Presidents Report:

In relation to Ray’s suggestion last month about raising fees for members that don’t attend runs/meetings and are on Historic Registration, I looked into what other Clubs do. Some clubs charge in excess of $300.00 as it is still cheaper than having your car on full registration. I think that is a bit extreme but it gives us an idea.

It was suggested to me on our last run by a member, if anyone would be interested in midweek runs. Some members including me can’t due to working but if anyone is interested to let me know.

Treasurers Report

Balance of account $1,1937.62

Ray mentioned our Public Liability went up $100 this year.

Librarian:

August Turning Wheels is in.

Federation Report

Only just given minutes as I was running late.

Meetings are held every 2 months. Graham is going to try and go to the next meeting, if he can’t Daryl offered.

National Report:

Ray has registration forms for Nelson in NZ and Lake Entrance Nationals. Ray has been looking at road map and spoken to a gentleman that said if you cross across to Geelong from Arrarat it is a lot quicker. Ray suggested we stay in Geelong on the Wednesday night as there is not much accommodation in Queenscliff. Queenscliff is about ½ hour from Geelong.

Past Events:

Drive your Stude Day

McLaren Vale was the chosen destination for this outing. We met at Victoria Hotel carpark, a beautiful spring morning, 6 Studebakers and 3 X cars, 19 members in all. We then cruised to the Almond Train where we were able to purchase all sorts of nuts flavoured with many different combinations of delicious ingredients.

From there we went to Bracegirdles Chocolate house where we had lunch. Some wandered down to the Garden shop to purchase some seedlings etc.

Into our cars again to the Information centre where we could enjoy wine tasting and coffees.

Hudson was able to have his picture taken in an Avanti which made his day and I would like to thank all the members who attended.

Presidents Report

Great to see so many members at the meeting again.

We discussed the half-way meet with the Victorian club and had 8 couples who put up their hands to attend which was great.

I hope that more members who were not at the meeting would consider coming along. We always have a great time and the more the merrier.

We will now wait to hear from the Victorian club as to where they have decided to go.

Congratulations to our junior member Curtis, who has been selected in the SAPSASA hockey squad.

Treasurers Report

Balance of account $1,907.47

Graham received 2 bank account statements, one for 1 cent and one for 2 cents. Graham sweet talked the lady at the bank and she closed both accounts with no account closure fee and transferred the 3 cents to our main account.

Librarian:

Latest July Turning Wheels is in. Also received March & April Turning Wheels.

Federation Report

Graham has ordered Logbooks for next year.

David brought up that the Logbooks have changed colour from blue to fawn. He has also heard that some rules have been changed and filling out the logbooks.

Graham hopes when he receives logbooks there may be a notice enclosed.

National Report:

Ray notice that there is a film preview of the Lake Entrance National. He is going to try and get a copy to show. We would like to get 10 members going to National, that’s our goal. A discussion on stop overs and which way we would like to convoy over to Lake Entrance was had. Looks like we will be going across Ferry and maybe stay at Queenscliff…….not Nightcliff ????

Past Events:

Last Sunday we had a run to the Chocolate Factory at Tanunda.

We met at the Caltex Service Station on Port Wakefield Road on a crisp, calm, sunny morning.

As we drove along the Sturt Highway and branched off at Gumersol Road it was obvious to all what a beautiful view of the Barossa Valley in our wonderful state of SA we were privileged to see.

On arrival we found a table and then had to choose from a varied selection of luncheon dishes.

No one was disappointed with their choice. Vic really got into his chicken wings with Hudson reminding Grandpa he had most of his food on his face.

We then wandered amongst the hundreds of boxes of chocolates on show and for sale.

Some of us even lined up for ice creams to finish off.

We followed Daryl and Maxine through Gawler and made our way home.

To me this was one of the best and most pleasant runs I have been on and must return again in the future.

General Business

Vic phoned our member Steven Langelarr to see how he is after his second knee reconstruction. Steven had recovered well and is already back at work.

Ray asked members if anyone was insured with Shannons and were on limited use Insurance as he was surprised when he inquired about his Insurance, that he wasn’t covered enough and could not find how many days in his policy he was covered for. He asked where he could find it and the girl told him it is not in writing it is just their policy. The insurance he is on now is 2 days a week (104 days a year). They days carry over. He is keeping a logbook in his car to keep track of use.

Ray brought up a very good point at the meeting. He would like members that do not attend runs or meeting to pay a higher membership. He said it is not fair that the same people buy raffle tickets each month to get more money into the club. A lot of members were in agreeance. This will be discussed again.

Cars/Parts

Vic’s car is going “terrific” He is mucking around with gearbox. He needs to get done before end of September when his brother is here. Plus Hunter his grandson is first in line for a cruise.

Peter Lucey has 5 x Hubcaps for a 63. Need painting in reasonable condition, not mint. He will bring a photo to the next meeting if you are interested.

Peter also mentioned that he thinks he has found the original owner of 1947 Starlight Coupe which he has owned for 53/54 years. He believed the owner may have been Roy Sands.

