Is anyone here a member of DOA?

Hi Dennis,
Vol. 26, No. 2. They must have felt bad and sent them airmail since I usually get them a month after the Euro guys get their's.

P.S. I have extras of the last three issues if you missed any.

I have Vol 25 No. 1 and 2 I must have misplaced Vol 26 No 1. What was on the cover or feature article? I'm going to have to dig through my office clutter. I probably inadvertently stuck it in a drawer with other stuff and didn't realize it.

I signed up back in July and paid my fee, but haven't received my membership pack or any magazines yet. I haven't had a reply to my queries either... I'm in the dark as to what's going on.

I just sent an inquiry email to Gordon. The membership director/ treasurer for an update on my status.

Thanks Dennis! I emailed him ten days ago but didn't hear back, hopefully you'll have more luck.

Yes, someone here belongs to the DOA I do. I have belonged to the DOA off and on for years. Why? Why not I like the mag , how ever this is a high price to pay for two or three books a year how ever I own a Delorean and have wasted money before. I really like the magazine. Andy B

I'd give it a go if they included access to PDFs of magazine back issues.

The cover, and feature article, was a photo of C.R. Brown.

I belonged to DOA from virtually the very beginning until John Truscott died. The DOA put on a lot of great events and Chapter 9 in Houston was a great Chapter. I was Chapter 9 president for several years. It was a big chapter with over 75 members at one time. DOA seemed to be torn apart from within - mostly the members in California were unhappy with Bernstein, et al, and destroyed the chapter concept with tax complaints and stuff. After John died things just slowly seemed to fade due to lack of interest it seemed to me. The DeLorean Car Show filled a big part the national need. Other things seem to have taken DOA's place.

Back in the day that was all there was. It was started as an organ of Ed Bernstein to promote Delorean One. It served a useful purpose but that was at a time when there were NO dealers, no support, no clubs, no parts. What started as a California club grew into a national organization. Once it started facing competition from other dealers and local clubs wanting independence, it collapsed. All it had going for it was the flashy, well done magazine which had less and less good information and morphed into what I called a travelogue of the California club's activities. It still has it's niche for those on the west coast and anyone who likes a print magazine but it is no longer relevant. The back issues of it's magazine are less and less relevant but that and the dues keeps them limping along. If you are anywhere near where you can join in their activities I would recommend you join. If you are not, then find a local group or form your own. If you can't find anyone nearby at least you have this forum.
