Thanks Nrendra for putting up the pictures,
Indeed it was a very memorable day to see some veteran Padmini owners join FCCH as members and more than that,thye cherished the opportunity to meet fellow Fiatians.
Due to the previous night rains,some members couldnt bring their Fiats,but their wishes were with FCCH.
Highlight of the meet was the presence of Fiat 600 and Hehul from FCK !!
I will post more pics soon.

Later my Super Select and 600 joined the DHAA Rally to be among Studebakers,Austins,Chevrolets,Wolsely and Morris !!!

Thanks Mehul for making up till here, How do you feel? thanks for the stickers apprecate your passion for Fiats.

Folks forgive me for being absent (for FCCH meet) due to some personal obligations and a sincere thanks guys (Ram, Shiva and esp Narendra saab) for picking at 8:00 AM and dropping Mehul at the Hotel (I am sure Mehul feels the same) also for arranging and making the meet yet another memorable event.

Again not trying to contradict your idea though its definately worth trying I feel we should encourage people to share their experiences with these cars in their lives and I am sure that would be a valuable taking for ametures like me. I am dreaming (definately not day dreaming) one day we should be able to attain what we guys have aimed at and achieve the motto of the club.

Hi bala

good to see you online.

Its indeed a wonderful thought which has come to your mind, experirences like these will help us understand the various experiences, challenges and happy moments both which can be an inspiration for us , if at all we face a difficult situation with our Beauties'.

awesome thought again . so who is going to set the ball ralling?
if not then i can start this off?
please let me know if its ok eeryone.

take care and kaape smiling always.
regards

Sushil Narayanan.

In fact the passion of Kale sir is really comendable.

wow!! the pictures of the cars and the people turned out makes me feel really happy and guilty for not being able to make it on that day with my Padmini. Thanks Ram for the pictures. I remember few of them we have met at the Auto Show enquiring about FCCH. "Mehnat rang laiye" (Hardwork reaped fruits) the black car is looking like straight from the past. Next meet you will find some blue shade i.e, my padmini.

Nice to see you Sagar Bhai after a long time.
It was a fabulous meet as we had some veterna Fiat owners sharing their ownership passion and eagerly joined the club.
Fiat 600 was the highlight with its cute presence.
Another star of the day was Mehul with his presence and passion for Fiats.We were glad to have him at the meet.

I agree with ur idea Sushil. In fact from next meet onwards we should spend more n more time with each other, share great moments for each other's cars and try to maintain timing. Somehow Mehul also feel that there was no personal touch because of rally at 1000. I also personally feel that we can not spend much time with each other. I'l request all the members to strictly follow the timings.

Ram garu for BHEL meet I'm having following suggestions,

1. By sharp 0830 ask all members of city to come to fixed spot. (May be Tank bund road, near any statue)
2. 08:30 to 09:30 gather and display of cars there. Also there is 01 Hr cushion for those coming late with genuine reasons.(those who are staying on d way to BHEL need not come back to Tank bund but they can join at Ameerpet signal (again waiting in a group)
3. Then in a group line up drive towards BHEL. By 10:30 Display of cars at some public spot suggested by BHEL team.
4. 10:30 to 11:00 Breakfast session in own contribution
5. 11:00 to 12:00 discussion, introduction
6. 12:00 to 01:00 Drive back towards city again

All members are requested for opinion?

Narendra..BHEL Meet is definitly our next stop after the veterans extended the invitation.How can we refuse?Im not too familiar with the route to BHEL,hence i request you to prepare a map for the drivers to follow from various points.
We need to work out on the Breakfast time as 10.30 would be too late.I will definitly die of hunger !!!
I will discuss with BHEL team and post an update.
FCCH is definitly going places.
