You could try here to start with: www.fbhvc.co.uk/

The AACI www.aacint.com/ or the AACC www.motorvatinusa.org.uk/intro.html may be useful too, but be aware that their parent club had a spat a couple of years ago and it broke up into these two groups !

There is still the AAC which was the original club and the AACI, of which I am a member, which is headed by Harry Tune, the former president of the AAC and who has the exclusive rights to the Billing events. Chris Jackson deals with Notts Americana and all the clubs cater for all cars generally. However, I'm bound to say that if you want to "talk Buicks", you're better off joining a dedicated American forum as the UK clubs are generally more baout generalities and the more popular cars like Camaros, Firebirds and Corvettes.

Thanks guys for all the info there, apart from shows and pie'n pints evenings I really do need a club which can offer technical help and spare parts contacts or direct. I'm going to have a look at the sites you've all posted up, Thanks again.