Rex Brown has a Big 6 motor not complete. It is for free or it will go to scrap. If you are interested you can contact Rex direct on 0468 448 375.

Trevor is still having trouble with his Hawk. It still shakes at speed. Bob suggested he could have an air bubble in one of his tyres. All other suggestions have already been done.

Trevor is having trouble with the back window on his Lark. Wayne bought in a part for him and Bob is going to look at it on the weekend.

Past Events:

19^th MAY – JAN AND GRAHAM’S HUMBLE ABODE

Sunday May 19 dawned a warm balmy morning for our club run to Tailem Bend with plenty of clouds threatening and a forecast for rain. It was a great opportunity for Jan and myself to host lunch at our holiday home at placid estates on the Murray River. We set off from our usual spot at the “Top of Taps” and followed our road director Darryl Jones with David Trembath navigating and Maxine relegated to the rear seat. With us was Trevor and Joyleen Hughes, Brenton and Meredith Thomas, Bob and Judy Reischmuller. Lloyd Burns and Michael joined us also which was great.

A nice drive through Clarendon, Meadows, Paris creek and on to Strathalbyn where we were joined at the Bakery by our Bionic member Marty sporting his new hip and soon new knees along with partner Margaret. After Pies and Pasties, well, after all it was 10 o’clock, but honestly girls half of that strawberry cheesecake would have been sufficient. From there to Wellington and across the river on the ferry, showing off our Studes to a large group of bikers, we finally arrived at our shack for lunch.

We were joined there by David Read and Richard Hobby who both live nearby.

Everyone brought their own food and drinks and also supplied magnificent salads to boot. We set up inside as by then the rain had arrived. It was a lovely day with 19 members for lunch and a good chin wag.

Our President Trevor took the opportunity to present 25 year badges to Richard Hobby and Lloyd Burns as they don’t always get to town for our meetings. All in all a great day getting together with our fellow members over lunch.

Graham mentioned how he has his battery on a trickle charger and has never had problems. The day before the McLaren Classic Car Run he pulled out his car to clean it and it wouldn’t start even though charger said it was fully charged. While purchasing another battery he was informed that the trickle charger dries up the water in the battery. When he got home and unscrewed the terminals it was bone dry.

Wayne asked if anyone had heard of Old Farts Garage as he saw a Stude in there. David said it was his. It has been there for a few weeks as he is still waiting for a quote on what needs to be done. Wayne mentioned that he heard from a friend that it is closing down. David will be ringing them tomorrow ????

Presidents Report

I would like to thank Brenton for taking the meeting while I was travelling to the National.

We enjoyed our leisurely 4 day trip to Toowoomba which Daryl organized pre booking our motels along the way. We had an interesting stop at “The Dish” out from Parkes buying some souvenirs. Maxine and Joyleen found a shop in Hay which caused some credit card damage.

The Nationals went well and was good to catch up with people we only see every 2 years.

Lamming’s went on to further their holiday foe a few more weeks and we and the Jones’ got home in 2 ½ days……tired but happy. It was a great trip.

Presidents Report

Welcome to the AGM.

I would like to thank all members who attended out outings this year. It has been great to see so many Studes coming along.

Thanks to Kerrin for doing the website and has been a great help to me over the year, thanks Kerrin.

To Graham who helped with Christmas show and other outings, thanks.

To all those who attended show day it was a great turnout.

To me the Club is more a social club where everything is discussed at our meetings not needing a separate meeting for the committee to have.

Special thanks to Ray Lamming who is stepping down from the position treasurer and vehicle inspector. He has done an excellent job over many years. Thanks Ray, now you and Carole are free to do more cruising.

Our Show Day was a great success with 15 Studes and 1 ex car on display. There was a lot of interest in our vehicles with many people parking their cars and walking through and asking questions about Studebakers.

It was great to have Victorian club members Richard & Sue Salter and Leon Martin with their beautiful restored wagon.

We wish Bob Rischmuller a speedy recovery after his recent operation. Next meeting will be our AGM where we would like everyone to attend and select our new committee. All positions are vacant.

General Business

Graham mentioned the 2019 McLaren Vale Vintage and Classic event coming up on Sunday the 7^th of April. He said it is a great day with lots of cars and people lined along the streets in the town and many vehicles involved. It is worth attending. (Since the meeting Daryl has kindly forwarded the website for this event to me http://www.vintageandclassic.com.au

This is not an official Studebaker run but it would be nice to catch up and show the Stude’s off.

Trevor bought up the TV show American Pickers that was on during the week. The lady is a president of one of the Studebaker clubs in the US and had many cars in her possession. She offered 3 for sale – 2 Finned Hawks and an Avanti. They ended up buying the Avanti and on another pick a Studebaker truck.

Vic mentioned that he had been watching an Australian antique show and a man collected old TV commercials. On one of the commercials started with a car at the bottom of a cliff on fire and then the commercial went in rewind back up the cliff to where the car had started and it was a Lark. He thinks it was a Repco advert about getting your brakes checked.

Daryl bought up how Mr Ed show use to promote Studebakers.

