VCCA Home Forums General Discussion General Discussions The Real Benefit

A couple of weeks ago I enjoyed the real benefit of this classic car hobby. It’s the great people you meet through Chat and VCCA.

I was in Richmond, Virginia to visit family for a few days. It was a great opportunity to visit Bruce Bugay aka Chevy b in Ashland. We first connected though his eBay listings about 15 years ago when I was starting to rejuvenate my ‘37.

After I realized where he was located I made it a point to visit Bruce when I was in the area. At first it was for parts. Over time the parts became a secondary topic. We would just enjoy talking and sharing experiences. One of our visits included a trip to the Keystone Classic Tractor and Truck Museum in Colonial Heights, just south of Richmond.

This trip was almost all talk except for some reason I did walk away with something I never knew I needed! It had been at least 3 years since we had visited in person.

So if you are not taking advantage of opportunities to meet the people on Chat in person you are missing the real benefit.

Rusty I to enjoyed your visits and have meet a lot of nice people through this club and also just being involved with old Chevys for about 40 years now.
