Troy Garage Crawl Photos

On June 13 over 60 FMRCOA members were treated to an outstanding garage crawl organized by Brian Saylor in the Troy, Michigan area. Our first stop was at Classic & Exotic Service, then Brothers Custom, next was Masterworks Automotive Services, and finally club member Jerry Mattson's garage. Find out more about the garage crawl in the June Rotunda Times. Brian took some great photos at the various locations. Check them out in the Event Photos section.

New Location for Monthly Club Meetings

Our monthly club meetings will now be at St. Mary’s Cultural Center at 18100 Merriman Rd in Livonia between 6 and 7 Mile Roads. This is the beautiful facility where we have held the last several dinner dances. Moreover, it has a extremely large parking lot enabling club cars to be easily parked together (and the food is good!). Meetings will continue to be on the first Wednesday of each month and will begin at 7:30 PM. At the June meeting, however, we will hold our annual mini swap meet so please plan to come early to buy/sell stuff! And do bring a friend!

The Rotunda Times Wins the Golden Quill Award!

For the second year in a row, FMRCOA's monthly newsletter, The Rotunda Times, has been named a winner of the 2008 Old Cars Weekly Golden Quill Award in the National division. Take a moment and read the Golden Quill article at Old Cars Weekly. I think you'll agree, The Rotunda Times is one of the best newsletters around! Congratulations to the entire FMRCOA club, editor Steve Rohde, and all the authors that contribute articles each month...way to go!!

Informal Breakfast for FMRCOA Club members

Some of our members go to breakfast every Saturday morning at the Ram's Horn located at the NW corner of Rochester Road and Hamlin Road across from Bordine's Nursery. This is north and east of Auburn Road. If the weather is nice we usually have quite a few antiques and hot rods. Members usually show up from 6am until 9am.