Wayne mentioned a story that was in the 600^th Edition Stude News and if anyone had read it.

Cars/Parts

Trevor had a phone call from a lady wanting him to price her 38 Studebaker in Goolwa. It has been in the same spot for 30 years, no windscreen and upholstery not in good nick. Trevor asked if anyone was interested in coming with him in a couple of Sunday’s time and maybe stop for a coffee afterwards. Let him know.

Ray had code of practice which anyone can download and read from the SA Gov website. He said the rules are pretty simple:

You must be a financial member of a Car Club
You must contain your log book
You must keep your vehicle exemption documentation in your glove box

Nowhere does it state in the rules that you must have a stat dec anymore. Rex said his club still require one but the rules may have been updated since last meeting and John said that the Ford Club no longer require one.

Ray also added that in the code of practice in a roundabout way, it says that most (not all) interstate states will recognize SA Historic registration…….they cover their butts.

Trevor has printed out up to date events from the website if anyone going would like one. Meals etc to be added to website during December.

Ray mentioned that we need 2 volunteers for Business meeting. Ray & Trevor will attend. Judges will be decided at the meet. Donation for their Auction will be a Renmark Polo and car badge. Decision was made to leave Monday with leaders changing regularly so the drivers at the rear don’t get bored.

What a great day. We cruised up to Mt. Barker met up with six Studebakers, even David was early!! and then on to Strathalbyn Oval.

Rex and Liz Brown were organisers being members of the Hot Rod Club as well as Studebaker members so they were already there in their Stude truck, as were

Ray and Carole Lamming in their Mustang.

The weather was perfect as was the condition of the oval, the grass looked as good as a bowling green, so good in fact we were scared to put our umbrellas into the ground.

There were some really amazing vehicles on display about 170 turned up in every colour of the rainbow.

Our vehicles caused a lot of interest especially the two Avantis as many people had never seen one before.

We set up our chairs, purchased coffees or opened thermos’s, good selection of food vans to choose from and plenty of great cars to see.

Also joining us were Vic and Cheryl Samson.

Federation Report

Brenton did not attend AGM due to sickness. After reading minutes from the meeting he mentioned that Club regos have increased by 50% since July 2017. The Federation is putting out a form to find out which Clubs have log books in their possession and how many.

National Report:

Days events are now up on Website. No prices as yet but that is underway. They are setting up trading tables on the Thursday, so we could get here on Wednesday. To arrive on Wednesday arvo we would need to leave Monday morning or we can leave on Tuesday morning and arrive on Thursday like first planned. The first day we would drive 682km and the 2^nd day 671km and the 3^rd day 598km. Can everyone who is going think about which suits them best and let me know next meeting. Another idea I had is we could keep changing the driver leader along the way.

If you start putting $100.00 per week away from this week you will have $3,000.00 by the time we leave to pay for the trip.

Presidents Report

Thank you Brenton for filling in the President’s role at last meeting when I was in Darwin on business.

I still have forms for the Melbourne Concours if anyone would like one.

The Rex Hotel need to know numbers attending our Christmas Dinner on the 1^st December so could members let me know as soon as possible please.

The recent Finnis run was well organised and a great day out driving through our lush green countryside. Thanks Brenton & Meredith.

It was good to see Marty on the run who is experiencing various health problems recently.

I rang Fred Jones who said he was on the mend after spending some time in Hospital. Good to hear as we miss Fred and Betty at meetings and Stude runs

.I rang my old mate David Date who is feeling much better and will be at the next National to catch up and have a beer or two.

Bennetts have a ’56 Hawk for sale L/H drive looking for around $25,000

Past Events:

FINNIS GENERAL STORE

Meeting at the Crafers Interchange at Crafers a number of enthusiastic Stude members were gathering.

Of course the members that live the closest are the last to arrive!

We cruised along the SE Freeway to Hahndorf. The place was buzzing with tourists as they were out in force. Mind you it was a beautiful day and everyone who was out wanted their Vitamin D, big time.

Our first stop was Beerenburg, for some tastings and purchasing. Taste of the day but you had to pay for it was the scrumptious frozen strawberries covered in chocolate. Yummy If you wanted to buy a packet of them try $15 ouch, so satisfaction came at 1.

Daryl bought copius amounts of chocolate, as he could Maxine could not tear herself away from seeing the Crows play, so Daryl and grandson Cooper made the most of eating all the chocolate before they go home.

Under strict instructions from Joyleen, Brenton who organized this run (HAHA) was told not to go too fast. Mind you we are driving V8’ and they need to be aired fast!! So we plodded along the roads, for them to all follow. I am sorry but you must keep to the speed limit either going fast or going SLOW!

We did pull over for the others to catch up, why they just went slow again. I can understand Graham in his 1950 Commander Bullet Nose and with 2 extra people on board, as his was giving them the opulent of a chauffered cruise, to their delight.

We eventually made it to the Finniss General Store, which was delightful with our table ready and once we all paid and sat down our lunch came out. From Warm chicken salads, to burgers we could not say that we were hungry. The look on Judy’s face when her burger came out was priceless, it was enough to feed her for the next few days. Kerry her daughter, who was over from Melbourne helped Judy wrap it up in her doggie back for later.

