Miscellaneous Info:
--1957 Chevrolet Bel Air for sale. It runs and drives, has current CA tags but has
basically been garaged for about 20 years (other than short, occasional trips around
town). Two-door. White top, salmon body. Car originally belonged to owner’s
grandfather. It will need the usual for any car sitting that long…brakes, hoses, etc. The
steel and most paint is original. Upholstery and headliner are also original, but it needs
new front seat covers and the rubber floor liner has long since rotted away. The spedo
stopped working last year and owner believes the car has under 180k miles on it.
Asking $17k. Since it is all original and unmolested, prefer the next caretaker do the
same. Call Skeeter at 310/678-6527. He is extremely busy, so it may take some time
for response.
Rec’d. this ad on Nov. 26.
--This auto used to be owned by our very own, Roy Romagno!! A 1979 Trans Am. Roy
bought it new back in 1979 in Houston, TX. He sold it in 1995. It has since had a
restoration. It has a 403ci Olds engine. The link on Craigslist is
http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/cto/4222975391.hotml. Rec’d this ad on Dec. 1.
--Bonnie “Roxy VonCarnage” Holt contacted us on Dec. 2 to let us know that the charity
pin up 2014 calendars will be available Dec. 5th! The cost is $20 donation and proceeds
benefit the Giving Tree Project charity. Calendars will be sold through December 31st,
limited edition while supplies last. Bonnie will have the calendars and can personally
deliver. If interested, contact her at 661/742-6871. She is will the local roller derby
women’s team.
--Update on 30th Bakersfield Toy Run & Food Drive taking place this Sunday, December
8, from Robert Laurin/Bakersfield Toy Run Committee: This Toy Run is not his Toy Run
or the Motorcyclist Toy Run, it is all of our Toy Run. The motorcyclist, Quad Runners,
Car Clubs, all working together to benefit the children and families of Kern County
through The Salvation Army of Kern County. As for our needs to accomplish this task is
participation. I would like to ask all of the members of the BCCC to come on out and to
contact everyone they know through emails, social media, telephone, telegraph, but tell
everyone! The general public is welcome too so even your friends that do not have a
car, quad, or motorcycle are welcome at the Fairgrounds; however, the parade is only
open to motorcyclists, quad runners, classic cars and hot rods, etc. This has become
the largest toy run in the state of CA with Bakersfield donating more than any similar
event to The Salvation Army in the nation! Please decorate your vehicle and join in.
Cars need to be parked (enter south side of Jim Burke Ford) by 10am on Westwind in
order to be able to do the parade to the Fairgrounds. Do not throw candy to the folks
lined up along the parade route (by request of the Bakersfield PD).
