HISTORY... November 1982: Arnie Brandon purchased a new DeLorean automobile. Feeling very alone in that the producing factory in Ireland had shut down and US dealers were also disbanding, Arnie felt a need for companionship. So he put together a list of other DeLorean owners by talking to all the dealers in the Seattle area, stopping DeLoreans seen driving down the road and any other hearsay contacts.

February 26, 1983: After sending out 60 notices or invitations to form and/or join a DeLorean club, a meeting was held at the Issaquah Holiday Inn. Twelve DeLoreans showed up that day and the Pacific Northwest DeLorean Club was formed. Mr. Greg McDonald was our first president. A yearly membership dues of $15.00 was voted upon by the newly formed Club. These dues were collected to pay for mailing costs, printing costs (newsletters, club rosters and after market parts lists). The remaining moneys were used by the club to at least partly supply Club gatherings and celebrations. On December 8, 1992, PNDC was established as a non-profit corporation in the state of Washington.

While the Club knows of some 175 DeLoreans in the northwest area, our membership has remained relatively constant at about 100 members. PNDC schedules many happenings during any given year. To celebrate our heritage, our Club offers a corned beef and cabbage bash each St. Patrick’s Day. For the speedsters, PNDC occasionally joins the Alfa Romeo club as it stages racing days. The Club promotes a DeLorean car rally. Car shows, parades, tech. sessions and brunches plus any other events that we can fit into the schedule as members submit ideas.

Today our Club continues to be more and more valuable to our members as parts become more and more scarce. PNDC also serves our members as a vehicle to show our cars once in a while and serves as a reason to get them out of our garages.

It is hoped that the rust proof, gull winged beauties will live much longer with the help of the PNDC.