All in all it was a great day and thank you to Daryl and Cooper, Vic and Cheryl, David, Trevor and Joyleen, Graham and Jan, Marty and Margaret, Bob, Judy, Brenton and Meredith who participated, and our visitors John and Jan and Kerry who joined us.

Great to see Marty and Margaret on the run and seeing how well Marty is doing

XMAS IN JULY

It was a sunny Winters morning when some members were meeting at Adelaide Airport viewing park, David, Rex and Liz, Daryl and Maxine, Bob and Judy, Trevor and Joyleen all driving their Studebakers set off for a cruise around Glenelg then along the beach front to Semaphore and then on to the

Glanville Hotel.

There we were joined by Fred and Betty (also in their Studebaker), Vic and Cheryl, and Marty and Margaret.

The Hotel Staff had prepared a real Christmas table setting, decorations, and a very warm heater all stoked up for us.

We enjoyed a delicious menu of roast beef or turkey with all the trimmings and desert of either berry cheesecake or Christmas pudding and custard.

Tinkling bells getting louder…and Santa arrived, unfortunately his pants dropped to his ankles when he got to the doorway, however he hitched them up and gave boxes of chocolates to the ladies with a ho ho here and there.

(Thank you Curtis).

We had a very enjoyable meal and get together. Thank you to all members who attended it was a great day.

Trevor Hughes

General Business

Due to the small amount of members discussion was about anything. Bob mentioned that he had been watching a movie “The Best You Can Be” and there was a Stude in a shed. While Vic was watching “The Nut Job” with his grandchildren he saw a Studebaker in the back ground that kept driving past. He managed to get a picture of it, which he showed around.

The half-way meet was a great success thanks to Meredith and her helpers. She is a great organiser and makes it look effortless.

There were not many SA members this year however it was great to see so many Victorian members and to catch up once again and renew friendships.

Well done Meredith.

I have spoken to Lloyd Burns, who informed me that Michael is in Hospital. We wish him a speedy recovery and he will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Meredith has been looking into flying verses driving to attend the National and the cost difference. The cost with fying and driving is around the same except with driving you will also have to take extra travelling days into account and for people that still working they would be losing days. Approximate cost per couple including flights/petrol, accommodation, food and spending $3000.00

Past Events:

JAN AND GRAHAM FOALES PLACID ESTATE

Many thanks to Graham and Jan Foale for having our May outing at their holiday home on the River Murray at Placid Estate.

There was a great turn-up of members. We met at the Stirling exchange and headed up to Strathalbyn for coffee, cakes and a chat (some of us stragglers accidently took a different route) then across punt at Wellington to Placid Estate for lunch.

Our ladies supplied a great range of salads and the men took over the BBQ. We then sat on their huge balcony which had been set up with long tables and chairs to enjoy the food, drinks and fantastic views over the river.

A storm was predicted which caused some members to leave their Studes at home in favour of x-brands, however it didn’t happen and instead was a beautifully calm afternoon enjoyed by all.

The outing was well supported by our members and thanks again to the Foales for their hospitality.

Joyleen

Memorial Run with Victoria to Mildura

Eight members of the SCCASA headed to Mildura on a gloomy day. Trevor and Joyleen drove via the Northern expressway whilst Graham, Jan, Brenton and Meredith headed off via the SE Freeway at 9.30am. You were lucky to see the tail lights of the cars in front of you through the densely thick fog, but the faster you went through the fog, it managed to thin out.

Daryl and Maxine had Hawk trouble so it was decided to meet them at Karoonda, which we did. Now there was a threesome. The drive was ho hum as long drives are. Our car the HT purred through the highway and did not miss a beat. The other cars did the same as we arrived to a wet soggy Mildura around 4pm that same day. We met up with Trevor and Joyleen.

Jan,Maxine and I did a spot of shopping the Mildura Central to gather ingredients for the BBQ we were having on Sunday and the morning tea on Sunday at the Merbein Cemetery.

Once we were done it was time for our first engagement at the Eastgate Tavern for our dinner.

We met up with our Victorian members and all the chitter chatter started. The manager of the Tavern made sure everything was to our satisfactory to which it was, a very enthusiastic man made us very welcome.

I am not saying here that all ladies are not special, we are, but there were three of our lady members who have been around the Studebaker movement for many years, before they were teenagers! and it so fabulous seeing them accompany their fathers (all in their late middle years) to this run. I speak of Cheryl whose father is James Quigley, Tina whose father is Bob Godley, and Di whose father is Phil Smith. It was just great to see these senior members come and join in. So, thank you to Cheryl, Tina and Di for accompanying your Dads, it is so special to all of us in the Studebaker family. Tissues now put away I continue.

