OCTOBER 2005
THIS WAS MY FATHER’S OLDSMOBILE
by John Habeeb
My father purchased a 1970 Oldsmobile 442 holiday coupe back on
October 2nd 1969. At the time I was in 6th grade and not to much
envolved with cars. I remember he took my older sister who was just
about to get her drivers license down with him to Big 2 Oldsmobile in
Mesa. From recently talking to her she said he asked her... "Which
one do you like since you might be driving it to school?" There was a
Ming Jade Cutlass Supreme and a Gold Nugget 442 setting next to it
on the showroom floor. I asked which one did you choose? Did you
know the 442 was the performance model? She smiled and said
"...with the sporty steering wheel, rims and 442 emblems..." How
was the Cutlass optioned? "I tried not to look over at it too much..."
I inherited the car from my dad in 1981. I drove it for a few years.
During that time it went though a few performance upgrades and a
fresh paint…

President’s Message
It’s that time of year again to start making plans for 2006. All members are
strongly encouraged to renew their dues early. This year we are offering 2 year
renewals in addition to the 1 year renewal. Soon we will be sending in a list of our
club members to the Oldsmobile Club of America (the national club), to ensure that
we are compliant with their rule that states that our club members must also be a
member of their club. If we are non-compliant we are at risk of losing our charter.
It’s also time to renew or place a business card ad in our newsletter. You will find
all the information you need to perform these tasks in this newsletter.
Our annual elections will be taking place this month at our meeting on October
22 nd. So far the President and Vice President positions are vacant. We need some
club members to step up and take the reigns so that our club doesn’t fall apart.
Please don’t let this happen. If you’ve never held a board position it’s time you did.
Especially if you’ve been a club member for a long time and have never held a
position. Since we are in the computer age it is necessary for whoever holds these
positions to have email.
The club is going to Bisbee, Arizona on October 15th to spend the night and tour
the copper mines (and have a great time!). If you haven’t reserved a hotel room at
the Copper Queen yet, you may be out of luck, but you can still give it a shot. If
they are full, give Frank Alfter a call and he may be able to help you wit h alternate
lodging.
On October 22 nd we will once again have an informal car show at Julio G’s. This
event is called Rockets On The Green and is free! Our monthly meeting will take
place during the show. In November we have a couple of great events. The first
one is the Greenway High School Show on November 6th, and then our Cruise &
Eat on November 12th will take us to Tortilla Flats for lunch.
Our annual Holiday Party is taking place on December 3rd at Cantina Laredo. This
is the same place that we held it last year. If you attended last year or know
someone who attended then you know how good the food is. Everything was
absolutely incredible. This year we will place our food orders in advance to help
the restaurant out. Mark December 3rd on your calendar now!
Our Annual All Oldsmobile Show will take place next February 25th. It’s time to
start gathering door prizes and items to stuff in the goodie bags. If every club
member could please collect a minimum of 1 door prize and one item to stuff in
each of the 100 bags we will be preparing we would be in great shape. Good
places to ask for door prizes are businesses that you frequent. Gift certificates as
well as merchandise are always welcome. Please bring any items you receive to
the mo nthly meetings or call me to make arrangements.
Look for information on all the above mentioned events in this newsletter.
Happy Oldsmobiling!
Gloria

Information to be considered for submittal in to the newsletter needs to be received by the 1st of the month. Please

THIS WAS MY FATHER’S OLDSMOBILE
by John Habeeb
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
1983
The AZ sun can be brutal as
we all know and we didn't
have a garage at that time!
After I moved out to Queen
Creek it went into garage
storage for 18 years. The car
was resurrected in December
of 2003.
It went through a
complete frame-on weekend
‘restofication’ process.
Everything was replaced or
rebuilt. Being that the car
spent its entire life in the
Arizona desert it was a very solid and completely rust free vehicle.
1973
While I don't have the build sheet I do have the original owners
manual, plastic folder and Protect-O Plate. I also have the AZ state
registration slips from 1970-1985 when it went into storage.
I decided to dedicate the car to my dad. In 1988 Olds used the slogan
"It's not your father's Oldsmobile"
Mine reads on the lower trunk deck "This was my father's
Oldsmobile"

IS YOUR NATIONAL MEMBERSHIP CURRENT?
As you should know, all Oldsmobile Club of Arizona members are required to be members of the Oldsmobile Club of
America (OCA), the national club. Once a year we have to submit a list of our members to them, to ensure that we are
compliant with their rule. We will be submitting that very soon. If your OCA membership is not current, please renew it
right away. You can tell if your membership is current if you are receiving the monthly magazine Journey With Olds
(JWO). If you are not receiving this magazine, then your membership has expired. Your membership expiration date is
shown on the mailing label of the JWO. If we have non-compliant members we will be in jeopardy of losing our OCA
charter. Please don't let that happen.
BISBEE OVERNIGHT TRIP - OCTOBER 15th, 2005
The club is going on a overnight trip to historical Bisbee, Arizona on Saturday, October 15th. We will be staying at the
famous old “Copper Queen” located in the center of Bisbee where we have a block of rooms reserved. You must make
your reservations no later than September 16th. When you call tell them you are with the Oldsmobile Club of
Arizona. Copper Queen's number is 520-432-2216. Group Rates begin at $97.00 to $131.00 per couple ($97 for
double bed, $122 for queen bed, and $131 for a king). If the Copper Queen is full when you call, ask Frank Alfter for
alternate lodging suggestions.
Saturday afternoon we will tour the Queen Mine (an inactive copper mine). This is an underground tour. The cost for
the tour is $12.00 + Tax per person. This tour is optional. Saturday evening we will have dinner together (separate
tickets), and then head back to the hotel to play Scream & Holler! This will be a great evening to laugh, relax, and get
to know some of your fellow club members. Sunday morning we will have breakfast at the Copper Queen at 9:00 a.m.
prior to our return to Phoenix (separate tickets). For those interested on the way home there is an optional tour of the
Pima Air Museum. The museum is just off I-10 at exit 267, and is well worth the visit as it has not only a very extensive
variety of military aircraft, but also quite a few one-of-a-kind aircraft that you will not see anywhere else in the world.
The entrance fee varies, but for groups of 20 or more (or military, or seniors) it is $9.75 per person.
Please RSVP to Frank no later than Saturday, October 1st, and don’t forget to make your hotel reservations
before September 16th! Should you have any questions and want to be placed on the list of participants, please
contact Frank and Carol Alfter at 623-780-3529.
If attending, meet us at Burger King at Arizona Ave and Ray Rd in Chandler at 7:00 AM on the 15th to caravan to
Bisbee. Burger King is on the Northeast corner and there is a large lot behind in which to park our cars for an easy turn
onto Arizona Ave from Ray to head south. Our route will take us thru Florence, Tucson, Tombstone and in to Bisbee.
We will have lunch in Tombstone.

