Send some photos and a few words about YOUR old car adventures to share with fellow members

More than 40 Club members attended the Welcome Back party at the Marco Island Yacht Club on October 19th Sorry I couldnt get everybody in one picture as we stretched out onto many tables Although the weather was rainy some of the members drove their classics and parked in front of the Yacht Club Below with a view of the Marco Island Bridge in the background a smaller group of members are engaged in conversations before being served Obviously their discussions related to antique carsThanks Yvonne for sharing

Presidentrsquos Page (a continuation of last months RB inadvertently left out of the last Running

Board together with an update)

There was a good turnout for our Chefs Night Out on July 15th and the eighteen

members who attended enjoyed a super Italian dinner at the Olive Garden As

usual when we all get together the conversations were lively and engaging and

not just limited to cars Thanks Yvonne for making the necessary

arrangements I hope when the rest of the membership returns after summer

and after we resume our regular meeting schedule we will hear of more exploits

and adventuresmdashwhether car related or not

Danny and Kaye Mullis hosted the August ldquoIce Cream Runrdquo on the 6th at the

Silver Lakes Clubhouse In addition to our members a number of their

neighbors also attended and there was not a quiet table in the place Once

again our members demonstrated how open and engaging we can be and

maybe a few of the neighbors will consider joining our Club I know no one left

with an unsatisfied ldquosweet toothrdquo Thanks Danny and Kay for making the

arrangements

We again had an Italian feast when we met and socialized on August 19th at

Albertos on Fifth thanks to arrangements made by Hank F for our Chefs Night

Out While the one long table resulted in there being pockets of conversations

our 20 members circulated which was made easier because the restaurant was

not crowded The food was fantastic and the price was right with the early

special menu

Our regular meeting schedule resumed September 16th and meetings will

continue to be held every third Monday of the month at the Methodist Church

Think of bringing a neighbor or friend who might thereafter join our Club Our

next meeting is on October 21st and the program title is ldquoThe Bonneville Salt

Flatsrdquo The Executive Committees proposed slate of officers will also be

announced If anyone is interested in serving as an officeror director you are

encouraged to attend the Executive Board meeting on Monday October 7th

at 3690 Radio Road 101 (at Radio Rd and Donna St) The meeting will begin

at 6pm and we try to adjourn by 7pm or so Elections will take place at our

November meeting on the 18th

(updated news)

On September 6th we had five cars on display at the Chick-fil-A Mother-Son

Night Wes Kunkle Ron Schlectweg Murrel and Kathy Hollis Yvonne and Paul

Rhoads and I were not only treated to dinner but we also were reminded of

what thirty or so rambunctious boys do to entertain themselves Talk about

being ldquorevved uprdquo As wild as the boys were inside the facility outside the cars

they were quiet respectful and inquisitive regarding the cars A good time was

had by all

The Club provided the three cars for display as requested at the Naples Depot

even on September 21st Wes Kunkle Wes Kunkle Jr and I had our cars on

display The crowds were mostly young families and the weather held out The

Depot folks were appreciative of our participation

Thanks to Peter Blackford for sharing his and Sandys Great Britain adventure

with us at our September 23rd meeting What a treat to have vicariously enjoyed

being at Highclere Castle (think Downton Abbey) through the many pictures they

took At the racing grounds the sculpture was dazzling and the engineering to

accomplish it amazing

Our Welcome Back Party was a hugh success Many ldquoThanksrdquo go to Yvonne for

making the party arrangements and to Barbara Donald for securing the Marco

Island Yacht facility which allowed 40 or more members in attendance to

reacquaint We also took advantage of the opportunity to wish Tom and Elysee

Marshall a ldquoHappy Anniversaryrdquo

The Bonneville Salt Flats program on October 21st held everyones interest and

the ice cream break was very welcome so our ears could recover Unfortunately

we heard from the Methodist Church that our clean-up was not up to par I will

address this at our meeting on Novemer 18th It is a credit to the Club that all

our members pitch in at the end of the nmght regarding chairs and tables and

with a little more effort and attention we should be able to leave the facility in as

