Hi there! I see that according to the "Where Are They Now" list on the website there are about 30 Bricklins in the state of Arizona (at least that BI knows about).
I talked to Herb Grasse (who lives in Scottsdale) a couple of weeks ago about a post he had on this forum a few years back, about forming an AZ Bricklin Club. Herb said he was still interested! I also would be interested in doing something like this, or even just a few of us getting together informally would be great.
Are any other Bricklin owners out there who would like to get together somewhere in AZ?
Thanks, Daniel

FYI - BI had listings for 10 unique e-mail addresses - one of which was yours and one for Herb.
I sent an e-mail (blind copy) out to a total of 8 other owners in the database on your behalf. (You should get a copy.) 3 of the addresses had immediate delivery errors.
BTW - There's no reason you need to duplicate this Forum. We can certainly make an additional Forum section for your use if you like, or just post as normal here. |

I appreciate you sending out those emails Michael. That's above and beyond! By the way, I would never think of creating a new forum for local members. I am trying to bring the AZ people together, not separate them from the mothership! Besides, I get the impression that AZ Bricklin owners tend to be quiet and keep to themselves. Hopefully someone will prove me wrong and speak up!

Not a problem. Anything to help!
You might also want to touch base with Kevin Hand / California Bricklin Owners. He's having a Western Meet in Tucson in September ... http://www.californiabricklinowners.org/news.htm

There will be a meet hosted in Tucson by Ron & Margaret Jackson.
I will post more details to this site later. The information was recently published in the April 2007 Brickline.
For now, use the following hyperlink to check on developments:

Kevin-
When I found out about the Tucson meet coming up later this year, I actually set a goal to get VIN 1789 ready by then (it had been sitting for 19 years). I am about an hour from Tucson, so it really is pretty close to me, for a change. Certainly this will be much closer than the meet in PA in 2008 (!), partially with the DeLorean community (which my DeLorean club and I are helping to plan, btw).
Thanks, Daniel |

Daniel,
Hope to see you in Tucson then! Noting your car collection, you could have lots of funs pointing out to the "un-learned", the differences between the Bradley, DeLorean, & Bricklin. I had someone ask me if my car was built on a VW chassis... ;-( |

Actually, the only response I got was from the previous owner of my car! He didn't know it was me when he emailed me though. It is possible that since summer is now here (over 100 degrees every day, this past week or two) that people are laying low - our cars might melt, ya know. I did find another Bricklin owner in AZ though, so they are out there, and I won't give up!

Isn't there a guy in AZ that repairs or used to repair Bricks? Thought his name was Kim near Lake Havasu. He might me able to put you in touch with some AZ owners Thought he was responsible for this restoration

That would be Kim Ian Madsen I believe. Was a BI Member until about 10 years ago. I googled him and found ... http://www.corvetterestorationaz.com/aboutus/
Might be worth a try ... |
