SVBCC Lunch / Fine Metalworking Presentation at Wood Grill, Harrisonburg
2025-07-26 12:30 - 14:30 | The Wood Grill, Harrisonburg, 1711 Reservoir Street, Harrisonburg, 22801, United States
Club VP Bob Lasater has put together another “Occasional Lunch Get-Together”:
“On July 26th, longtime SVBCC member Paul Wilson will give a talk/slide presentation showing the development of his metalworking skills. He began with aluminum, later found that steel worked better for his purposes. He formed the shapes over a solid buck, then wood frames, then steel rods, making body sections for a Lotus Eleven, an Amilcar, and finally several Alfa Romeos. He works with relatively simple and inexpensive equipment, similar to what French and Italian coachbuilders had when these cars were originally built.
Please RSVP By Monday, July 21 to: rlasater2274@gmail.com. I need to give the restaurant a head count – maximum of 50 people.

Cruise-In At Merrie Mill Farm & Vineyard, Keswick
2025-09-14 12:00 - 17:30 | Merrie Mill Farm & Vineyard, 594 Merrie Mill Farm, Keswick, VA, 22947, United States
A Preview Of the Merrie Mill Farms 5th Annual Vintage British Car Show by Dave Eames:
Since I have come to know Guy Pelly, an Englishman and co-owner of the Merrie Mill Farm and Vineyard, I have sponsored every one of these events since they started in 2021. Following each of these car shows, I meet with Guy and we review what went right and what could be improved. So after last year’s event I asked several of our members for their comments and two areas of improvement were noted which both related to the lack of food and music “Britishness”. I therefore recommended that Guy invites “The Pie Guy” and “Local Vocals” and this year he has managed to secure them both. Shirley and I have sampled The Pie Guy’s pies which reflect his training when he worked at a bakery in Australia (a former British Colony!) We have also seen Local Vocals on numerous occasions; they play music from the 60s & 70s and will be the best band this British car show has seen so far! Check out their website for a sample of their music.
A few days ago, Guy emailed me this flyer advertising the event. I think we, as a club, should continue spreading the word for Guy and copying it to all of our local Virginia British car clubs…I will provide an event update and a reminder in the August Newsletter.