good a condition as we receive it

Dont forget---ELECTIONS at our next meeting on 1128 Also I hope you

have been giving thought to whether the Club should order magnetic displays of

the club logo for placing on our cars at non-AACA shows or whenever else it

seems appropriate Lets discuss it and vote on it at our next meeting Other

datesevents to remember The Rookery Bay Car Show is 1116 the Club

will be displaying cars at Aston Gardens on 126 from 10am to 1pm (lunch

included) our Holiday Luncheon at the Bonefish Grill in Naples is 1211 our

Gala Dinner dance is 11120 at the Longshore Country Clubmdashthink of a friend

or neighbor who you need to thank for somethingmdashyou can treat themthank

them by buying tickets for them to our Gala The Club fills its quota we get to

meet new people and perhaps some will like us and join as new members

Lastly Ron Schlechtweg has agreed to be the contact person for listing events

He will coordinate with Patrick Parker to see that a currentl listing of events

appears in the Running Board If you are aware of any events you feel Club

members will be interested in please contact Ron My thanks to him for

Keith Fisher

Perhaps the oldest active member of the Naples-Marco AACA club is Keith Fisher

Kathy Hollis reports in ldquoNovember Historyrdquo that Keith was one of the founding

members of the Club back in the early 1980s In 1982 he was the president and has

remained a member to this day So maybe hes not the oldest in terms of age but a

long long time member nontheless Keith and his wife Helga spend their ldquoout-of-

Floridardquo time in North Carolina and he recently sent a photo of the two of them in

Iowa with the Mississippi River in the background He sent the pic to Mal Newbourne

who shared it with me stating they were visiting near Davenport where the ldquoAmerican

Pickersrdquo have their store of ldquobarn findsrdquo ldquoAmerican Pickersrdquo is a TV show by the way

and the guys go all over looking for antiques of all sorts and in places you can hardly

imagine Its a ldquofunrdquo program

Letter from France

In case you forgot to change the batteries in your calendar you may not be

aware that this year is the 100th anniversary of Citroeumln While doing some

research I happened to stumble upon a fascinating bit of wartime Citroeumln

lore It involves screwing with Nazis in a genuinely clever and subtle way

that nevertheless had big repercussions Ill explain

So when France was occupied by the Germans in 1940 major French

factories like Citroeumln were forced to produce equipment for the

Nazis Citroeumln president Pierre-Jules Boulanger knew he couldnt just

refuse to produce anything but he also knew theres no way in hell hes

going to just roll over and build trucks for a bunch of filthy Nazis Pierre had

a plan

John Reynoldsrsquo book Citroen 2CV describes Boulangers sabotage

efforts Of course he instructed workers to set a nice leisurely pace when

building trucks (likely Citroeumln T45 trucks) for the Wermacht but thats fairly

obvious What was brilliant was Boulangers idea to move the little notch on

the trucks oil dipsticks that indicated the proper level of oil down just a bit

lower

By moving the notch down the trucks would not have enough oil but

German mechanics would have no idea because hey the little notch on

the dipstick says itrsquos just fine Then after the truck had been used for a

while and is out deployed somewhere crucial whammo the engine seizes

up and youve got a lot of angry stranded vulnerable Nazis balling up their

little fists and barking curses in German

Its such a fantastic act of sabotage because Its extremely cheap to

implement its subtle theres no way to see something amiss is happening

as the trucks are being built and it delivers its blow away from the site of

the sabotage and when it will cause the most inconvenience and trouble

Thats some mighty good sabotaging Pierre

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Journeys

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

Keith Fisher

Perhaps the oldest active member of the Naples-Marco AACA club is Keith Fisher

Kathy Hollis reports in ldquoNovember Historyrdquo that Keith was one of the founding

members of the Club back in the early 1980s In 1982 he was the president and has

remained a member to this day So maybe hes not the oldest in terms of age but a

long long time member nontheless Keith and his wife Helga spend their ldquoout-of-

