LI GTO Club Tech Days Our club's secretary, Bob Desio, has started a 'Tech Sessions' event occurring on the second Sunday of every month at 1 PM. We will be covering all topics including mechanical issues, body work, part rebuilds and anything that you would like to see. These sessions will be held at the NAPA Auto Parts store located at 310 Maple Ave in Smithtown. The store is located just north of Rt 347 off Rt 111. It is less than 5 minutes from the Paradise Diner where we hold our monthly meetings. Please feel free to email Bob Desio at gto.bob@gmail.com for suggestions of what should be covered, to get on the email notification list for the tech sessions and to volunteer your car for a subject session.
After the success of the first contest, we are back again with the Photo Caption Contest #2. Take a look at the photo above and send us your caption. One random winner will be picked from the entries and will receive a prize from the Long Island GTO Club. Send your entries to President@Ligtoclub.com along with your name, phone and email address.
