43rd Annual Concours d’Elegance
Our celebrated Concours d’Elegance will be held on May 14th at the famous
Santa Anita Park. This year we invited the RROC San Diego Region and the
Bentley Drivers Club to join us. Our renowned Concours is the premiere event
of the spring. The diverse representation of cars on display spans the entire
century of Rolls-Royce and Bentley production. Magnificent Pre-War to current
sleek and high-powered motor cars will be on display. Several long-term, award
winning restorations will be on display for the first time.
All members are welcome to attend this spectacular event. Members
wishing only to display their vehicles are more then welcome to do so. Your car
does not have to be judged or be in show condition to participate in this funfilled day. Each exhibited car will receive a fantastic goody bag, participation
ribbon and vintage Concours badge, along with many other marvelous things.
We are offering special pricing for people bringing an additional car with all of
the perks of the first car. Please fill out the enclosed vehicle information card
and send it with your remittance.
Vehicle judging will be conducted as in the past. Exceptional traditional
trophies will be presented to all 1st Place, 2nd Place, and 1st Place Touring
winners. Trophies will also be given for Best of Show Pre-War and Post-War
Motor Cars, and the Jim Toole Brace Award for the member bringing both the
finest Pre-War and early Post-War car (after 1960). We will be presenting the
Winners’ Circle Senior Award for the most outstanding car in the Winners’
Circle. The Winners’ Circle is comprised of all the exquisite 1st Place Concours
winners from last year’s Concours. The People’s Choice Award allows everyone
to vote on their favorite car. We are adding a new judging class called Show &
Shine to encourage people to bring out their daily drivers. This category will be
judged on cleanliness, presentation, and safety issues. This class is designed
especially for those members who have not made substantial improvements
on their PMCs. If you wish to have your car judged in this class you must note
it on your check or vehicle registration card; if not, you will be placed in the
car’s customary class. All 1st Place Concours winners and special award
winners will receive a 5-gallon bucket filled with Mothers® Car Care Products.
In addition, they are donating items for our goody bags. Mothers® continues to
be a generous sponsor to our club, and please support them by buying their
superb products. After announcing the award winners, we will have a raffle with
sensational gifts where everyone has a chance to win something.
Our judges will be meticulously inspecting cars for safety, authenticity,
condition, and cleanliness. Judges are still needed! If you would like to be
part of this gratifying experience, join a judging team and you will receive a
special gift. Members with all levels of judging experience are encouraged to
help. This is a great way to learn about these superb automobiles. If you are
interested, please contact our Chief Judge Dave Dwoskin at (310) 739-9776 or
email him at twotendd@gmail.com All cars must be equipped with a working
fire extinguisher to be judged.
People will enjoy the Sport of Kings while they eat like a king at the lavish
buffet lunch that is certain to please their discriminating palates. Tables,
umbrellas, and chairs will be set-up on the grassy infield so that we can enjoy
our sumptuous lunch while watching the exquisite Thoroughbreds run swiftly
past us. There will be cold soft drinks and bottled water during lunch from 12:00
– 2:00. We will be providing shade tents for your comfort during the awards
presentation. People should also bring a chair to relax on while basking in the
warm California sunshine during the day. Space is extremely limited so please
get your registration in early. Prepare your rolling pride and joy for a delightful
and fun day at the races.

Chairlady’s Corner
Dear Fellow RROC Members,
This picture is from Barcelona, Spain, where bull fighting
is very common. But here we are in sunny Southern California
and I hope you are all enjoying driving your PMCs. Yes,
El Nino came to visit very ferociously on more than one
occasion, but you know we desperately needed that rain and
hopefully you all survived each storm without any leaks or
damage to your PMC or your home.
In March we had two wonderful events. The first
was hosted by John and Caryl Levy and we had the rare
opportunity to visit the Greystone Mansion in beautiful
Beverly Hills. Construction was originally started in 1927
and it is a MERE 46,000 square feet with 55 livable rooms.
