 On June 15, the De Tomaso community lost its most prominent member, Gary Hall. For more than 30 years, Gary Hall and his wife Bev have not only supported us with parts and services but have also been our most visible representatives in the greater automotive community. Gary went above and beyond in the creation of the beautiful and curvaceous Hall Ultra Pantera. His innovations, his contributions, and his smile will truly be missed.
Gary and Bev were married for 58 years. |

Last year with Concorso Italiano seemingly on the brink of failure, a new event arose to replace it. The new event is called La Dolce Vita, which is Italian for "the sweet life".
La Dolce Vita will will held on Friday, August 14 at the Black Horse Golf Course where Concorso had been for the last few years. (www.montereybayconcours.com) The event will have more of a focus on the cars than on the vendors and fashion shows that were at Concorso. There will be a celebration of the De Tomaso 50th Anniversary.

- We switched printers, so as of May the Newsletter and Profiles will be printed and shipped from a new outfit in the Reno, NV area which is close to Newsletter editor Jack DeRyke. The switch should save us some money and improve quality verses the old printer.
- There was a bug Album that caused pictures over 3,000 pixels wide to not load correctly. That has been fixed.
- There is a quota of 100 megabytes per user in the Album. We can increase that limit if you run out of room. Just contact the admin.
