<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Snowy Greetings to Everyone,</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I hope you are all staying warm and cozy in your homes today. Since the meeting was cancelled, I wanted to share some club information and news with you.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">We want to welcome our new club member, Doug Vinton and his wife, Layne. They live in Larkspur and own a 1966 Monza Coupe. Welcome to the club and we look forward to seeing you at the upcoming activities, events, and
meetings.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Our treasury has a balance of $2498. The 2018 dues ($25), can be mailed to the club mailbox. Ed wrote an article in the newsletter about dues renewal and membership drive. All dues should be paid by the end of Feb. and
there are some great ways to get a discount on your dues by having a new member join up too.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Thank you to Ed Halpin for becoming the 2018 editor for our monthly newsletters. </p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Dave Wenzlick, of the Cactus Corvair Club, along with several other Cactus members, have cleaned the cut away car up and taken it to several shows in the Phoenix area. It is getting lots of attention and conversations
at the local shows down there. He found <span style="font-size: 12pt;">vintage CO tags on E-Bay and bought them for the car. T</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">hank you to Dave being its guardian for our club and taking it out to the shows to </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">promote </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Corvairs.
He is looking forward to trailering it to Crested Butte for the Tri-State and presenting it back to the PPCC. Donations for the cut away are still accepted and should be directed to Wayne, our Treasurer.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The PPCC car tech library is at the Feasel's garage and available to our members. A list of the books, manuals, and materials is being made. The Feasel's garage has been busy with rebuilding,
repairing, and restoring cars. Dave McGill's car is done and out on the road along with John and Kathy Green's Lakewood. Daniel Teschner's car is currently there. </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Some of the upcoming tech sessions this year will include welding fender panels, lumen measurements, windshield repair, removal, and installation, rebuild differentials, deflashing heads,
rebuild transmissions, both manual and automatic, how to roll a fender, and making LED tailights. Any session you are interested in adding to the list, please let Dave Feasel know. Dave will be keeping everyone posted as to when these and other sessions will
take place.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"> A BIG Thanks Dan Teschner for posting an interesting tech video on diagnosing and repairing sloppy shifting in Corvairs on the Facebook page and to Ed Halpin for posting a great article (sent to him from John Green),
written by Jay Leno, which was in Hagerty magazine to our emails. Even without our meeting, we can all enjoy learning some interesting tech information. </p>