Wow - it was quite a spectacular sight to see and our
nearly-full capacity of members had the chance to wander
the halls, see the “murder room”, the enormous kitchen,
the master suite with its own massage room and the hidden
bar in the Billiard Room, which was necessary because there
was “Prohibition”. Then, barely a week later, we nearly
sold out again with our visit to the Mike Malamut’s Vintage
Car Museum in Westlake Village. This very entertaining
event was hosted by Robert and Kathleen Wulf and to my
delight, they were able to arrange lunch at Brent’s Deli,
which allowed each and every one of us to order our heart’s
desire from their vast menu. The number of choices was
huge and the food fantastic. March was a very good month
for Southern California.
May 14th is the 43rd Annual Southern California Concours
d’Elegance, so April is our time to prepare our PMCs for this
wonderful event. We have scheduled a judging seminar for
April 2nd and not only will this be the time that we prepare
our judges for their tasks at the concours, this will also be
the opportunity for you to talk with the Chief Judge and our
Technical Chairman about any issues you have with your PMC
and get their advice on how you should proceed. Be sure
and review the sample judging sheet that is enclosed with
this newsletter. These are the components on which your
car will be judged. Later in April we have a special lunch
planned for the 23rd at the 94th Aero Squadron at the Van
Nuys Airport. I remember when there used to be one of
these restaurants at the Torrance Airport and I have missed
it greatly, so you know I will be there.
I don’t know if you were aware of it or not, but we are
the only RROC region in the United States that can claim
that they have had a concours for its members for forty
three years in a row. That is amazing and I truly want that
tradition to continue for when my grandchildren start to
bring my PMCs, which will belong to them before long, to our
annual Concours d’Elegance. The only way we can make sure
that will happen is to have each and every one of you bring
your pride and joy out on the 14th of May. Now remember,
this year we have a special “Show & Shine” class, which
means your vehicle doesn’t have to be Pebble Beach quality. It just has to be in the best condition as far as safety,
cleanliness, and appearance as you can make it.
I am so very proud of all our members that have
volunteered to host events and help with others. Again, if
there is some activity or event that you want us to include in
our schedule of events, please contact me personally because
I really want to know. I know that some of you would like to
see some more formal events, maybe even black tie, so let
me know your thoughts and we will try and work them out. Drive safely and enjoy these lovely spring months.

APRIL 2016
Planes Trains & Automobiles…Tucked away next to the Van
Nuys Airport, the 94th Aero Squadron is a quiet retreat and a
salute to classic Americana in the heart of bustling Southern
California. Join us for a mid-morning meal at the charming
French chateau complete with ivy covered walls, stone paths,
plush gardens and a dark, but warm, inviting interior adorned with
relics. It offers a unique and memorable dining experience.
Feel like you’re on the front lines as you pass the war planes
and armed forces vehicles parked on the lawn. Hear the buzz
of the planes flying from Van Nuys Airport where there are more
than 700 take-offs and landing every day. Inside this unique
restaurant there are uniforms and wartime artifacts displayed in
the lobby and restaurant.
The Condor Squadron is a nonprofit organization that is
dedicated to honoring America’s veterans and the president of
the group is joining us for lunch. He will give a short, informal
talk on the airport, what his group does and the historic planes
that they own and maintain.
The Condor Squadron has an area adjacent to the airport
displaying a North American AT-6/SNJ Texan — a sturdy twoseater that helped train tens of thousands of military pilots during
World War II and the Korean War. The group and its members
own eight of the planes, making the Van Nuys Airport the site of
one of the largest collections of such aircraft in the nation. After
lunch, we have the opportunity to take a 5 to10 minute drive as a
group to the other side of the airport to see the planes.
We will have part of the parking lot secured for your vehicle
protection. This is a no- host event. Lunch entrees are under
$20 and for those members who prefer a late breakfast, you
have your choice of Classic Benedict, French Toast or Chicken
and Waffles, all of which are under $15. Please email Fulton
at royaltyautobody@yahoo.com if you are interested in joining
us for lunch at this unique venue. Please put “Rolls-Royce” or
“Bentley” in the subject line of your RSVP.

The Cover Story
The RROC So Cal has a second generation of Cervenys with
the membership of their son Michael and his wife Amy. Perhaps
there will be a third generation when their granddaughter Sarah
gets a little older.
Congratulations and many thanks to Gary and Diane, two
indispensable members of our Region.
