Exactly the way you are suggesting. One person at a time, and don't expect
overnight results. A call to arms to other enthusiasts to do the same will
help. There are an incredible number of car shows every year in all parts of
the country. I can't begin to go to all the shows for just British cars
within 100 miles of Philly, and there are plenty of other marques out there
that also have a good following.
The clubs that put on the shows have to advertise to a larger audience than
just their own group. There was no mention of the New Hope Auto Show in
British Car magazine, and I counted over 70 LBCs on Saturday. Did you know
there was a big show that same weekend in Coopersburg, put on by the Mustang
Club? I drove up to Coopersburg after I left New Hope to see if they had put
up a sign. They had and the show was the next day. I saw no advertising, I
just remembered the show from last year.
Now I'm on your burning soap box!