With day one under our belt and a good night sleep it’s up and adam early for breakfast, itineraries and maps at the ready we now head off to Orange World for a Citrus Tour. Richard had alternator troubles and Wayne’s front grill was falling out so they stayed behind to get these little repairs sorted out. Hunter let the secret out that it was his Nanny’s BDay so Happy Birthday Lesley. Our tour began with an introduction from Lynton on how the process from getting the fruit from the tree to sorting the fruit to sending to market. A demonstration of the old timber sorting machine clunking away, still in good use over many many years. Lynton also demonstrated on how to peel an orange, peel an orange you may say !! yes but with this magic gadget it leaves the whole orange intact with the rind off. Naturally it was a great sales item and I guess most of us bought one for ourselves and one for someone we know. Then our tour with Mario began. The tour was very good but Mario was excellent, he has the gift of the gab. The three little boys Hunter, Peter and Clary just enjoyed the train ride and Mario made sure that they did. A bird in one of the orange trees whispered in Mario’s ear that there was a Birthday on board his train and being of Belgium and Italian origin, he had to stop and we all had to sing Happy Birthday Lesley. A great informative tour by Mario about citrus how to look after your citrus, even the guys have to pee on their trees to help them along. Morning tea of orange cake, orange juice, tea and coffee was served with a follow of tasting of orange blossom honey and marmalade. Many purchases were made. What a great outing.

We then headed to the Dockside Café at the Marina for lunch. Great lunch was had by all. Hunter, Peter and Clary saw big fish in the river by the dock, they were huge carp. Tina and Di found their dream boat to have their next year’s NYE party, hope I get an invite! Even though I did not realize it belonged to Sue Salter!

We all waddled out when finished not wanting to even think of any more food to eat that day.

The next function for the day was the Mildura Arts Centre. A special display on there was the ABC Play School. Showing videos of play school from the 60’s through to the recent days. There I found young Peter Andriske singing along to I’m a little teapot, around the corner was Tina, and Maxine doing the tip me over pour me out routine. The old home really bought back on how spoilt we are today with all our mod cons. A great place for a visit. Well, the real highlight of the day was seeing our member Jan trying to organise our male drivers to position their cars around the fountain for a photo and drone shoot. We know when we organise men our right is their left and their right is our left, well to organise 10 men with right, right, left , left is impossible but to organise 1 woman with right, right, left, left is possible in one move. I laughed until I ached, but Jan got them organized even her husband Graham who had to bring his car to the right, left, left of the fountain to be seen in the photo. Peter a new member for Victoria bought his drone along to take photos which had us all intrigued. It sounded like a huge mozzie. Thanks to Daryl, Trevor, Dave, Peter, Michael, Brenton, Graham, Peter, Mike, Di, and Gordon for getting your cars into place.

Back to our Motel for some free time and more chitter chatter and coffee.

Guess what was next, Dinner. Paris Andriske gave instructions on how the first part of Sunday was going to be run.

Sunday was another gloomy day although it was dry. We headed to Merbein Cemetery to celebrate our late departed member Peter Andriske and our more recent departed members to celebrate their lives with us in the Studebaker family.

Paris gave a brief talk on his life with his Dad and his escapades and had us in laughter. Young Peter placed some flowers on his Grandfather’s grave. Tissues out again! Tea and Coffee and biscuits went down well thanks to our barista Trevor. Thanks to Marie for her home cooked chocolate balls and to others for their contributions. Peter Fitzgerald had his drone out taking photos of the cars as they were parked for a great photo shoot. From there we did our original cruise to the cemetery in reverse and drove back to our accommodation for a BBQ lunch. The SA members got going fairly quickly to get everything organized for lunch, thanks to motel host Phil who primed the BBQ to get it hot for us all the meat was cooked in no time thanks to Trev, Brent and Daryl.

Back on the road again we headed to the Holden Museum . Maxine who is great on her parts recognition put her hand through a wall mounted pockets and feeling what is in them. Between Maxine, Daryl and Dave they got it all sorted out. Joyleen, Di, and myself thought of something totally different! A very enjoyable outing and followed by a coffee.

Bit more free time, shopping or going to the gym, gem display as some of the members did.

Last meal of the evening at the Eastgate Tavern was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Presentation by Vic members to Mike Gardner for all his work was presented and thankyou’s to SA members for putting on a great event.

MCLAREN VALE VINTAGE & CLASSIC RUN APRIL 22ND

Sunday dawned a superb Autumn morning as we stormed up to the top of taps to meet our fellow Studes. Stormed being a relative term, it is uphill. We travelled down the old South Rd amongst many other entrants to arrive at Serafinos Winery where hundreds were already assembled. Lined up for a bacon and egg sandwich but unfortunately there was no bacon! Apparently the ordering was left to a male. That’ll teach em. The paddock filled up quickly with over 500 vehicles gleaming in the morning sun under a clear sky. Two old biplanes doing circuits overhead added to the spectacle.