Gary and Diane Cerveny are the owners of this absolutely
beautiful 1954 Bentley R-Type (B245LYA). They take this beauty
out and about regularly and as a result, won the 2015 Jacqueline
La Rocco Award for driving this 6 cylinder PMC to the most events
during 2015. The Jacqueline La Rocco Award is a perpetual
trophy that was established by our recently deceased member past
chairman Chuck La Rocco in honor of his wife Jacqueline. It is
a huge perpetual trophy that is inscribed with the name of every
winner of the award.
Members of the Month
Diane and Gary have been active members of the RROC So
Cal for 27 years and own a number of other beautiful Rolls-Royce
and Bentley PMCs including a 1920 Silver Ghost, boat-tail tourer,
Barker (102EE) , 1922 Silver Ghost, limousine, Hooper (30RG),
1927 Twenty H.P.,Sedanca de Ville, Hooper (GUJ57) in addition to
their 1954 Bentley R Type, saloon, (B245LYA). They are also avid
collectors of other types of cars and have a fabulous garage at their
home where a number of their cars are displayed.
Throughout the
years, they have
held
numerous
positions within the
region
including
Region Chairperson,
members of the Board
of Directors, Chief
Judge,
Technical
chairperson,
H o s p i t a l i t y
chairperson
and
currently as the Awards chairperson (Gary) and Archivist (Diane).
Diane also co-hosted the Dana Point National RROC meet, and
both regional members and national members still talk about that
National Meet as one of the most successful meets they have
ever had. They have also hosted many successful regional events
throughout the years, most recently the fabulously successful
Petersen Museum event in February that was followed by a
scrumptious lunch at The Stinking Rose restaurant.
Sheldon and Arlene Reiss are the Members of the Month for the
February Petersen Museum event. They have been members of the
RROC So Cal for a few months and have attended several events,
all of which they have enjoyed.
They purchased their 1962 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II from
the estate of a local physician in 1978. It was in fine condition
mechanically but the interior was a bit worn. It underwent a yearlong restoration in the mid-80s and since then they have enjoyed
driving their beauty on weekends and on special occasions. The
current mileage is about 82,000 miles.
Sheldon grew up in Chicago and Arlene is a native New Yorker
and they both moved to Southern California in the 1970s. Sheldon
retired after 35 years from medical practice and he and Arlene hope
to spend their retirement with friends and family (especially their 5
grandchildren) and travel.
They have met many wonderful members in the So Cal region
and enjoy the camaraderie and the sharing of stories and tips
about maintenance and travel opportunities in our PMCs. They look
forward to future club events with their new RROC friends
Welcome to Sheldon and Arlene!

The Annual Awards Event
By Diane Cerveny, Nancy Ratinoff and Karen Perrault
We gathered at the Cabrillo Beach Yacht Club on January 23rd
for an extra special awards event with a luau theme. Joy and Karen
planned an absolutely FUN event and we were feeling slightly guilty
that we could stand on the patio in light sweaters looking at all of the
boats while thinking of all the folks on the East Coast with 3+ feet of
snow!! The guilt didn’t last long however, because we were having
too much fun to dwell on negatives.
Award for the non-Board member that has done the most for the club
in 2015. Gene Towle was awarded the Marji Simon Award for his
outstanding participation as a board member. Congratulations to all
of the winners!
The Members of the Month for January were introduced by
Karen and received a gift. John and Caryl Levy are the members of
the month for January 2015 and we welcome them.
The sun had set by the time we left, thoroughly satiated, the club
dancers beginning to feel the slightest twinges and everyone ecstatic
about the wonderful time they had.
Huge thanks to Karen Perrault and Joy Jacot for planning this
wonderful event.
During the cocktail hour, we enjoyed Vietnamese eggrolls and
mini crab cakes as hors d’ouevres. Everyone chatted and mingled
before the entertainment began. And what entertainment it was
- unbelievable! There were dancers that put on a fabulous show,
performing dances from different islands, accompanied by drums
and the typical music for that island. You should have seen the way
they moved their hips! It would be difficult to move like that on a very
good day!
Ronny Shaver, Dancer, John Green,
Willy Hugron and Tom Warden
Elegance in Motion
Dave Dwoskin was selected to do a dance alone with one of
the dancers, mimicking what she was doing, which was a Poi Ball
dance and demo native to New Zealand. He did a great job and
deserves kudos for his willingness to get up in front of our crowd!
