Thanks
for
the
e-mails
re:
the
steering
column
on my
'64.
You
were
right
on
with
your
advice
and I
was
able
to
repair
it
myself.
Saved
a
bunch
of
money
listening
to
you
and
proud
to
have
done
it
myself!
If I
lived
anywhere
near
NY
I'd
join
your
group!
Thanks
Again!

I've
been
checking
regularly
for
the
photos
from
the
2009
Vanderbilt
Show.
They
are
usually
posted
shortly
after
the
show.
It
was a
great
show,
one I
look
forward
to
participating
in
every
year.
Anxious
to
view
them.
IMHO
it is
the
best
show
of
the
year.

This
may
in
fact
be
the
original
website
of
Long
Island
Vettes.
However
the
webmaster
of
this
site,
Richard
Shields,
is no
longer
a
board
member
of
the
club
and
refuses
to
update,
change
or
modify
the
content
at
the
request
of
the
current
Board
of
Directors.
He
also
refuses
to
allow
the
current
Board
access
to
the
site
to
make
necessary
changes
and
updates.
Therefore
this
site
has
now
become
a
"rogue"
site
and
is no
longer
associated
to
"Long
Island
Vettes".
A
new
OFFICIAL
site
has
been
created
named
www.LongIslandVettes.org
where
all
members
of
the
club
should
now
access
for
OFFICIAL
and
UP TO
DATE
information.
The
Board
of
Directors
of
Long
Island
Vettes
is in
discussions
with
the
host
of
this
rogue
site
to
have
it
shut
down.
Since
Mr.
Shields
has
total
control
of
this
site
I'm
not
certain
this
message
will
remain
here
too
long
since
he
has
the
power
to
delete
anything
at
his
discression.
Again,
the
OFFICIAL
website
of
Long
Island
Vettes
is www.LongIslandVettes.org
Thank
you

To
the
board
It
just
hit
me
that
after
this
snow
storm,
if
the
library
didn't
close,
there
would
have
been
an
election
of
just
a few
people.
This
could
have
been
good
for
one
of
the
nominees,
where
a
possible
10
people
could
have
voted
in a
new
VP.
What
would
happen
next
month
if
some
members
were
stuck
at
work
or
the
train
was
delayed
or
just
can't
make
the
meeting
in
April.
Would
it be
fair?
So it
seems
that
we
are
right
back
to
where
we
started.
A few
members
can
make
a
decision
for
the
whole
membership.
I
feel
all
members
should
have
their
vote
counted
by a
mail-in-ballot.
When
the
opinion
poll
was
counted
there
was a
decision
the
have
an
election.
Lou
said
that
the
board
would
come
up
with
our
first
rule
who
can
be
nominated
(have
to
attend
a
certain
amount
of
meetings
or
amount
of
shows
or
some
kind
of
rule)
and
run
it
passed
the
membership
but
that
didn't
happen.
Also
there
are
no
minutes
posted
and
no
mention
of an
election
on
the
web
site
(until
this
Monday
since
the
library
was
closed
there
will
be
an
election
next
month)
or
the
opinion
poll
results
saying
there
was
even
going
to be
an
election.
Like
I
said
before
it
seems
like
we
are
right
back
to
where
we
started
back
in
November
where
a few
members
make
a
decision
for
the
whole
membership
and
that's
not
what
it
was
intended
to
be.
Since
the
whole
membership
is
not
involved
in an
election
and
the
results
could
vary
depending
on
which
members
make
the
meeting
on
that
certain
day.
I
would
like
to
retract
my
acceptance
for a
nominated
board
position.
I am
glad
to
see
that
the
club
is
having
an
election
but
do
not
agree
with
the
way
it is
handled.
I
would
like
to
wish
John
DiFilippi
and
Ralph
Marigliano
luck
in
the
up
coming
election.

To

One
question
if
there
are
no
elections
this
year
as
you
said
in
your
letter
with
the
official
opinion
poll,
are
you
still
the
Acting
President
and
Acting
Vice
President
for
the
next
year?
Since
neither
Pres.
or VP
are
elected
officials
shouldn't
the
next
in
command
move
up to
take
the
place?
Maybe
Carol
should
move
up to
Pres
and
Rich
Fingerhut
move
up to
VP in
the
chain
in
command?

I
came
across
your
club
as I
was
checking
out
numerous
other
corvette
clubs
recently.
It
was
very
refreshing
reading
about
your
members
as I
hadn't
seen
any
clubs
do a
profile
on
their
members.
I was
one
of
those
kids
growing
up
savoring
the
fact
of
owning
a
corvette
one
day
from
which
my
dream
was
fullfilled
back
in
2002
when
I
purchased
a
1973
L-48
automatic
Elkhart
Green
from
the
original
owner.
Your
clubs
profiles
were
a
breath
of
fresh
air
to
share
with
my
own
experience
as so
many
corvette
owners
can
relate
to.
Thank
you
for
profiling
your
members
as to
the
credit
of
what
it
means
to
own a
piece
of
Americana.

THANK
YOU
for
providing
these
AMAZING
shots
of
Corvettes
through
the

I am
creating
a

of
our
grandson,
with
him
being
10
months
old,
sitting
in a

His
father
is a
devotee,
and
has
owned
Corvettes,
along
with
memorabilia,
so we
think
that
he
will
love
this
81/2"x11"
we
are
doing
for
him.
It is
his
birthday,
and
this
will
be
his
first
birthday
present
from
us
(his
new
son),
and
you
made
it
happen!
I
have
been
'piece-mealing'
clipart
from
everywhere,
and
then
I
found
you
through
'ask.com'.
Kudos
to
all
of
you,
it
will
make
our
son's
birthday
on
1/16/08
one
of
his
best!
Thank
you
for
giving

as-
the
Corvette-

all

us!

I
went
to
your
Vanderbilt
Show
last
year
and I
was
really
impressed.
Some
really
nice
looking
cars
there.
The
thing
I
liked
most
about
it
was
that
they
weren't
all
C5's
which
suits
me
fine
because
I
have
a '77
(still
waiting
for
the
paint
shop).
I
spoke
to
someone
named
Joe
(maybe
Jim?)
and
he
told
me
that
there
are
different
classes
for
street
driven
cars
which
mine
will
be if
I
ever
get
it
back.
So
maybe
this
year
I'll
enter
my
car
in
the
show.
Either
way
I'll
be at
your
show
but I
hope
to be
an
entrant?