At 11am we moved out and travelled down the main street of Mclaren Vale, and as in previous years the street was lined with thousands of spectators with many more lovely old cars parked along the route. A very knowledgeable chap on the back of a ute with a microphone had something to say about every car that passed . This certainly added to the events credibility and was a great help to the spectators, especially those pointing at the bullet nose with the all too familiar “what is it ? “

Once out of town we drove to Doc Adams Winery, only 15 minutes away. We shared the shady lawned area with Rileys, Jags and other assorted “British machinery”. The winery provided each car with a nice pack of local cheese, dip, pate and crackers and one drink of choice. Last year we bought our lunch as I recall. We all purchased a bottle of something to wash it down. Maxine and Darryl produced a large fruit platter to finish off.

A lone Guitar player provided unobtrusive background music to add to the enjoyment.

There was plenty of interest in our cars by other entrants and the public. David Trembath attracted extra special attention from two delightful young ladies who insisted on having their photos taken with him and his. He was last seen swapping phone numbers and trying to convince them that the rego on his car “STUD 57” was in fact his age. I’m not sure how that went!!

I think it was about 4 pm when we eventually packed up and headed home, it was quite a warm afternoon but all our cars performed well.

Thanks to Maxine, Darryl, David, Dean ,Shirley and our other friends and family who dropped in to make the afternoon a lovely social occasion. It is a great event to enter, it’s not expensive, it’s not far from home and it has the best exposure to the public of all our outings. It is certainly worth doing.

Before I forget a big thank you to Kerrin for getting our Web site alive and active, not an easy job to do but looks great so thank you Kerrin.

I would like to especially thank Meredith for her valued input and hardwork, also Ray Lamming and his many hats that helps steer the club.

Past Events

Seven of us travelled to Renmark for the Rock and Roll festival. Ray and Carole, Ron (Carole’s brother) Daryl and Maxine and Brenton and Meredith.

Weather was great for travelling. We all met up and decided on what we will be doing on the Friday. Of course if you know us there are is always alcohol and nibbles available. There was a bit shopping on Friday afternoon, coffee etc.

The main day was Saturday where there were market stalls, classic cruise run to Berri for the enthusiasts around 50 cars and a great deal of wandering around and listening to Rock n Roll music, being entertained by the local dancers.

It was a great weekend, but I am sorry to say that is all I have to report as a deal was done that what was said and done stays with those who attended.

Show Day

This year our Show Day was held at a park near the sea at North Haven.

We pitched our Club marquee and set our chairs amongst the lovely old pine trees.

It was expected to be 35 degrees but with the sea breeze and shade of the trees it was quite cool and pleasant.

Ten beautiful Studes and 3 X-cars were parked side by side facing Lady Gowrie Drive and attracted a lot of attention from people and cars passing by.

We welcomed new members Jason, Kelly and daughter Maggie in their very nice Valiant Wagon.

Also visitors, Kerry, Bob and Judy’s daughter who had just flown in from Melbourne to be with us, and Ron and Linda Broadstock past members, in their newly acquired 63 Hawk.

The raffle, a huge tub of car cleaning products was drawn by Ray Lamming and won by Daryl Jones.

We enjoyed picnic lunches and good conversation amongst a great bunch of people.

I would like to thank all members who came along and made it such a pleasant day.

What looked like being a real sluggish day actually turned out to be a very enjoyable event.

The only staters at Crafers Bus interchange were the Jones and Lamming vehicles who thought that was it. When we arrive at the Memorial oval at Strath we were joined by David Trembath, Denis Nitschke and Shirley, Rex and Elizabeth Brown plus our old members Lyn and Ron Braodstock. We then all had a gasbag and enjoyed viewing over a hundred magnificent modified vehicles. Very sorry I left the camera home.

The event is a must for next year so keep the third Sunday in October free as they will definitely repeat this successfully attended event.

PICNIC DAY IN BAROSSA – Trevor Hughes

On a beautiful sunny morning, expected top of 30degrees,

we met on Port Wakefield Road at the Caltex Service Station and cruised up to the Northern Freeway through Tanunda, Nuriootpa to Angaston where we set up in the Memorial Park in the heart of the town under lovely shady trees near a running brook to have our picnic lunch.

Attending were Ray and Carole Lamming, Fred and Betty Jones, Bob and Judy Reischmueller, David Trembath and Bette, Brenton Thomas, Lloyd and Michael Burns, Trevor and Joyleen Hughes.

Luckily for the rest of us, the only person the mosquitoes took too was Ray Lamming. Poor Ray was icing his lumps down and had to sit in the sun.

Studebakers in attendance were, Brenton’s Daytona, Bob’s Lark, Fred’s Hawk, Lloyd’s Lark, Trev’s Avanti.

After lunch we travelled to Laughing Jack Winery at Marananga where the owners Shawn and Briony Kalleske gave us a tour of their winery, told us their family story and history in the area going back to the mid 1800’s. Shawn explained about the growing and blending involved and we were able to taste the many varieties they produce. It was very relaxed and enjoyable.

Many members bought and took samples home.

After taking some photos of our cars we meandered home after a very pleasant outing catching up with our members.

Thank you to Trevor and Joyleen and Kerrin for the report and photos.

