For those going for the Sargent Trophy, note that we have two official events this month – the much anticipated Mount Wilson Tour on June 6 and GoF West June 15-19 in Rohnert Park.

Check out our Regalia Page for new regalia items! We have just added two jigsaw puzzles to our regalia offerings. These are the same puzzles featured in our annual Puzzle Night competitions!

Our next monthly meeting is the always enjoyable Henkels Picnic!  Join us on June 23 at the Henkels home and bring a picnic dinner.  Desserts are provided by our hosts.  For those returning from GoF West, bring your awards or other items of interest to share.  There will be lots of tire kicking and gawking at Tony’s many “big boy toys”, along with the usual good company.  Don’t miss out, be there!

Many thanks to our guest speaker at the May meeting, Mike Simmons, who gave an excellent talk about the location of our June tour, Mount Wilson Observatory.

Our next event takes us to Rohnert Park for GoF West 2015.  If you have not yet registered, act now!  Contact Pete Thelander for caravan information to and from the event.

At our next monthly meeting on May 26, our special guest is Mike Simmons, president of Astronomers Without Borders and founder of the Mount Wilson Observatory Association. Mike has given talks to numerous scientific organizations around the world, and this May will be giving our club a presentation on the rich history of the Mount Wilson Observatory which spans well over a century. His talk will include a slideshow of historic images, showing turn of the century vehicles and machines, how an observatory came to a 5700-foot mountaintop in 1904, and the many famous faces like Einstein and Hubble who made important scientific discoveries while working at Mount Wilson.

This is a fascinating presentation and is an excellent primer for our June 6th tour to the observatory itself. Whether or not you will attend the tour, you won’t want to miss this program!

Come experience a special VIP tour of the historic Mount Wilson Observatory! Our group will be treated to a guided tour of the facility and it’s historically important instruments, most over 100 years old and still making discoveries. We will see parts of the grounds that are not visited by the general public including the inner workings of a 5-story tall telescope built in a World War I shipyard.

Please RSVP for this event by May 26 and note there is a fee of $12 per person for the tour. If you plan to attend, contact our events coordinator Steve Simmons for detailed information.

May Recap: 24 people along with four TCs, an MGC and classic Mustang attended our second annual Wine Country Weekend. See the upcoming newsletter for full coverage of the event!

David will be showing a restoration in progress on his MG SA Saloon, pictured here as it was in 2009.

Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy one of the better British car shows in the area.  It is a non-judged show, and includes an auto jumble nearby.

TCMG Loses Two Of Our Cherished Members

Stan Roman, January 2015

Earlier this month we lost a well known and beloved member, Stan Roman. Stan and Anita joined TC Motoring Guild way back in 1969 and have been active members for much of the time since. Even after they sold their TC due to health issues, the Romans remained active, participating in many of our events and meetings year after year. The accompanying photo shows the Romans at our Halloween Party several years ago.

Services for Stan were held on January 9. Fifteen TCMG’ers were present along with a pair of TCs in the procession. To send cards or letters of sympathy, see the club membership directory for the Roman’s mailing address. The January newsletter will feature more about Stan and his time in the club.

Phil Marino, December 2014

It is our sad duty to announce the passing of Phil Marino, a long-time TCMG member and devoted MG TC enthusiast. Phil was a talented machinist whose components are running in many of our cars today. He was a pioneer in the modern, unbreakable axles that we all enjoy as well as the creator of countless other parts that make our lives easier including spin-on oil filter adapters, brass master cylinders and much, much more. As a 30-year member of the TC Motoring Guild, he became a friend and mentor to many TC owners and he will be missed by each and every one.

Services for Phil were held on December 29th. Several TCs were present, many with Phil’s parts installed, and they all caravaned together from the service in his honor. Look to the January newsletter for more about Phil Marino and the people he befriended in his journeys.

Our next monthly will be held on February 24. David Edgar will be speaking about the SU carburetors found on our TCs. Examples will be on hand for members to see up close in various states of assembly. Don’t miss this very interesting presentation! Doors open at 7:30 PM. For more meeting and event information, visit the Calendar Page.

Our March event will take us on a tour of Strathearn Historical Park & Museum in Simi Valley. The site features numerous buildings from the 1800’s and early 1900’s.

TCMG Loses Two Of Our Cherished Members

Stan Roman, January 2015

Earlier this month we lost a well known and beloved member, Stan Roman. Stan and Anita joined TC Motoring Guild way back in 1969 and have been active members for much of the time since. Even after they sold their TC due to health issues, the Romans remained active, participating in many of our events and meetings year after year. The accompanying photo shows the Romans at our Halloween Party several years ago.

Services for Stan were held on January 9. Fifteen TCMG’ers were present along with a pair of TCs in the procession. To send cards or letters of sympathy, see the club membership directory for the Roman’s mailing address. The January newsletter will feature more about Stan and his time in the club.

