***CLUB NEWS***
Spring is just about here! Not that you could tell from the mild winter. Hopefully we will have a much better spring this year than last year’s soggy mess.
A lot of members are starting to use the new Member's Rides section to show off their cars. Check it out. And maybe you’ll show off your ride!
Some of you may have noticed this, but the majority of the 2012 club events have been officially posted! They can be seen here

We are also happy to announce the pre-order for custom NJFBOA License Plate Frames. They are available in 3 color options (silver lettering on a gloss black frame, red lettering on a gloss black frame, and black lettering on a chrome frame). Please see the thread for more details and pricing:

**We have several members working with charities again this month!
*First off, we have a cause that’s close to home – Our very own Unstable Bob Gable’s wife is battling a severe case of cancer. Paul of RPM Resto & Custom has put together a fundraiser where he’s selling company t-shirts drawn up by another member, Scorched SS. They look awesome, and all profits will go towards helping Unstable Bob's family. There will be another run of these shirts, so don’t be upset if you missed the first round! The thread for t-shirt purchases can be found here:
