A scene from the 2012 British Car Open Field at

Round Barn Winery

The 17th Annual British Car Open Field Day was Saturday 8 September 2012 at The Round Barn Winery in Baroda, Michigan.


It was a relaxing, beautiful fall afternoon, sampling great wine, beer or spirIts, listening to live rockabilly music by the “BelAirs” from Fort Wayne and viewing our favorite British cars.


With heavy heart the club has decided to discontinue, at least for now, the annual wine event. The time has come to reevaluate the necessity for this annual fund-raiser, especially in light of the work involved, not to mention the ever increasing expense.


We thank everyone that has attended our annual fall events.  You and your great cars made them what they were --- a success!


Cheers!

Burning Ethanol

While newer cars are built to tolerate burning corn mixed with gasoline , cars of our vintage can be impacted by ethanol. Ethanol can damage various materials like aluminum, plastics and rubber.


If you’re concerned here is a link that may be a benefit: pure-gas.org provides a list of ethanol-free gas stations in the U.S. and Canada.


Included on the page is a link to fuel-testers.com where you can find the state-by-state labeling requirements.
