Happy Holidays... and some lovely video's to watch...
« on: December 22, 2013, 16:07:47 »
Dear all,

I'd like to wish you all a very festive holiday season, and a great new year. May your Pagoda get the attention it deserves. If it runs, try to drive it more often. If it does not (yet) run, promise yourself that you get it to that state. If you are restoring it, I wish for you to win the lottery! If it is already in concours state, treat it to a regular polish and enter a competition... If you do not want to get it in concours state... then drive some rallies or go on a long trek with your car and your loved one!

Whatever you do, share your thoughts, experiences, friendships you've made through the Pagoda here with this group. We are all friends, from all over the world, sharing our appreciation of these cars.

To get you into next year's mood, I've uploaded two long videos to the site: they are at the top of the Video page.
  • The first is the official video of the 50 Years of Pagoda Excellence event at Willingen, Germany. It should provide you with 30 minutes of lovely views, and if you are lucky, you'll spot some regulars from this forum, but also from the other clubs...
  • The second video is provided by Mark Guenther of the Mid-Atlantic Pagoda Gathering on the 27th of October, showing even more people you'll know, and cars that you wish you'd seen in real life...

From Karin and me, Happy Holidays...
