I am once again working on vin# 2329. I have retired from Pfizer and look forward to driving the Brick this year to local car club functions. I have owned this car since 5/1992 and like some owners, drive it rarely.
Thanks,
Jim Laforge

Hi all,
I have enjoyed reading this site with envy for the last couple of years. I am the president of an oil company in Calgary, Alberta and will be in the market to buy either a green or red Bricklin this spring so anyone who has either is welcome to email me. My email reflects the fact I have had a kidney transplant for 12 years and much like our beloved Bricklin it takes a lot to put me out of action. I remember with great sadness the day they shut the plant in New Brunswick and have decided 2010 will be the year I get mine.
Best Regards to everyone,
David A. Corcoran

Our family was a Bricklin dealer in Lancaster, Pa. The first car we received from the factory was #000092. We keep this car until 1986, than sold it. I can't find any history on this car. I spent many summers trying to keep the door skin attached to the frames. If anybody knows of it's wear abouts I would love to know. Got the Bricklin bug again, just bought #000708.
** Webmaster **
Congratulations on purchase of VIN0708. We hope you register and join us here on the BI Forum. I'm sure there are many folks that would love to hear from you.
When last we heard of VIN0092, it was in Baltimore, MD.

Hi All,
I sold my 75 Bricklin #1704 30 years ago, but often wonder who has it now. I sold it to a guy named Jeff Bishop in Georgia but don't see him or the car as a member here. In case anyone sees this and knows anything about the car, could you let me know?
Thanks,
Dale Klamfoth
** Webmaster **
Thanks for stopping. We're contacting you via e-mail on this. If you haven't received our e-mail, please contact VINRegistry@Bricklin.org.
We are always seeking information on Bricklins and encourage those owners who have not recently contacted our club to do so in order that we can track the cars. This is especially important when you know one has been 'destroyed', junked or 'parted-out'.

Hello Brickophiles,
My name is Richard Brown. I'm from Slidell, Louisiana and just got a 1975 Red SV-1. I got it at a salvage auction here in Slidell, La. It's a little rough, so I plan to restore it and keep it. I've wanted one since I saw "The Junkman" as a kid. Finally I found the Bricklin that feels like it was meant for me. Where can I find affordable Bricklin specific parts?
I really enjoy the website and plan on joining the club. Thanks and glad to meet you all. Rich
** Webmaster **
Greets Rich!

Just purchased #2252 which my son found on line in Mo. It looks and runs great. It is Safety Orange with 43K miles. Would like to know if that is the correct color for the #vin and if anyone has any other info on the car. I do have an old issue of Brickline which claims at that time was on its second owner then but was told when i bought it that original owner had for 25yrs in Texas then the guy i bought had for last 10. As i said it looks and runs great and will be sending in for membership as i was also given about 60 of old issues of the Brickline that have been a bonus treat in the purchasing of the car.
** Webmaster **

Greetings everyone. I was unable to attend this year's meets due to other plans. My car 0038 is getting work done by a friend of mine who use to own his own shop and has been going through the engine recently. I hope everyone had fun at the meet and wish I was able to attend. Any idea where next year's will be?

In memory of Rick Frenette who passed away last week. He and his partner Sean fixed up Bricklins in Ottawa, Ontario. They both have tattoos of Bricklins and were signed by Malcolm Bricklin too!
Local Bricklin owners came to the funeral and it was a lovely display of 6+ cars. It meant so much to Rick's family, as his mother and daughter got to see the cars Rick loved.
** Webmaster **
Thank you for stopping.
Rick will be missed!
I happened to attend the 2007 BI Meet in Leominster where (and when) the Boyz got their tattoos. They got the tats with the cars first, then both Herb Grasse and Malcolm Bricklin signed them ...

Man, these cars take me back. I have lusted after one since I was a teenager. There used to be what I thought was a yellow (I think it must have been suntan) one behind an old carpet store in Metairie La. a suburb of New Orleans. It was pretty rough even then with the hood delaminating, and that must have been around 1980 or so. It was sold before I could come up with the money (or the driver's license) to buy it. I would still like to own one one day. Any Idea what ever became of a car in the New Orleans area? It would be interesting to know.
** Webmaster **
Thank you for stopping by, Peter.
I'm not sure we would have information on that car unless someone else remembered it (or you happen to know the VIN).
You are welcome to join the forum and ask about that particular car. Won't hurt to join the community before you buy one, too.

Hello,I own the Bricklin #2315 not been running since 1991. She is alive and runs very well. Matching Numbers and 24000 Miles on the clock.
** Webmaster **
I am confused, Kenneth - you state that your car hasn't been run since 1991 and also indicate VIN2315 is 'alive and runs very well'. Regardless, thank you for dropping by and letting us know your car is still in existance.
We'd be pleased for you (or anyone interested in the Bricklin) to participate in our Forum discussions so we can hear more about your car. You don't have to be a member of the Bricklin International Owners Club to participate.
Thanks for stopping by!

So glad to own VIN2875.It is beautiful and runs and looks that way.I wouldn't sell or trade it for ANYTHING! Having owned VIN 2792 and sold it some years ago, my wifes' comment was "You are having a relapse of the Bricklin sickness". So be it, I hope there's no cure.Charlie Russell

Are any of the "old guys" around who started Bricklin International? I was there then! Buddy Saupe, Lenny Goldstein, Myles Connelly, etc., etc., etc. We had some great road trips to Niagara Falls, Sag Harbor, Amish country, etc. Great people & times. HERB GELLER
** Webmaster **
Yes, there's a few 'old timers' still around. More everyday, too!
You might want to contact our Membership Director for specifics.
