See the web site for leadership and event information at jgclub.org Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Page 2 rockymountainjaguarclub.org Many RMJC members attended the memorial service for Pat Grossman at the Forney Museum on Sunday, March 19th. A large gathering of family and friends recalled past days with Pat. She was such a fun, energetic, witty, and intellectual person. People just gravitated to Pat. It was interesting that Pat’s daughter Shawn reported that Pat “collected people.” All of us who knew Pat were indeed lucky to be in her collection. We will miss her always. Thank you Bob, Shawn, and family for sharing Pat’s commemoration. The May 17th Dust-off drive planned by Dwight Eisnach and Harry Fegley promises to be one of the best. If you have not sent Dwight your check or registered online, please do so soon. Checks should go to Dwight Eisnach, 6337 S. Wolff Ct, Littleton, CO 80123. Please send your check now so it arrives before the May 8 deadline. It will be a fun time for all. Keep your fingers crossed for good weather. Cyndi Mumm needs your help with the Breckenridge Concours. Specifically, she needs resort room reservations made soon. We have a minimum guarantee on 30 rooms. The contract says we can reduce the number of rooms slightly so we need to know right away if you are coming to the concours June 26-28. But to do that she needs your Beaver Run reservations made soon so she can adjust the contract if needed. If we leave the contract as it stands and do not fill all the rooms, then the club will have to pay for them. Register for your room by going online to rockymountainjaguarclub.org and click the Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 left tab for 2015 Concours, and within the concours text is a link that will take you to Beaver Run Resort reservations. Or, you may call Beaver Run Resort at 800-525-2253 and ask for the Rocky Mountain Jaguar Club special rate. You’ll probably want to ask for a room in either Building 2 or 3 as they are closest to our activities. A big “thank you” to Frank and Jean Oakley for hosting the annual garage day and new member orientation on Saturday, April 25. Thanks Frank for helping me with my windshield wipers! I didn’t realize that their house sits right underneath the Castle Rock. Looking from their back deck you just look up and there’s the big rock. Thanks also to Gordon Kenney for putting together an excellent and updated presentation about the club and all the activities. Everyone who attended had a good time and as always there was plenty of good food and drink. Remember that if you didn’t make the Judge’s School this month, you can still attend the May 9th Judge’s School at Club Auto, 11100 8th Ave. Please RSVP to Gary George and bring $5 for the new book and $5 for the pizza and beer. Starting time is noon. It’s hard to believe summer is upon us. On June 2nd the RMJC Board Meeting will be at our home in Windsor. We’d love to see more than board members so if you don’t mind the drive north please join us. For directions and RSVPs please send an email to me.

We are still welcome to this years event but it happens in Snowmass. See their webpage for more details. Chieftain of the Colorado St. Andrew Society, Don Lowe, said he is excited about the move to Snowmass as a way to further the Society’s mission of reaching out to promote the Celtic arts and heritage. “In Snowmass, we have the opportunity to reach an entirely new group of people,” he said. “We hope all our traditional friends from the Front Range will come to the Festival, and even spend a few extra days in the Colorado mountains, enjoying one of the most beautiful places in the world. “ For more information, see www.ScottishGames.org Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Page 5 rockymountainjaguarclub.org Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Page 6 rockymountainjaguarclub.org Mark your Calendars Now!

Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Page 12 rockymountainjaguarclub.org Pat Grossman’s family had a beautiful “Celebration of Life” in Pat’s honor on Sunday, April 19, 2015 at Forney’s Museum. It was the perfect setting; it would have made her very happy. Bob’s son-in-law Kurt MC’d the event and did a wonderful job. Bob, Pat’s daughter Shawn, son-in-law Bo, Bob’s daughter Caryl, and son Ben (through a letter read by Caryl) and Pat’s ex-husband John, all painted the picture of how very wonderful Pat was (we all already knew this) it was a wonderful tribute to Pat and her life. One of the most memorable tributes was that Pat was a collector of many things but her favorite was her collection of people. It is so true if you knew Pat you knew she loved people and she did collect an eclectic group of people. There were nearly 300 people in attendance at her Celebration of Life so that gives some insight as to the kind of person Pat was. Her children talked of her encouragement to follow their dreams. This was not only true of her family but also of her friends. She was such a kind person and she loved meeting new people and finding out about them. In Pat’s honor be sure that you love your family dearly, and make sure that you collect people into your lives and enjoy every day. Her life was too short but she lived her life fully. She loved doing unique and usual things; she loved her family and friends and she was loved very much in return. This is all any of us can ask for in our lives. Deanie K. Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Page 13 rockymountainjaguarclub.org People often try to tell me what their car is worth when I am doing an appraisal. "I saw one 'just like it' on TV and it sold for". Don't take the broadcast prices for real or even realistic. Yes they can give you an idea of trends in the marketplace but they are often not realistic. First they are often paid by people who deal in a marketplace that most of us only wish we could. A friend of mine who is a well known magazine writer and appraiser said he recently spent a harrowing week with a client in Arizona who was determined to buy a car. The man is not a car guy and knows next to nothing about cars. He kept trying to bid way over value on cars that just caught his attention. My friend didn't want him to get taken even if the money didn't mean much to him. They went out to dinner, the dinner not including the several hundred dollar bottles of wine was $700, I think for 2. I have watched really pedestrian cars go for huge bucks because someone wanted that car for whatever reason. They will probably never recover their investment but they are not spending the rent money. Cat Tales May 2015 Volume 48 Issue 5 Sometimes the auctions do tell us the trend in the marketplace other times they just tell us about what people spend their money on in the heat of the moment. I am frequently surprised about the value of cars that I appraise sometimes I'm high other times I am way low, that's why I research the cars that I appraise before I put my name on a paper or even venture an opinion. I am just finishing an appraisal on a Mustang Mach 1 that I initially thought would be about $70,000. in the current market. I nice chunk of change for a car that sold new for under $3500. I was wrong. The car appraised for $100,000. Only a small error. I have also seen many cars that I thought were worth a lot that had very small value. If you really want to know what your car is worth hire an unbiased third party to appraise it. Don't always look for the low bidder. Look for the most qualified, avoid the one who says "how much do you want it to be". They probably know less about the car and the market than you do. Page 14 rockymountainjaguarclub.org The facility at Club Auto in NW Denver is a delightful place to visit any time but provides a great backdrop for our annual Judges School. The main showroom is filled with interesting and valuable cars parked on the carpet and the variety is truly impressive. No matter what your interest in cars might be there is probably an excellent example on display. They provide us free use of the facility and we set up at two tables in a lounging area. The adjacent kitchen was useful as we ordered in Pizza and Gary had provided beer for the group. The schools this year are especially important as there have been many changes in the JCNA rule book and Steve K. had been a part of that updating process at the recent AGM. One change that affects several of our members is that some of the classes for judging that usually had very few or no entries have been combined. Now when Frank S. Shows his “S” type he will be in contest with various other models and will have to work harder for the coveted “first place” in class. The changes were so numerous that Gary and Steve had printed up totally new judging books and the previous copies were discarded. As usual, Gary led us through the judging manuals and elaborated on some of the points that were often poorly understood. Several discussions arose in how to judge various details on the Jaguars. Another change in the JCNA judging standards is that all JCNA sanctioned Concours must use “certified judges”. Attending the classes, passing the examinations and judging Jaguars at least once every three years are the steps to be certified. The next judging school is May 9th at noon and again its at the Club Auto. It will finish up going through the rule book but will mostly be the taking of the exam. The test is multiple choice and written; it’s an open book test so a participant learns a lot just by going through the testing procedure. Be sure and attend the 2nd school if you missed the first and if you need to renew your testing. As always, contact Chief Judge Gary George if you have questions.

It was scheduled to start at 10 am and the group slowly gathered. Dave Reed came first then Gordon in his E-Type. Gordon checked the operation of its air conditioning system and found that all the parts operated but the air flow wasn’t very cold; he will add refrigerant to see it that makes it work OK. Then Jonathan and Sara Galassini arrived in their very black XKR coupe and he proceeded newer BMW’s have no oil dipstick but a dashboard information system can be used to determine oil level. A long Subway sandwich was picked up and we had a light lunch around 1:30. After lunch the event shifted to become the New Members Party. By 3 pm several others had arrived including Dave’s wife Patti and Rene Schaer came in his 90 XJ6 Majestic. Long time members Jackie and Brain Redrupp, Vince Lane, Dwight Eisnach, Deanie and Steve Kennedy and our President, Frank Sullivan all arrived. This second group also brought food and drink and more eating was done throughout the afternoon. to remove both front seats to make repairs on the seat control module mounting brackets. Around noon Alex Rubin drove up in his new BMW series 4 sedan/coupe and he and Frank did a 1,000 mile oil change using Franks lift. These Around 3:30 Gordon set up the projector in the living room and presented a 70 photo Power Point show detailing the organization of the RMJC, its officers and its relationship to JCNA. Other slides illustrated the many events the club conducts. Afterward Frank Oakley helped Frank Sullivan put new windshield wiper blades on his S-type. By 4:30 the weather was deteriorating and the group slowly disbanded. A special thanks to Jean and Frank for hosting TWO events in the same day!