Floridardquo time in North Carolina and he recently sent a photo of the two of them in

Iowa with the Mississippi River in the background He sent the pic to Mal Newbourne

who shared it with me stating they were visiting near Davenport where the ldquoAmerican

Pickersrdquo have their store of ldquobarn findsrdquo ldquoAmerican Pickersrdquo is a TV show by the way

and the guys go all over looking for antiques of all sorts and in places you can hardly

imagine Its a ldquofunrdquo program

Letter from France

In case you forgot to change the batteries in your calendar you may not be

aware that this year is the 100th anniversary of Citroeumln While doing some

research I happened to stumble upon a fascinating bit of wartime Citroeumln

lore It involves screwing with Nazis in a genuinely clever and subtle way

that nevertheless had big repercussions Ill explain

So when France was occupied by the Germans in 1940 major French

factories like Citroeumln were forced to produce equipment for the

Nazis Citroeumln president Pierre-Jules Boulanger knew he couldnt just

refuse to produce anything but he also knew theres no way in hell hes

going to just roll over and build trucks for a bunch of filthy Nazis Pierre had

a plan

John Reynoldsrsquo book Citroen 2CV describes Boulangers sabotage

efforts Of course he instructed workers to set a nice leisurely pace when

building trucks (likely Citroeumln T45 trucks) for the Wermacht but thats fairly

obvious What was brilliant was Boulangers idea to move the little notch on

the trucks oil dipsticks that indicated the proper level of oil down just a bit

lower

By moving the notch down the trucks would not have enough oil but

German mechanics would have no idea because hey the little notch on

the dipstick says itrsquos just fine Then after the truck had been used for a

while and is out deployed somewhere crucial whammo the engine seizes

up and youve got a lot of angry stranded vulnerable Nazis balling up their

little fists and barking curses in German

Its such a fantastic act of sabotage because Its extremely cheap to

implement its subtle theres no way to see something amiss is happening

as the trucks are being built and it delivers its blow away from the site of

the sabotage and when it will cause the most inconvenience and trouble

Thats some mighty good sabotaging Pierre

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Journeys

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

Board delivery

Page 3: November 2019President’s Page (a continuation of last month's RB, inadvertently left out of the last Running Board, together with an update) There was a good turnout for our Chef's

More than 40 Club members attended the Welcome Back party at the Marco Island Yacht Club on October 19th Sorry I couldnt get everybody in one picture as we stretched out onto many tables Although the weather was rainy some of the members drove their classics and parked in front of the Yacht Club Below with a view of the Marco Island Bridge in the background a smaller group of members are engaged in conversations before being served Obviously their discussions related to antique carsThanks Yvonne for sharing

Presidentrsquos Page (a continuation of last months RB inadvertently left out of the last Running

Board together with an update)

There was a good turnout for our Chefs Night Out on July 15th and the eighteen

members who attended enjoyed a super Italian dinner at the Olive Garden As

usual when we all get together the conversations were lively and engaging and

not just limited to cars Thanks Yvonne for making the necessary

arrangements I hope when the rest of the membership returns after summer

and after we resume our regular meeting schedule we will hear of more exploits

and adventuresmdashwhether car related or not

Danny and Kaye Mullis hosted the August ldquoIce Cream Runrdquo on the 6th at the

