As a former VCCA member I have 25 years of The "Generator & Distributor" (1972 - 1997) that I want to give away to anyone willing to pick them up in the vicinity of my home in San Rafael.

Oscar,
The magazines weigh about 100 lbs. I checked with Fed Ex and UPS for their least expensive rates. Fed EX will charge about $45. UPS rate is about $53. Let me know if you're still interested.

Hello epi,
Sorry I didn't reply to your first message. I thought it was an acknowledgement from the web master that my message was received. You can pick-up the G&D issues at my house, 93 Trellis Drive, San Rafael 94903. Let me know when you would like to come by.

Hey Oscar! 300 issues of the G&D for free and only $45 for shipping. That was one heck of a deal! Looks like Kepi made out like a bandit on that one.

A lot........especially if you are a newer memember to the club and you are trying to collect all of the back issues.

I would have liked them just to read the stories and learn a little about what was going on in those days with the VCCA. I have a little library at home that I put all my Chevy books in and I thought it would be cool to have them in my library I am starting. Maybe I can get some from you bill and that would be cool. Thanks everyone...Oscar ;\)

42bill,

I'd be interested in helping you out with storage of those 350 issues of G&D. I'll even pickup the shipping tab (one way).

I am new here and I don't know my filler tube from an exhaust pipe!

Hey 32 confederation,

Sorry I didn't see your post earlier about my G and
D's. The problem is they're spead out all over the place. Some here, some there. Anyway, the short answer is I'm probably stuck with them unless I ever get organized and get 'em (or at least most of 'em) in one spot. Thanks for the 'offer' anyway.

As for not knowing the breather pipe from the exhaust pipe, don't feel bad. I'm in the same boat and I've survived in this club for 30 years. Actually it's because of the club that me and my cars have survived!

Bill.

Bill,

The offer still stands even if the G&D's are collected a few editions at a time.

I agree, this site is an invaluable volume of knowledge and experience (all of which I am willing to absorb), it has helped me tremendously so far with my '32 LP.

OK 32 Confederation. Duly noted. I'll let ya know if I decide to get on this. Just don't hold your breath. Sorry, but it's not too high on my list. And the list is pretty long.

Hope you understand....

Bill.
