1 REBELS AUTO CLUB NEWSLETTER SEPTEMBER 2016 Happy Fall Rebels, Other than a few show-n-shines here and there, the car scene is about over for the year. But never fear for your Prez is here with a garage scene! I will be teaching you all how to clay bar a Vette, owned by my good ole buddy and long time hot rodder Gary Francisco. After a little over spray of black spray paint got on his White Vette it has left a black haze and rough texture on the surface. But after a little clay bar and some elbow grease, it will make the car look and feel like new. At this time there has not been a date set for this event, but I m thinking about mid November so please watch for future announcements. I would like to again thank all those who helped with the cone Races. That money will come in handy to give out to our charities. Hope to see you all at the next meeting at Pizza Ranch!
