Old but great news and a new member

The summer of 2015 was so hectic that many of our club activities were never published here.  Instead, our club Facebook page seemed to get most of the attention.  While many members received recognition and awards at many car shows throughout the year, one member's award stands high above the rest.  Fred & Janet Clark's immaculate 1947 Chevy Fleetline has garnered top awards all over the state of Michigan but none were more significant than being selected as a Top Pick at the NSRA Northern Nationals in Kalamazoo in September.  Belated congrats to Fred & Janet!





We recently added a new member family to our group.  Bob & Stacy Jenema of Grant are the newest members of the ClassiX Street Rod Association.  Bob has restored several cars in the past and his latest ride is drop dead gorgeous!  His 396 cu in Chevy powered 1964 Chevelle has to be seen in person to be appreciated.  The candy brandywine paint and chrome detailing has brought home several "Best of Show" trophies this past summer.  Welcome Bob & Stacy!



Some who read our blog may remember our emphasis on a club rule that was established in 2013 when the 6 founding members formed the ClassiX Street Rod Association.  At that time, we chose 1963 and earlier vehicles as the prerequisite for folks applying for membership.  In October the founding members decided to change from 1963 and earlier to 1965 and earlier.  The header on this blog page has been modified to reflect this recent rule change.
