Stan Lucas Passes

We’re sad to report the passing of long time TCMG member Stan Lucas. Stan was the owner of Lucas Classic Tire and was a real force in the car collecting world. His collection was always kept very private but remains one of the premier collections on the west coast, especially his numerous rare early brass cars. There among Stutz, Noble, Packard, Bugatti and many others was his MG TC, displayed as proudly as the others. We would love to share photos of his collection but he never allowed them to be taken. Stan didn’t even use a computer, instead sending hand-written letters in reply after his employees read an email to him. If the reply was time sensitive, he would write the letter and his guys would scan and email it for him. He was a real gentleman and a true enthusiast. Stan was a TCMG member for 36 years.

2025 TCMG Council Announced

Please welcome the newly elected 2025 TC Motoring Guild Executive Council! Your new Executive Officers are John Bowyer, Joyce Edgar, Dean Caccavo, Doug Schirripa, Mike Simmons, Steve Simmons and Rob Zucca.  Other club chairs are currently operating as they did throughout 2024, and may change in January.  Thank you to everyone who gives their time to keep our club running smoothly!

2024 Award Winners

Our congratulations also go out to the winners of the various TCMG awards for 2024:

• Frank Mason Award – Steve Simmons

February recap: 29 members attended our February meeting online. 6 TCs were driven a simulated journey to the meeting by Caccavo, Edgar, Lemieux, St. Clair, Taylor and Zucca. Thanks to Steve Simmons for his presentation on “Places M.G.s Have Never Tread Before”!

For more meeting and event information, visit the Calendar Page.

Monthly Events

The first TCMG organized driving event was held in March of 1955. On the weekend of March 29-30 we will re-create that event, with a planned visit to the very spot where the sole surviving photograph of that event was taken. Be a part of something most clubs will never get to experience on this very special tour!

The image to the left is from our first event in 1955. We have obtained special permission to put our TCs back on this ridge in the very same spot were visited 70 years ago, and take a new photo! Other activities are also planned for the weekend. Hotel information will be sent out by email to those who have signed up.

Please note that this is an RSVP event, as there are channels we need to go through to get the cars onto the ridge. Contact Steve Simmons if you plan to attend.

February recap: Three TCs (one a TB) plus some modern iron took part in our Lame Duck Kup event. Congratulations to Linda Simmons for sweeping the competition and taking home the trophy!

The Edgars Set A New Record

David and Joyce Edgar have won the Earl Sargent Memorial “Use it or Lose it” Trophy this year for a record-setting seventh time! The trophy was first awarded in 1991, and the Edgars achieved their first victory in 2003. Congratulations!

TC Motoring Guild Turns 70 Years Old

Although the group was loosely assembled back in 1952, TCMG was officially formed on June 19, 1954 in the offices of Road & Track magazine. Last June we celebrated 70 years of honoring the MG TC! Our annual Summer Picnic Meeting doubled as a birthday party commemorating our seventh decade as a one make, one model club. A large number of historical artifacts from our archives were on display in a special exhibit put together by Steve Simmons and Rob Zucca. See the August newsletter for photos of this meeting.

TC Provenance List Being Updated and Modernized by TCMG

The well known TC Provenance List was created by TC owner Bob Stein well over a decade ago.  Steve Simmons has assisted with data submissions and updates for the past few years but the list has grown too large to manage by hand.  TC Motoring Guild has jumped in to help update, modernize and maintain the list.  Two of our members, Mike Simmons and Steve Simmons are currently working to convert years of hand typed notes into a sorted and organized database of TC car numbers, owner names, locations and historical data.  The project will take a tremendous amount of man hours but the end result will be a fully modern and searchable database, hosted on the TCMG website.  You can see the old hand-typed Provenance List HERE until the new version is completed.

Our next monthly meeting will be held on February 25th on Zoom. Steve Simmons will give a slide presentation on some of the unusual places their TC has gone, culminating with a particular trip into the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. No paved roads will be a part of this story! Learn how to risk getting stranded in the wilderness, and how to set off on a trip completely unprepared and in a vehicle unsuited for the terrain. This and other important life lessons will be discussed.

January recap: 27 members attended our January meeting. 3 TCs were driven a simulated journey to the meeting by Edgar, Lemieux and Zucca. Thanks to Dan Shockey for his presentation on MG and the RAF!

Further thanks to Mike and Sharon Goodman for a generous donation to our club fundraiser of tools and literature from Mike’s legendary restoration shop.