Silver Lakes Clubhouse In addition to our members a number of their

neighbors also attended and there was not a quiet table in the place Once

again our members demonstrated how open and engaging we can be and

maybe a few of the neighbors will consider joining our Club I know no one left

with an unsatisfied ldquosweet toothrdquo Thanks Danny and Kay for making the

arrangements

We again had an Italian feast when we met and socialized on August 19th at

Albertos on Fifth thanks to arrangements made by Hank F for our Chefs Night

Out While the one long table resulted in there being pockets of conversations

our 20 members circulated which was made easier because the restaurant was

not crowded The food was fantastic and the price was right with the early

special menu

Our regular meeting schedule resumed September 16th and meetings will

continue to be held every third Monday of the month at the Methodist Church

Think of bringing a neighbor or friend who might thereafter join our Club Our

next meeting is on October 21st and the program title is ldquoThe Bonneville Salt

Flatsrdquo The Executive Committees proposed slate of officers will also be

announced If anyone is interested in serving as an officeror director you are

encouraged to attend the Executive Board meeting on Monday October 7th

at 3690 Radio Road 101 (at Radio Rd and Donna St) The meeting will begin

at 6pm and we try to adjourn by 7pm or so Elections will take place at our

November meeting on the 18th

(updated news)

On September 6th we had five cars on display at the Chick-fil-A Mother-Son

Night Wes Kunkle Ron Schlectweg Murrel and Kathy Hollis Yvonne and Paul

Rhoads and I were not only treated to dinner but we also were reminded of

what thirty or so rambunctious boys do to entertain themselves Talk about

being ldquorevved uprdquo As wild as the boys were inside the facility outside the cars

they were quiet respectful and inquisitive regarding the cars A good time was

had by all

The Club provided the three cars for display as requested at the Naples Depot

even on September 21st Wes Kunkle Wes Kunkle Jr and I had our cars on

display The crowds were mostly young families and the weather held out The

Depot folks were appreciative of our participation

Thanks to Peter Blackford for sharing his and Sandys Great Britain adventure

with us at our September 23rd meeting What a treat to have vicariously enjoyed

being at Highclere Castle (think Downton Abbey) through the many pictures they

took At the racing grounds the sculpture was dazzling and the engineering to

accomplish it amazing

Our Welcome Back Party was a hugh success Many ldquoThanksrdquo go to Yvonne for

making the party arrangements and to Barbara Donald for securing the Marco

Island Yacht facility which allowed 40 or more members in attendance to

reacquaint We also took advantage of the opportunity to wish Tom and Elysee

Marshall a ldquoHappy Anniversaryrdquo

The Bonneville Salt Flats program on October 21st held everyones interest and

the ice cream break was very welcome so our ears could recover Unfortunately

we heard from the Methodist Church that our clean-up was not up to par I will

address this at our meeting on Novemer 18th It is a credit to the Club that all

our members pitch in at the end of the nmght regarding chairs and tables and

with a little more effort and attention we should be able to leave the facility in as

good a condition as we receive it

Dont forget---ELECTIONS at our next meeting on 1128 Also I hope you

have been giving thought to whether the Club should order magnetic displays of

the club logo for placing on our cars at non-AACA shows or whenever else it

seems appropriate Lets discuss it and vote on it at our next meeting Other

datesevents to remember The Rookery Bay Car Show is 1116 the Club

will be displaying cars at Aston Gardens on 126 from 10am to 1pm (lunch

included) our Holiday Luncheon at the Bonefish Grill in Naples is 1211 our

Gala Dinner dance is 11120 at the Longshore Country Clubmdashthink of a friend

or neighbor who you need to thank for somethingmdashyou can treat themthank

them by buying tickets for them to our Gala The Club fills its quota we get to

meet new people and perhaps some will like us and join as new members

Lastly Ron Schlechtweg has agreed to be the contact person for listing events

He will coordinate with Patrick Parker to see that a currentl listing of events

appears in the Running Board If you are aware of any events you feel Club

members will be interested in please contact Ron My thanks to him for

agreeing to this undertaking

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

MEETING IS THE THIRD MONDAY OF THE MONTH

Oops ndash should really say ldquoGet an E-mail boxrdquohellipfor fast free and colorful Running