ROCKETS ON THE GREEN
On Saturday, October 22nd the Oldsmobile Club of Arizona will be displaying our cars at Julio G's Mexican restaurant in
Scottsdale. This show will be open to all Oldsmobiles. Car owners do not need to be a member of our club to
participate. Julio G's is generously supplying coffee & donuts in the morning, and will be providing trophies. Judging
will be by participants and restaurant patrons. Julio G's has a beautiful greenbelt area where we will be parking. Our
monthly meeting will take place during this show. The show will run from approximately 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.
After the show we will cruise to McDonald's where we will park in the club row as usual. This will be a great Oldsmobile
day! See the flyer for more information.
GREENWAY HIGH SCHOOL SHOW NOVEMBER 6TH
This year the Greenway High School Show is limited to only 70 cars, so first come, first reserved. This is a great show
so get your registrations in early so you don't miss out on all the fun. Due to construction of a new media center on
campus, entrance to the car show will be off of Greenway road at the entrance in front of the suditorium. The gate is
located between 39th and 41st Avenues on the north side of Greenway road. As usual, the craft fair and concession
stand will be in full operation. If you have any questions about the show, please refer to the flyer first, then call Andy
at 623-915-8525
CRUISE & EAT ON NOVEMBER 12TH
Cruise with us to Tortilla Flats to eat lunch. Where the hell is Tortilla Flat? The famous authentic Stage coach stop of
Tortilla Flat, Arizona is nestled in the Superstition Mountain Wilderness. Six people live there, in one of the last remnants
of the old west. The Tortilla Flat Superstition Saloon has been serving adventurous travelers for over 100 years. Saddle
up to the bar and get the best "Old West" Burgers and home-style Chili. Mosey down the boardwalk past the official
U.S. Post Office to the Old-Fashioned Ice Cream-Candy store. Try a scoop of our Prickly Pear ice cream. See the flyer
for more information on this event.

Overnight to Historic
Bisbee, Arizona
October 15th and 16th, 2005
Meet at Burger King, AZ Ave and Ray,
Chandler at 7 am. Drive thru beautiful
Arizona and see the Country. Gas in Tucson
Lunch in Tombstone at high noon...
Take a cool ride into the Queen Mine.
Great dining in Bisbee.
Overnight at the famous old
Copper Queen HOTEL.
Scream AND Holler the evening away
Great breakfast at the hotel
View AN open pit mine
Visit Pima Air Museum on the way home
We will be staying at the famous old “Copper Queen” located in the
center of Bisbee where we have a block of rooms reserved. You
must make your reservations no later than September 16th.
When you call tell them you are with the Oldsmobile Club of Arizona.
Copper Queen's number is 520-432-2216. Group Rates begin
at $97.00 to $131.00 per couple ($97 for double bed, $122 for queen
bed, and $131 for a king). If the Copper Queen is full when you
call, ask Frank Alfter for alternate lodging suggestions.
Saturday afternoon we will tour the Queen Mine (an inactive copper mine). This is an underground tour. The cost for the tour is $12.00 + Tax per
person. This tour is optional.
Saturday evening we will have dinner together (separate tickets), and then head back to the hotel to play Scream & Holler! This will be a great evening
to laugh, relax, and get to know some of your fellow club members.
Sunday morning we will have breakfast at the Copper Queen at 9:00 a.m. prior to our return to Phoenix (separate tickets). For those interested on the
way home there is an optional tour of the Pima Air Museum. The museum is just off I-10 at exit 267, and is well worth the visit as it has not only a very
extensive variety of military aircraft, but also quite a few one-of-a-kind aircraft that you will not see anywhere else in the world. The entrance fee varies,
but for groups of 20 or more (or military, or seniors) it is $9.75 per person.
Please RSVP to Frank no later than Wednesday, October 1st, and don’t forget to make your hotel reservations before September 16th! Should
you have any questions and want to be placed on the list of participants, please contact Frank and Carol Alfter at 623-780-3529.
If attending, meet us at Burger King at Arizona Ave and Ray Rd in Chandler at 7:00 AM. on the 15th to caravan to Bisbee. Burger King is on the
Northeast corner and there is a large lot behind in which to park our cars for an easy turn onto Arizona Ave from Ray to head south. Our route will take
us thru Florence, Tucson, Tombstone and in to Bisbee. We will have lunch in Tombstone.
