratulations and a huge round of applause goes to....US! The whole Boulevard Knights Classic Car Club, for their unprecedented generosity and show of good will to those less fortunate in this past weekend's Thunder Rally Food Drive at the Eastwood company. 13 Club members attended the event and together we donated an astounding 245 Lbs. of canned food!!! We crushed the competition donating more food than all other car clubs combined!!! and took home the 1st place Golden Can Award. Just another example of why we have the best car club around. Take a bow everyone...you deserve it.
Our good deed did not go unrewarded, however....we scored an unbelievable 12 door prizes worth in excess of $450.00!!
Last but never least Paul & Diane Armstrong took home a People's Choice award and added another trophy to their collection.

Here's what the President and Founder of www.elderlyiron.com had to say about our club web-site. Please check out their service and take advantage of the special offer they have extended to us.
Hi Guys!
Just wanted to let you know that I have spent HOURS and HOURS and HOURS contacting Club after Club after Club in promoting my new website, www.elderlyiron.com. My compliments to your Webmaster/Site designer for an excellent clean, navigable, no-nonsense site. Logo to layout, everything is first class, and NO annoying MIDI music playing "Giddyup 409"!! Most Club sites I have seen (in the hundreds) are either over-done or under-done. You guys are Medium-Rare, just the way I like it! I hope you'll like the way we've done Elderly Iron.com as well. We've placed our rates way low and you'll NEVER find a Matchbox Car or a "Mustang Only Parking Sign" competeting with your ads! It's CARS and PARTS ONLY! OK, trucks and tractors older than 1976 too, because they're all "Elderly Iron".
I'm announcing the opening of www.elderlyiron.com Where Club Event, Swap Meet, and Wanted Ad listings are always FREE!
Because eBay is so expensive and "anything goes", I've dedicated an Auction, Classified and Wanted Ad site for Cars, Trucks, Tractors, Heavy Equipment and Implements 1976 and older ONLY!
"The more you tell, the more you sell!" (TM)
Best regards,
Jeff Bradshaw, President and Founder, Elderly Iron.com