Monthly DIY Tours

Slip on a warm coat and head out for the TCMG Winter DIY Tour! To participate, your task is to photograph your TC (with or without you in it) with something that suggests “snow”. It doesn’t have to be actual snow, so for those living in the warmer climates you can use your creativity. Something that looks cold or Wintery might do, or perhaps the clever use of a sign or other object that suggests snow or Winter. Think outside the (ice)box!

Drive 10 or more miles during your photo tour to receive a point toward the 2025 Sargent Award. For those with actual snow on the roads, you only need to drive far enough for someone to do a double take at the lunatic driving a TC in the snow to receive points.

Submit your photo(s) to Joyce Edgar by January 15 to receive points and be included in our January meeting slide show.

The Annual Meeting and Holiday Party is Coming!

Mark your calendars for December 8th and get your meal payments in ASAP! See below for general details. A group email with more detailed info has also been sent to members.

TC Motoring Guild Turns 70 Years Old!

Although the group was loosely assembled back in 1952, TCMG was officially formed on June 19, 1954 in the offices of Road & Track magazine. This June we celebrated 70 years of honoring the MG TC! Our annual Summer Picnic Meeting doubled as a birthday party commemorating our seventh decade as a one make, one model club. A large number of historical artifacts from our archives were on display in a special exhibit put together by Steve Simmons and Rob Zucca. See the August newsletter for photos of this meeting.

TC Provenance List Being Updated and Modernized by TCMG

The well known TC Provenance List was created by TC owner Bob Stein well over a decade ago.  Steve Simmons has assisted with data submissions and updates for the past few years but the list has grown too large to manage by hand.  TC Motoring Guild has jumped in to help update, modernize and maintain the list.  Two of our members, Mike Simmons and Steve Simmons are currently working to convert years of hand typed notes into a sorted and organized database of TC car numbers, owner names, locations and historical data.  The project will take a tremendous amount of man hours but the end result will be a fully modern and searchable database, hosted on the TCMG website.  You can see the old hand-typed Provenance List HERE until the new version is completed.

The 2024 TCMG Holiday Party will take place on Sunday, December 8 at the Simmons Residence. Join us and enjoy the following entertainment and activities:

• Awards ceremonies for our three prestigious trophies (no Iron Bottoms this year):
  • Earl Sargent Memorial “Use it or lose it” Trophy
  • Frank Mason Award
  • Breakdown Award
• Announcement of the 2025 TC Motoring Guild Executive Council.
• TCMG vintage film presentation.
• Silent auction of select items plus our annual tradition, auctioning of “The Brick”. This is a piece of the original Abingdon factory where our TCs were built. The wining bid takes the brick home for one year.
• A raffle where you can win a pile of cash!
• Our annual Ladies’ drawing for lovely (non-car related) prizes!
• Slide show of 2024 TCMG tours.
• Toy Drive and Fundraiser to benefit Foster Children’s Resource Center. Bring a new, unwrapped toy or contact Joyce Edgar to make a cash donation.

Remember, those who drive a TC to the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award, and bragging rights for being in the TC lineup at the entrance!

See our group email for further details, including times and location info.

TC Motoring Guild Turns 70 Years Old!

Although the group was loosely assembled back in 1952, TCMG was officially formed on June 19, 1954 in the offices of Road & Track magazine. This June we celebrated 70 years of honoring the MG TC! Our annual Summer Picnic Meeting doubled as a birthday party commemorating our seventh decade as a one make, one model club. A large number of historical artifacts from our archives were on display in a special exhibit put together by Steve Simmons and Rob Zucca. See the August newsletter for photos of this meeting.

TC Provenance List Being Updated and Modernized by TCMG

The well known TC Provenance List was created by TC owner Bob Stein well over a decade ago.  Steve Simmons has assisted with data submissions and updates for the past few years but the list has grown too large to manage by hand.  TC Motoring Guild has jumped in to help update, modernize and maintain the list.  Two of our members, Mike Simmons and Steve Simmons are currently working to convert years of hand typed notes into a sorted and organized database of TC car numbers, owner names, locations and historical data.  The project will take a tremendous amount of man hours but the end result will be a fully modern and searchable database, hosted on the TCMG website.  You can see the old hand-typed Provenance List HERE until the new version is completed.

Our next monthly meeting will be held August 27 on Zoom. The evening’s program will be a talk and photo presentation by Dan Shockey on “The Royal M.G.s”. Dan will be showing us the various M.G. cars owned by the royal family over the years, some of them quite prominent in terms of story and significance.

Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in a TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.