Thanks to the members who are participating in the runs, sorry we could not make the last run Drive Your Studebaker Day as Meredith needed some RnR and we decided to run away to Mansfield to her brother. Alas he got the flu and we drove home on Drive your Studebaker Day. We are going to be a little detained for a couple of months as we prepare Meredith’s Mum’s home for the realestate market. As we are the only one’s here we have an abundance of work to do. If we can make the runs we will come but we are on a time schedule.

Thank you to Ray and Carole, Trevor and Joy for organizing events and making them very successful.

PAST EVENTS:

DRIVE YOUR STUDEBAKER DAY SEPTEMBER 10TH 2017

A group total of over 1500 Kilometres was achieved by the members of the S.A. Club who drove to Balaklava to celebrate “DRIVE YOUR STUDEBAKER DAY”. The weather gods were on our side and the spring sunshine was very welcome after a very cold winter. The five beautifully presented Studebakers two GT’s a Silver Hawk, Lark and a Bullet nose received heaps of attention at all our stops and along the highway

On our trip we finally got to see Vic who is on call at all times for rail traffic direction problems. SUNDAY morning no less .A truck carrying chickens had missed an S turn and had written off the train stop lights at an S bend between Two Wells and Mallala and our man was supervising a brand new set of lights. We can finally believe all those apologies now. Well done Vic!!

Balaklava is situated nearly 100 Kilometres north of Adelaide and is a very productive farming area. The Area was a major influence in the manufacture of all farm implements during South Australia’s early settlement and farming history .The Museums we visited in the town are a tribute and guide to “A COMMUNITY AT WORK”. All the history and I mean all the history is available and the Urlwin Park Agricultural Museum is a showcase for Balaklava-made collection of horse drawn transport and machinery.

Norma our host helped us view all manner of sheds with the town history and we were lucky to see an elderly retired farmer” driving” a tractor towing a farrow churning around a paddock. A real feat as he was standing on the farrow equipment controlling the tractor with ropes .It was similar to a man driving a team of horses and a different way to display your restoration.

We also had a poker run and a pair of Kings picked by Jan Foale was strong enough to win the Bubbly Red. Well done Jan.!!

Thank you to the Foale ,Hughes, Jones, Rischmueller and Trembath families and the Red Mustang for attending the Drive Day .Also thanks to Irene and Geoff Dawson foe the help in organising the day.

The locals had obviously heard all the robbery jokes as all volunteers were retirees. Balaklava thank you.

As you are aware Marty lost his home due to an unfortunate fire. I discussed with members of the Committee that we donate a gift to Marty to help him buy some essentials for living. This was eagerly agreed by the Committee and the members.

Marty responded:

Thank you to members and committee for your kind generosity.

I have no intention of leaving the club even though I have lost some of my Studebakers, I feel that I have a role to play in my club and I look forward in attaining another car, being of use and help to you all. Thank you to Margie whom without her help I do not know where I would be.

Thank you for being friends

Marty

Attending were Fred and Betty Jones, Graham and Jan Foale, Daryl and Maxine Jones, Brenton and Meredith Thomas, David Trembath, Anthony, Kerrin and Curtis McMahon and Trevor and Joyleen Hughes.

The meals were huge and varied, we were spoilt with choices. David even ordered a Vego Breakfast and added Bacon, not sure it would still be Vego Breakfast?

Four Studebakers and an X car that journeyed along as far as Moana then back along the seafront through Seaford to Noarlunga Bakery where we again lined up for more coffees.

The cars looked great and varied, a Bullet Nose, Hawk, Avanti and Silver Hawk and received many admiring glances. It was a lovely morning catching up with fellow members and I would like to thank you all for coming out and joining our outing.

News just In: I received a phone call on Wednesay26th July from Marty Mardiste letting me know that he had just lost everything, his sheds, his home due to a fire that started in the back shed. Marty and Margaret were asleep when Margie’s son Corey was leaving his house in the early hours of the morning for work and noticed red embers flying across the road. He used his hose to no avail then started banging on the door to wake Marty and Margie to get out. Which they did and are ok.

Being the quiet man that he is made all the news stations local and interstate.

As quoted from this 80 year old gentleman” The fire is a bit disappointing but life must go on. Whatever is – you’ve got to make the best of it and take a new direction. Travel is now on the agenda with Margie”

What a great attitude to have and I for one will learn from it.

Thank you to all our members who have either contacted myself or Marty who have offered assistance in any way, Thank you to you all.

PAST EVENTS:

Christmas in July Outing

After attending Wednesday night’s meeting and noticing all the absentees with various stages of the flue, I did not expect our Christmas in July to be successful.

However apart from phone calls Graham and Jan, Marty and Margaret who were still quite sick the others dragged themselves from their sick beds and were able to join us on our outing.

We commenced from Semaphore at 11.00am and cruised along the seafront and back to the Glanville Hotel for lunch.

Several of our Studebakers parked out front of the very old, historical Hotel and made a very impressive site in the glorious sunshine.

We sat around a long beautifully set Christmas themed luncheon table (thanks Sue) and were fed a delicious lunch of roast beef or turkey with all the trimmings, followed by plum pudding and custard or cheesecake, strawberries and ice-cream.