Board delivery

Page 4: November 2019President’s Page (a continuation of last month's RB, inadvertently left out of the last Running Board, together with an update) There was a good turnout for our Chef's

Presidentrsquos Page (a continuation of last months RB inadvertently left out of the last Running

Board together with an update)

There was a good turnout for our Chefs Night Out on July 15th and the eighteen

members who attended enjoyed a super Italian dinner at the Olive Garden As

usual when we all get together the conversations were lively and engaging and

not just limited to cars Thanks Yvonne for making the necessary

arrangements I hope when the rest of the membership returns after summer

and after we resume our regular meeting schedule we will hear of more exploits

and adventuresmdashwhether car related or not

Danny and Kaye Mullis hosted the August ldquoIce Cream Runrdquo on the 6th at the

Silver Lakes Clubhouse In addition to our members a number of their

neighbors also attended and there was not a quiet table in the place Once

again our members demonstrated how open and engaging we can be and

maybe a few of the neighbors will consider joining our Club I know no one left

with an unsatisfied ldquosweet toothrdquo Thanks Danny and Kay for making the

arrangements

We again had an Italian feast when we met and socialized on August 19th at

Albertos on Fifth thanks to arrangements made by Hank F for our Chefs Night

Out While the one long table resulted in there being pockets of conversations

our 20 members circulated which was made easier because the restaurant was

not crowded The food was fantastic and the price was right with the early

special menu

Our regular meeting schedule resumed September 16th and meetings will

continue to be held every third Monday of the month at the Methodist Church

Think of bringing a neighbor or friend who might thereafter join our Club Our

next meeting is on October 21st and the program title is ldquoThe Bonneville Salt

Flatsrdquo The Executive Committees proposed slate of officers will also be

announced If anyone is interested in serving as an officeror director you are

encouraged to attend the Executive Board meeting on Monday October 7th

at 3690 Radio Road 101 (at Radio Rd and Donna St) The meeting will begin

at 6pm and we try to adjourn by 7pm or so Elections will take place at our

November meeting on the 18th

(updated news)

On September 6th we had five cars on display at the Chick-fil-A Mother-Son

Night Wes Kunkle Ron Schlectweg Murrel and Kathy Hollis Yvonne and Paul

Rhoads and I were not only treated to dinner but we also were reminded of

what thirty or so rambunctious boys do to entertain themselves Talk about

being ldquorevved uprdquo As wild as the boys were inside the facility outside the cars

they were quiet respectful and inquisitive regarding the cars A good time was

had by all

The Club provided the three cars for display as requested at the Naples Depot

even on September 21st Wes Kunkle Wes Kunkle Jr and I had our cars on

display The crowds were mostly young families and the weather held out The

Depot folks were appreciative of our participation

Thanks to Peter Blackford for sharing his and Sandys Great Britain adventure

with us at our September 23rd meeting What a treat to have vicariously enjoyed

being at Highclere Castle (think Downton Abbey) through the many pictures they

took At the racing grounds the sculpture was dazzling and the engineering to

accomplish it amazing

Our Welcome Back Party was a hugh success Many ldquoThanksrdquo go to Yvonne for

making the party arrangements and to Barbara Donald for securing the Marco

Island Yacht facility which allowed 40 or more members in attendance to

reacquaint We also took advantage of the opportunity to wish Tom and Elysee

Marshall a ldquoHappy Anniversaryrdquo

The Bonneville Salt Flats program on October 21st held everyones interest and

the ice cream break was very welcome so our ears could recover Unfortunately

we heard from the Methodist Church that our clean-up was not up to par I will

address this at our meeting on Novemer 18th It is a credit to the Club that all

our members pitch in at the end of the nmght regarding chairs and tables and

with a little more effort and attention we should be able to leave the facility in as

