Membership renewal

Hello,

I'm writing to confirm the DTCA received my 2025 membership renewal payment on 19 Dec 2024 and that I'll continue to receive issues of the DTCA Journal in the new year.

Thank you,

--Ravi

Mine was sent around the same time. Despite all the problems with the website, it's important that we support the Association by renewing our membership, and trying to attract new members wherever we can to ensure survival.

Did you receive an acknowledgement of your renewal?

Not yet, but I will know for sure when the next Journal arrives.

The January 2026 Journal, the 100th edition, arrived in the post today, a very interesting read. The situation regarding the website is discussed, but I found it quite shocking that "none of the present Committee are Forum users" - WHY NOT? Surely, it's the quickest and easiest way to share news and information. In my opinion, both the Forum and the Journal are essential parts of the Association, and I welcome other members' thoughts on the subject. Remember the old adage "Use it or lose it"!

Anyone out there know of a paint colour match for the metallic blue/green used on DT102 JOES CAR?

If there is enough of the original paint left on the model, any decent automotive paint supplier will be able to mix a matching colour for you, in an aerosol can. I've used that method several times to good effect.

Anyone out there ever seen or own DT 163 Volkswagen 1600TL Fastback in BLUE or GREEN? records show that the colour was changed twice in 1969 from the original RED.

Vic, the only color I've seen the Dinky 163 Volkswagen 1600TL Fastback in is red.
