MVPA ARMY MOTORS

Post by Joe Gopan » Tue Mar 06, 2018 6:09 am

MVPA is having a contest to come up with a new name for its' "ARMY MOTORS" magazine. Long time "ARMY MOTORS" editor Reg. Hodgson is stepping down after over 40 years and the MVPA BOD believes it is only fitting to retire "ARMY MOTORS" in honor of his years of service.
Here's a chance to participate in an organization that has done so much for the MV hobby.
You must be a member to participate.

MVPA Member. My vote is to use "Motor Pool" It is not tied to any country or branch of service and anyone with MVs in their inventory has a motor pool.

That would be a good pick. The MVPA discusses this in the latest Army Motors.

I like "Motor Pool" also. It speaks to what we all do if let loose in one. Fix things, scrounge for parts, do stuff without permission etc. Not the least of which is give a buddy a hand (or two) when he needs one. Good call.
Best, Ed
