Timor Hall 2017

Written by Felix Furtak. Posted in Timor Hall

It has been a good Sunday. The Cape Lancia Club was well represented. The weather was perfect and we could display cars from the 60ies up to the 90ies.

Our youngest member Lisakhanya Fiona is running the show. She shows you the lineup of the cars:

We are very happy that Reuben has managed to recover the 8:32 which was lost after the last owner passed away.

It just had a full service by the Scuderia Ferrari.

Next in line is Adriaans Fulvia, beautiful as ever:

Waheed brought his Beta spider, a well kept example:

And Ronald brought his well known Delta Integrale:

Gary was supposed to bring his Montecarlo, but the gear linkage broke, so Ronald brought his Delta HPE to fill in. this car is currently on the market.

A big thank you to the Club members and their friends and family.

Ronald and Reuben have volunteered to look into the printing of shirts and other other promotional material. this is good news :) For next year we would like to have a Lambda, a Astura and a Flaminia, if their owners can be so kind and volunteer..

The Timor Hall show was a full success, as a whole as for the Cape Lancia Club specifically.

We could fill up all 5 designated spaces, and went out to display a Saloon line-up, consisting off:

1) Fulvia GTE from Felix

2) Trevi Volumex from Ernst Konradi

3) Delta Integrale 16V from Ronald Cloete

4) Thema LX from Johan du Toit

5) Kappa Saloon from Reuben Isaacs

Thank you fro bringing your cars around. We also thank Craig Helstrip for bringing the Gazeebo and Michael Baker for giving a helping hand for the duration of the day. Most of all we thank Khungeka for food and drink and the kids for showing us the way forward.

For 2016 we need some kick start. Michael Baker has kindly volunteered to take over club activities. I hope he will be able to run the communications department, as I do not have the resources anymore.

There are more events to come this year, which we would like to participate. Some branding would be good, to have our own gazeebo with our name on as well as caps and T-shirts. To achieve that we would however have to deviate from the "free for all" model, an obstacle where others have failed before. Give you opinion if you would be prepared to contribute to this project.

We do need a chairman, an accountant, and events cum communication man/woman. In order to get myself out of the picture, I would like members to interact directly. Please advise if you object to your contact details being passed on to other members. If you don't, it will be assumed that you agree. Is it worth the effort for Lancia ? Look at the international market: apparently it is :)

Cheers

Timor Hall 2015

Written by Felix Furtak. Posted in Timor Hall

The Presence of the Cape Lancia Club on this years Timor Hall show was a full success. That is thanks to the efforts of Craig, who sponsored the Gazebo and made a huge effort to bring his Fulvia subframe and transported the table and chairs, Ronald and Michael who acted as drivers for both both the Gamma and the Montecarlo, and Adrian who brought his beautiful Fulvia coupe. It was surprised how much interest there is in Lancia despite the negative press about the marque. Both the Fulvia and the Montecarlo were much admired, however the Gamma also raised attention, for many people it was the first time they had seen one.

It was decided to re-introduce Peter Immelmans well known workshop meetings, the first one being on: 21.02.2015
