The DOA Expo in
Las Vegas
November,
2000
Despite wide enthusiasm,
only 2 cars caravaned to the DeLorean Owners Association Las Vegas Expo.
Ken Montgomery, James Cooper and his wife made the 600 mile trip from
Northern California. It took 2 stops for gas and a couple of stops for
the drivers to make the journey. We arrived in time to participate in
the opening event on Thursday night. On Friday we caravaned with the group
to Lake Mede for a boat ride out to Hoover Dam. Saturday James went on
the Pahrump Valley tour while Ken stayed behind to tend to a leaking cooling
hose. Sunday James and his wife returned alone while Ken stayed to attend
COMDEX.

gathering
 |
6 owners and
their passengers and 5 cars were able to come to brunch at H's Lordships
at the Berkeley Marina. They have the most amazing brunch I have ever
seen (and sampled)! Thanks Lee for arranging our day.
Everyone had other commitments
for the afternoon so we didn't make it to the Chabot so We'll plan
a special event around this amazing place in the future! |
Club BBQ
August 13, 2000
 |
We gathered on a very warm
August day for a barbecue and pool party at the home of Gary Valenziano
and his family. In these 3 pictures you can see the 7 cars we had
that day (Gary's car is inside the garage, just visible in the first
picture. Behind it is Ken's car. Next to Ken's is Sandy's.> |
 |
Seen here are Rex's, Richard's,
Lee's and Dean's cars |
 |
Same cars, different angle.
We virtually brought the neighborhood to a halt with so many DeLoreans
parked on Gary's street. |
 |
Just to show that NCDMC gatherings
are such a great event, here's Hank and Mimi Breer up from Southern
California. |
 |
Here's Sandy, his wife Cheryl
and their little girl Hallie. Gary's wife explains the finer points
of assembling a Mr. Potato head. |

>Gary is the proud new owner
of a 400 pound bouncing baby DeLorean dealer sign. |
Dixon Car Show
Our second event in 2000 was the
Dixon All-British car show on May 21. 4 DeLoreans attended and we really
baked. The temp was in the mid 90's and the humidity was high for our
area.
 3 of the 4 cars can be seen lined up in these 2 photos. The forth was
on the other side and I didn't get a clear angle to catch all 4 together.
 Mary and Gary Gunderson brought not only their DeLorean but also this
beautiful example of a 1953 Jaguar.
 Here's Rex Little winning 2nd place for his DeLorean.
 This is Gary winning 1st place... for his Jag. I won 1st place for the
DeLoreans 8^).
Our first gathering of the year
2000 was held at the El Torito restaurant in Concord on April 30th.
Despite the
2 interlopers, we had 7 cars for our brunch> |

Here's 5

| Some of the members
gathered around Gary's car to have a look at his voice-commanded GPS/Stereo
system. Pictured are Gary, Bill, Richard, Lee, Rex and Ed. |
 It
was really great to see everyone who came. I wish I would have had
time to talk to everyone more. It was a good start to the season.
Everyone was upbeat and looking forward to future events. Thanks
again! Ken