good a condition as we receive it

Dont forget---ELECTIONS at our next meeting on 1128 Also I hope you

have been giving thought to whether the Club should order magnetic displays of

the club logo for placing on our cars at non-AACA shows or whenever else it

seems appropriate Lets discuss it and vote on it at our next meeting Other

datesevents to remember The Rookery Bay Car Show is 1116 the Club

will be displaying cars at Aston Gardens on 126 from 10am to 1pm (lunch

included) our Holiday Luncheon at the Bonefish Grill in Naples is 1211 our

Gala Dinner dance is 11120 at the Longshore Country Clubmdashthink of a friend

or neighbor who you need to thank for somethingmdashyou can treat themthank

them by buying tickets for them to our Gala The Club fills its quota we get to

meet new people and perhaps some will like us and join as new members

Lastly Ron Schlechtweg has agreed to be the contact person for listing events

He will coordinate with Patrick Parker to see that a currentl listing of events

appears in the Running Board If you are aware of any events you feel Club

members will be interested in please contact Ron My thanks to him for

agreeing to this undertaking

Encourage your fellow members to attend our next meeting See you then

Keith Fisher

Perhaps the oldest active member of the Naples-Marco AACA club is Keith Fisher

Kathy Hollis reports in ldquoNovember Historyrdquo that Keith was one of the founding

members of the Club back in the early 1980s In 1982 he was the president and has

remained a member to this day So maybe hes not the oldest in terms of age but a

long long time member nontheless Keith and his wife Helga spend their ldquoout-of-

Floridardquo time in North Carolina and he recently sent a photo of the two of them in

Iowa with the Mississippi River in the background He sent the pic to Mal Newbourne

who shared it with me stating they were visiting near Davenport where the ldquoAmerican

Pickersrdquo have their store of ldquobarn findsrdquo ldquoAmerican Pickersrdquo is a TV show by the way

and the guys go all over looking for antiques of all sorts and in places you can hardly

imagine Its a ldquofunrdquo program

Letter from France

In case you forgot to change the batteries in your calendar you may not be

aware that this year is the 100th anniversary of Citroeumln While doing some

research I happened to stumble upon a fascinating bit of wartime Citroeumln

lore It involves screwing with Nazis in a genuinely clever and subtle way

that nevertheless had big repercussions Ill explain

So when France was occupied by the Germans in 1940 major French

factories like Citroeumln were forced to produce equipment for the

Nazis Citroeumln president Pierre-Jules Boulanger knew he couldnt just

refuse to produce anything but he also knew theres no way in hell hes

going to just roll over and build trucks for a bunch of filthy Nazis Pierre had

a plan

John Reynoldsrsquo book Citroen 2CV describes Boulangers sabotage

efforts Of course he instructed workers to set a nice leisurely pace when

building trucks (likely Citroeumln T45 trucks) for the Wermacht but thats fairly

obvious What was brilliant was Boulangers idea to move the little notch on

the trucks oil dipsticks that indicated the proper level of oil down just a bit

lower

By moving the notch down the trucks would not have enough oil but

German mechanics would have no idea because hey the little notch on

the dipstick says itrsquos just fine Then after the truck had been used for a

while and is out deployed somewhere crucial whammo the engine seizes

up and youve got a lot of angry stranded vulnerable Nazis balling up their

little fists and barking curses in German

Its such a fantastic act of sabotage because Its extremely cheap to

implement its subtle theres no way to see something amiss is happening

as the trucks are being built and it delivers its blow away from the site of

the sabotage and when it will cause the most inconvenience and trouble

Thats some mighty good sabotaging Pierre

(Thanks Peter Blackford for this articleHistory is funny)

we heard from the Methodist Church that our clean-up was not up to par I will

address this at our meeting on Novemer 18th It is a credit to the Club that all

our members pitch in at the end of the nmght regarding chairs and tables and

with a little more effort and attention we should be able to leave the facility in as