At one point, seven or eight of our members were on the dance
floor, wiggling away, trying to emulate the dance that the dancer was
doing. They were captured on film and are displayed with this article
for your pleasure, and from the smiles on their faces were enjoying
themselves as much as we enjoyed watching their dance skills.
We enjoyed a lovely repast of food with an island theme that
included an amazing fruit platter, a delicious salad similar to Chinese
chicken salad without the chicken, rice with pineapple, pulled pork,
chicken and rolls. Dessert was trays of miniature desserts that were
excellent.
Then to the awards. We celebrated our members who did such a
great job during 2015 beautifying and restoring their PMCs, thanked
all of the 2015 event hosts and announced the board member and
non-board member who made outstanding contributions throughout
the year. Finally, the Cervenys were awarded the huge perpetual
trophy, the Jacqueline La Rocco award, for driving their six-cylinder
PMC to the most events during 2015. John Green won the Most
Improved Bentley and Steve Power-Fardy won the Most Improved
Rolls-Royce. Dr. David Morrison won the prestigious Sam Levin

The Remodeled Petersen
Museum
by Joy Jacot
I like to search for a word or sometimes a phrase - that
accurately summarizes a person,
place or event. In thinking about
the recent outing with the club to
the Petersen Museum, the word
that comes to mind is “flawless”.
From the fabulous cars seen,
the design and layout of the
new museum, the tours and
tour guides, to a great lunch at
The Stinking Rose, to the overall
logistics of the entire event - so
well organized by Diane and
Gary Cerveny - the day was
flawless, and very enjoyable.
stainless steel that is shaped into more than 300 individual sections
of metal ribbon constructed into a single design with amazing
precision. The ribbons feature over 100,000 rivets, a reflection of
the rare riveted 1936 type 57SC Bugatti Atlantic, housed inside that
is said to be the most valuable car in the world.
1925 Round Door Rolls identifier
Of course when you walk
through the doors of the
Petersen, the first car that you
encounter is the now famous,
1925 round door Rolls Royce
Phantom I Aerodynamic Coupe. And while it may be one of the
most uncomfortable, impractical cars ever built, it will certainly
always garner the attention - and of course, it shows great taste on
the part of the Petersen to lead with a Rolls Royce! In a museum
filled with magnificent automobiles, this is no small honor. There
were a few other Rolls and Bentleys on display as well. The 1930
Phantom I Coupe with the Rearward leaning lines - nicknamed
“Windblown” - was part of the Rolling Sculpture exhibit, while the
1938 aluminum bodied Bentley race car by French builder Pourtout
Carrossier was also worthy of note as part of the Precious Metals
exhibit. The three floors have been beautifully divided into eras and
interests, including movie cars, hot rods, historic originals, and this
writer’s favorites - the precious metals. And while I remain a lover
of the Rolls Royce and Bentley motor cars, who can question the
incredible beauty of the amazing Duesenberg and Horch that are
displayed in that same area side by side. There is also a design
area where young working designers are at work, both by hand and
computer, developing our cars of tomorrow.
We also learned from our
very well informed architectural
tour guide of the new plans for
the Miracle Mile district. These
include the conversion of the old
May Co building, across from
the Petersen, to become the
Academy Museum of Motion
Pictures and the upcoming
addition to the Petersen of
the elegant Il Pastaio Italian
Restaurant by the Drago
Brothers by the end of this year.
And speaking of foodLunch! While many of us were
concerned that the garlicy
reputation of The Stinking Rose
restaurant might take us out of
Joy Jacot and Joan Hugron
public commission for a day or
two, we found that not to be the case. The food was delicious, not
overpowering with garlic, but just flavorful, and quickly and efficiently
served. The camaraderie as always, was wonderful.
All in all - a great day at the Petersen! Many, many thanks to Gary
and Diane Cerveny for hosting this wonderful event.
HELP!
Round Door Rolls side view
You could go on forever about the cars in this museum - and I
personally cannot wait to go back for a tour of the vault. But suffice
it to say, it was a great and fascinating display of vehicles in a
wonderful new setting.
Our tour began with an architectural tour. The new museum,
following its $125 million renovation, offers 95,000 square feet of
exhibit space, and will soon include the addition of an elegant new
Italian restaurant, Il Pastaio, by the Drago Brothers. The building’s
new and somewhat controversial design is wrapped in 100 tons of
