Welcome.

What sort of British car? There the Peachtree MG chapter, and there is an atlanta austin healey owners club...

General british car clubs? i'm not too sure.

There's an odd assortment of us that hang out for the donut derelicts car cruise. check out www.panteraplace.com it's every saturday morning.

There's also one at "The Avenue" in Roswell "Cars and Coffee", IIRC, every first saturday of the month.

You have a courier? I had a '64 (maybe 63...) GT, one of the 7 coupes built.

I'll be at donut derelicts with the '67 porsche hotrod tomorrow.

1967 912. Engine burned an exhaust valve, I built a hot rod. it's got a 1996 subaru flat four in back now...been that way for 4 years.

You'll get to use the 911 from september to June around here. it takes a year or two to get used to summer, then you'll never want to go back to snow

Roy,

The Georgia Triumph Association is a great club (especially as you have a Triumph). They're at http://www.gatriumph.com/. They have a calendar on their site listing most of the major events in and around Atlanta. As you'll be in Marietta (as am I) be sure to visit the Avenues (corner of Johnson Ferry and Roswell Road) the first Saturday of each month for a nice variety of classic and custom cars. There's a little contingent of British car guys that regularly turn up there, and you'd be most welcome. It'll be great to see an Elva in the area!