good a condition as we receive it

Dont forget---ELECTIONS at our next meeting on 1128 Also I hope you

have been giving thought to whether the Club should order magnetic displays of

the club logo for placing on our cars at non-AACA shows or whenever else it

seems appropriate Lets discuss it and vote on it at our next meeting Other

datesevents to remember The Rookery Bay Car Show is 1116 the Club

will be displaying cars at Aston Gardens on 126 from 10am to 1pm (lunch

included) our Holiday Luncheon at the Bonefish Grill in Naples is 1211 our

Gala Dinner dance is 11120 at the Longshore Country Clubmdashthink of a friend

or neighbor who you need to thank for somethingmdashyou can treat themthank

members will be interested in please contact Ron My thanks to him for

Keith Fisher

Perhaps the oldest active member of the Naples-Marco AACA club is Keith Fisher

Kathy Hollis reports in ldquoNovember Historyrdquo that Keith was one of the founding

members of the Club back in the early 1980s In 1982 he was the president and has

remained a member to this day So maybe hes not the oldest in terms of age but a

long long time member nontheless Keith and his wife Helga spend their ldquoout-of-

Floridardquo time in North Carolina and he recently sent a photo of the two of them in

Iowa with the Mississippi River in the background He sent the pic to Mal Newbourne

who shared it with me stating they were visiting near Davenport where the ldquoAmerican

Pickersrdquo have their store of ldquobarn findsrdquo ldquoAmerican Pickersrdquo is a TV show by the way

and the guys go all over looking for antiques of all sorts and in places you can hardly

imagine Its a ldquofunrdquo program

Letter from France

In case you forgot to change the batteries in your calendar you may not be

aware that this year is the 100th anniversary of Citroeumln While doing some

research I happened to stumble upon a fascinating bit of wartime Citroeumln

lore It involves screwing with Nazis in a genuinely clever and subtle way

that nevertheless had big repercussions Ill explain

So when France was occupied by the Germans in 1940 major French

factories like Citroeumln were forced to produce equipment for the

Nazis Citroeumln president Pierre-Jules Boulanger knew he couldnt just

refuse to produce anything but he also knew theres no way in hell hes

going to just roll over and build trucks for a bunch of filthy Nazis Pierre had

a plan

John Reynoldsrsquo book Citroen 2CV describes Boulangers sabotage

efforts Of course he instructed workers to set a nice leisurely pace when

building trucks (likely Citroeumln T45 trucks) for the Wermacht but thats fairly

obvious What was brilliant was Boulangers idea to move the little notch on

the trucks oil dipsticks that indicated the proper level of oil down just a bit

lower

By moving the notch down the trucks would not have enough oil but

German mechanics would have no idea because hey the little notch on

the dipstick says itrsquos just fine Then after the truck had been used for a

while and is out deployed somewhere crucial whammo the engine seizes

up and youve got a lot of angry stranded vulnerable Nazis balling up their

little fists and barking curses in German

Its such a fantastic act of sabotage because Its extremely cheap to

implement its subtle theres no way to see something amiss is happening

as the trucks are being built and it delivers its blow away from the site of

the sabotage and when it will cause the most inconvenience and trouble

Thats some mighty good sabotaging Pierre

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

Keith Fisher

Perhaps the oldest active member of the Naples-Marco AACA club is Keith Fisher

Kathy Hollis reports in ldquoNovember Historyrdquo that Keith was one of the founding

members of the Club back in the early 1980s In 1982 he was the president and has

remained a member to this day So maybe hes not the oldest in terms of age but a

long long time member nontheless Keith and his wife Helga spend their ldquoout-of-

Floridardquo time in North Carolina and he recently sent a photo of the two of them in

Iowa with the Mississippi River in the background He sent the pic to Mal Newbourne

who shared it with me stating they were visiting near Davenport where the ldquoAmerican