July recap: 27 members attended our July online meeting. 3 TCs were driven a simulated 10 miles by Edgar, Fritz and Zucca.

Our next monthly meeting will be held July 23rd on Zoom. The evening’s program will feature our members’ favorite TC photos. Members are encouraged to send in their favorite photo for inclusion in a slide show, and be prepared to explain the story behind it. Have one from a big tour? A race weekend? Working on the TC with the grand kids? We want to hear about it! Send photos to Joyce Edgar and she will present them as you tell the tale. To ensure we have time for everyone, each member will get time to tell about ONE story or situation. Please limit the total number of your photos to save time.

Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in a TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.

June recap: 31 members attended our June Summer Picnic Meeting and TCMG 70th Birthday Celebration. 7 TCs were in attendance driven by Buckeridge, Edgar, Lemieux, M Simmons, S Simmons and Zucca. Thanks to Linda and Steve Simmons for hosting the party and TCMG history exhibit!

TC Provenance List Being Updated and Modernized by TCMG

The well known TC Provenance List was created by TC owner Bob Stein well over a decade ago.  Steve Simmons has assisted with data submissions and updates for the past few years but the list has grown too large to manage by hand.  TC Motoring Guild has jumped in to help update, modernize and maintain the list.  Two of our members, Mike Simmons and Steve Simmons are currently working to convert years of hand typed notes into a sorted and organized database of TC car numbers, owner names, locations and historical data.  The project will take a tremendous amount of man hours but the end result will be a fully modern and searchable database, hosted on the TCMG website.  You can see the old hand-typed Provenance List HERE until the new version is completed.

Our next monthly meeting will be held on Zoom on April 23rd. The evening’s program will be an introduction to GoF West, an all-MG event held in the Western US each year.

Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in a TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.

March recap: 30 members attended our March meeting on Zoom.  Four TCs were driven a simulated 10 miles by Edgar, Lemieux, S. Simmons and St. Clair. Thanks to Pete Thelander for his presentation on TF restoration and modification.

Monthly Events

Due to a lack of blooms this year, the Wildflower Tour on April 14 was canceled. As a substitute for the Wildflower Tour, we will be holding a Captive Flower Tour in its place. Join us on Saturday, April 27 for a Springtime driving tour and visit to Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge. The botanical garden sits on 150 acres of cultivated and wild land nestled into a natural bowl by surrounding mountains. There are many paths and trails to explore, verdant woodlands, lush gardens, and colorful native flowers. Members are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance to make entrance easier when we arrive (see below).

During our driving tour to the Gardens, we will be visiting a very special place in TCMG history that the group hasn’t seen in 70 years!  Bring your TC for the chance to be in a group photo commemorating our visit.

The driving tour will begin from the same location as our March tour at 300 Harvey Dr, Glendale, CA 91206 (parking lot next door to In-N-Out Burger). Meet at 8:30 AM for tire kicking, and roll out at 9:00 AM for a 30-minute driving tour through Glendale and La Crescenta to the gardens.

DESCANSO GARDENS TICKET INFO: Tickets to the gardens are $15 adults / $11 Seniors / $5 Children.  To purchase, CLICK HERE. Be sure to select April 27 and an entry time of 10:00 AM or earlier. Lunch will follow the event.

March recap: 14 members with five TCs participated in our March tour and picnic. Special thanks to Gene and Patti Olson for hosting the club at their home!

The Wildflower Tour returns for 2024! Recent storms have delayed growth but we are watching the bloom forecast closely and will set a date as soon as we can. Best guess is mid-April. Tentatively we are planning on Sunday, April 14th.

Our adventure will take us on a 1-hour drive along scenic roads to the California Poppy Reserves in Lancaster. After touring the sprawling fields of flowers, we will picnic at a nearby location.

March recap: 14 members with five TCs participated in our March tour and picnic. Special thanks to Gene and Patti Olson for hosting the club at their home!

Our next monthly meeting will be held on Zoom on March 26th. The evening’s program will feature a slide presentation by Pete Thelander on the recent restoration and modification of his MG TF that he has owned for 68 years. Pete will explain not only the restoration process, but also show the significant modifications to the drive train that required quite a bit of ingenuity to accomplish. The accompanying photo is just a hint of what has been done to make “the ultimate TF driver”.

Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in a TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.

February recap: 25 members and one guest attended our February meeting on Zoom.  Seven TCs were driven a simulated 10 miles by Caccavo, Edgar, Lemieux, Loe, S. Simmons, St. Clair and Zucca.