Phil Marino, December 2014

It is our sad duty to announce the passing of Phil Marino, a long-time TCMG member and devoted MG TC enthusiast. Phil was a talented machinist whose components are running in many of our cars today. He was a pioneer in the modern, unbreakable axles that we all enjoy as well as the creator of countless other parts that make our lives easier including spin-on oil filter adapters, brass master cylinders and much, much more. As a 30-year member of the TC Motoring Guild, he became a friend and mentor to many TC owners and he will be missed by each and every one.

Services for Phil were held on December 29th. Several TCs were present, many with Phil’s parts installed, and they all caravaned together from the service in his honor. Look to the January newsletter for more about Phil Marino and the people he befriended in his journeys.

Our next monthly will be held on February 24.  David Edgar will be speaking about the SU carburetors found on our TCs.  Examples will be on hand for members to see up close in various states of assembly.  Don’t miss this very interesting presentation!  Doors open at 7:30 PM. For more meeting and event information, visit the Calendar Page.

Our next event will be held on Saturday February 7. Start off the new year with a thrilling, no holds barred TC Motoring Guild miniature golf competition! The winner takes home our coveted Lame Duk Kup Trophy, to be treasured for one whole year. Lunch and awards will follow at the nearby Robin Hood British Pub. For more information, see the Calendar Page or the flyer in our January / February newsletter.

Lame Duk Trivia: A traditional event of over three decades, and always the first one of the year, the Lame Duk Kup is a constantly changing event of competition and cheating, followed up by lunch and awarding of the coveted (not really) Lame Duk. Come test your skills and your ability to bend the rules to your advantage! To learn a bit about the history of this event, click here.

Old TC Motoring Guild Film Discovered

TCMG Member Jim Crandall has just finished re-editing a 16mm film made by club members back in 1972. Now set to music and with added credits identifying the players, this is a wonderful look into the past of not only our club but Southern California’s car scene as well. The video was screened at our August meeting in San Diego during GoF West, but for those who missed it we present the video here. You can also watch it on You Tube.

Our next monthly meeting on November 25 brings us a fascinating presentation by TCMG members David Reid and Terry Schuller.  They will be speaking about their business in underwater photography, the equipment and techniques required, and showing examples of their work.  You won’t want to miss this one!

Congratulations to the team of Ron and Bobbie Simon, and Kay and Larry Einhorn for narrowly winning our Halloween Party Brain Twister Competition at the October meeting!

See the Calendar Page for more program and event info.

Our next event will take place on Saturday, November 8.  We will be visiting Old Town Music Hall in El Segundo where our club will enjoy a collection of Laurel and Hardy silent and talkie movies!  Silent movies will be accompanied by a 1925 Wurlitzer organ.  Lunch precedes the event.  Watch for a flyer in your mailbox with detailed information including meeting place, parking instructions, admission cost and lunch location.  Contact Steve Simmons with any further questions.

The 58th Annual TCMG / ARR Conclave in Sonora this October was enjoyed by 45 members of both clubs. 16 TCs made a showing, plus one MGB and a Jaguar E-Type. Locations for next year’s event are being scouted. If you have any suggestions, send them to our events chair, Steve Simmons.

The video was screened at our August meeting in San Diego during GoF West, but for those who missed it we present the video here. You can also watch it on You Tube.

TC participation in 2014 driving events hit a new high at our May event with 12 TCs (out of 18 cars total) taking part in our “Wine Country Weekend”.

NOTE NEW MEETING TIME!  Unless otherwise noted, all future meetings will start at 7:00 PM, one hour earlier than in the past.  Doors will be open at 6:45.

Our next monthly meeting on July 22 will feature Bill Ippolito, who will speak about his adventures in flying and auto racing. Bill is a retired Delta Airlines Captain, lives in Newport Beach, and is still flying, and currently building an all metal RV-18 2-place airplane in his garage. While living in Dallas, and flying out of Atlanta, Bill started racing a Merlyn Formula Ford open-wheel race car at various tracks in the southeast, ultimately becoming the US importer of many Merlyns.

Our June picnic meeting at the Henkels’ home had 38 members in attendance with 5 TCs belonging to Thelander, Loe, Simmons, Hanes and guest Bata Mataja.  Thank you to Tony and Cindy Henkels for hosting another great picnic for the club.

See the Calendar Page for more program and event info.

Our July event will take place on Saturday the 12th along the cool Malibu coastline.  Come take a tour of the historic Adamson House and Malibu Lagoon Museum, a Spanish Colonial Revival style home built in 1929.  Please see the Calendar Page for additional information, and watch for a flyer with final details arriving by mail.

SPECIAL NOTE: Our private guided tour is limited to 20 persons.  Please let our event organizer, Steve Simmons, know if you plan to attend so we can keep track of our numbers.  Additional tickets will be available as overflow for the regular public tour which starts shortly after ours.

Our June event was attended by 22 members and guests, who enjoyed a beautiful day of cherry picking in Leona Valley. Five TCs and hundreds of cherries took part in the event.  TCs were driven by Richard and Sandra Loe, Garrett and Ambre Hanes, Steve and Linda Simmons, Joe Douglass and friend Eleanor, and Jim and Kim Ellis.