Pickersrdquo have their store of ldquobarn findsrdquo ldquoAmerican Pickersrdquo is a TV show by the way

and the guys go all over looking for antiques of all sorts and in places you can hardly

imagine Its a ldquofunrdquo program

Letter from France

In case you forgot to change the batteries in your calendar you may not be

aware that this year is the 100th anniversary of Citroeumln While doing some

research I happened to stumble upon a fascinating bit of wartime Citroeumln

lore It involves screwing with Nazis in a genuinely clever and subtle way

that nevertheless had big repercussions Ill explain

So when France was occupied by the Germans in 1940 major French

factories like Citroeumln were forced to produce equipment for the

Nazis Citroeumln president Pierre-Jules Boulanger knew he couldnt just

refuse to produce anything but he also knew theres no way in hell hes

going to just roll over and build trucks for a bunch of filthy Nazis Pierre had

a plan

John Reynoldsrsquo book Citroen 2CV describes Boulangers sabotage

efforts Of course he instructed workers to set a nice leisurely pace when

building trucks (likely Citroeumln T45 trucks) for the Wermacht but thats fairly

obvious What was brilliant was Boulangers idea to move the little notch on

the trucks oil dipsticks that indicated the proper level of oil down just a bit

lower

By moving the notch down the trucks would not have enough oil but

German mechanics would have no idea because hey the little notch on

the dipstick says itrsquos just fine Then after the truck had been used for a

while and is out deployed somewhere crucial whammo the engine seizes

up and youve got a lot of angry stranded vulnerable Nazis balling up their

little fists and barking curses in German

Its such a fantastic act of sabotage because Its extremely cheap to

implement its subtle theres no way to see something amiss is happening

as the trucks are being built and it delivers its blow away from the site of

the sabotage and when it will cause the most inconvenience and trouble

Thats some mighty good sabotaging Pierre

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Journeys

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry

November History

The history of the Naples-Marco AACA actually begins with another club called

the Royal Palm Region AACA That group even held a National Fall Meet of AACA

September 23-26 1976 at the Marco Beach Hotel

Fast forward to 1981 when Dr Mason Seibel moved to Naples from Honolulu and

had an interest in starting an AACA Region He had been a member in Honolulu

and wanted to start a new group in Naples There is not much history of what

happened to the Royal Palm Region except that it had disbanded and several

members were interested in joining the new group There are numerous letters

to Dr Seibel about forming the new region and copies of all the forms that had

to be completed One of the letters states that the closest AACA Regions was in

Cape Coral The former treasurer of the Royal Palm Region was a member of

Naples-Marco but they had to get Nationalrsquos approval to move the $76 left in

their account over to the new region

The application for the region charter is dated September 15 1981 and is signed

by 15 members of AACA It was approved in Hershey on October 7 1981 A

letter of congratulations from National is in our history The first newsletter was

issued in October 1981 and was called ldquoThe Collectorrdquo There is a listing of

members dated May1 1982 Keith Fisher a former president of Naples-Marco

Region is in that group Keith is still a member 37 years later

Immokalee Florida

Immokalee Road in Naples is the surest easiest way to this rural

community about 40 miles east of Naples Its a pleasurable drive even for

the driver of the most ancient of classic cars but what is there to do once

there So if you are only interested in a day trip you might be somewhat

limited We went recently for a half-day trip and spent time just looking

around at all the fruit and vegetable markets such as this one shown

below It is typical of the many markets you might see in a moderately

sized town in Mexico I lived in Tampico for several years and became quite

fascinated in all sorts of items you could get in these open air store fronts

I suggest Googling ldquoImmokaleerdquo and see what might be of interest You

might be surprisedjust the drive over there is quite a hoot and once there

try out one of the Mexican restaurants Itll be worth the trip You can

even stop off at the Seminole Casino and try your luck at the slots

Our monthly meeting is November 18

Keith Pershing will be doing a talk about his trip to England including his factory tours and the Goodwood Revival

We will also be serving subs that night so come hungry
