Piston Broke Award

This annual award is presented by the current holder to the member who has had the "most heralded car malfunction of the year", while engaged in club activities.

("Break down" means: a mechanical problem that requires the hood up, the use of tools, assistance from other members, a tow truck, and/or a gas can.)

This award was created by Tony Mantell and presented to Fred and Marg Van Ingen for their noisy trip from Crofton to Nanoose with their exhaust system in the boot (trunk) for their MGB instead of connected to the manifold (header).