A very short, stout Santa delivered boxes of chocolates to the ladies and looked very cute (thanks Curtis you did a great job) and was caught sitting on Meredith’s knee instead of the other way round!

A very well fed crowd enjoyed themselves and had a pleasant time. Thank you for attending.

Get well wished to all those who were unable to attend and we hope you are better soon.

Bon voyage to Carole and Ray Lamming who are off on a romantic Hawaiian cruise to celebrate their Golden Wedding Anniversary, congratulations to you both.

FOOTNOTE:

Congratulations to Jim Quigley on obtaining Life Membership, well deserved too.

Marty reported about the press release from the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure new code of practice (A 90 day conditional registration scheme for Historic, Left Hand Drive and Street Rod Vehicles. Effective 1 July 2017 for more information please see our web site. If you require a print off and posted to you please phone Meredith 0412 985 209

Dated 12^th May 2017 from the Government of South Australia Department of Planning Transport and Infrastructure

CHANGES TO THE CONDITIONAL REGISTRATION SCHEME

The SA Government has approved changes to the current conditional registration scheme for historic, left hand drive and street rod vehicles.

These changes aim to remove red tape to allow more classic car lovers to enjoy their hobby out on the road, while also making the scheme more nationally consistent. These changes will come into operation on 1 July2017.

The approve changes include the following:-

Allow vehicles, modified from their original design, to enter the scheme. This will provide flexibility to allow owners to improve the ride, handling and safety of these classic vehicles, as well as cosmetic enhancements. The registration scheme will no longer dictate the types of modifications permitted, merely remove this requirement altogether.
Move away from a fixed cut-off date of 1979 to a rolling 30 year vehicle age for eligibility to enter the scheme: for both right hand and left hand drive vehicles,
Make changes to the Code of Practice to decrease the necessity for motoring clubs to undertake vehicle inspections: reducing the administrative burden of the scheme. This will remove the need for both initial inspections upon scheme entry and all 3 yearly inspections. However, in all cases, there will remain the ability for the Registrar or motoring clubs to request vehicle inspection on an as-need basis. This will enable clubs to uphold their constitutional values.
Remove the need for annual statutory declarations.
Reduce limitations which ban left-hand drive vehicles with safety improvements, such as updated braking systems. This will allow modifications to LHD vehicles and will treat them the same as RHD vehicles currently on the road.

To find out about the current conditional registration scheme please visit sa.gov.au

NB The onus is always falls on the owner not the club they are associated with.

Ignorance is no excuse – so please do the right thing. If in doubt contact Marty Mardiste or Ray Lamming for the correct information.

BUSINESS ARISING

It was bought to the attention by Trevor Hughes that “ why are other states including their minutes in Stude News?” when reported to the meeting after the National Meet 2017 that minutes were not going to be included, it was going to be more of social news and information.

NB: Good item of which the committee had no answer!

Discussion from the members who do not have access to “Internet Technology” wish to have minutes inserted into Stude News.

PAST EVENTS:

25th June

National Motor Museum

Met at Bunnings – Parafield Gardens on corner of Main North Rd and Kings Rd, at the front of the car park at 10.00am were Bob and Judy, Daryl and Maxine, Ray and Carole, Trevor and Joyleen, Brenton and Meredith. To farewell us off was new Granddad Steve Langelaar. Congratulations to both you and Sue and a new great grandson to Judy Norton and the late Cyril Norton.

Heading off towards One Tree Hill, then through to Kersbrook. The scenery was quite delightful green pastures with stock grazing. Remains of what was a fire last summer with new growth on the trees. We took an extended drive across to Williamstown, great scenic route lopey roads not many twists and winds just a comfortable cruise for the classic cars.

Our cruise was for about an hour and we then arrive at the National Motor Museum. We were able to park on the grounds with easy access by one of the staff. She was quite taken with our car Daytona 64 Studebaker as she named her son Daytona. She had not seen one before and Brent informed her that ours was the only one in the state. Once we all parked we headed indoors as it was quite a bit warmer.

The day turned to a constant sprinkle of light rain and quite a cool breeze blowing from the south pole. Joining us at the Museum were Marty and Margaret who came up from Goolwa, quite a drive, but that is what our members do drive and cruise.

We all wandered around at our leisure and then met up at the coffee tables supplied indoors. Those that bought their lunch ate it while others went off to buy their lunch. All in all everyone was very comfortable.

It took a couple of hours for more to have a good wander around, listening to media that was presented in a couple of places in the museum.

We listened to the Bush Mechanic exhibition showing their ingenuity on getting out of a tight fix in context of Warlpiri storytelling, music and art and wider issues (motoring and non motoring) affecting Aboriginal Australians.

A couple of Bush Mechanic cars were on display in other words very basic quite a lot of the car had disappeared, no roof, no seatbelts, no boots, in fact it was air conditioned 24/7.

Once again we seemed to meet up again after our wanders quite a relaxing time.

It certainly was worth the trip to the National Motor Museum, we had not been here for quite a few years.

Thank you to the members who attended it makes organizing a run worthwhile, hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Brenton and Meredith Thomas
