Right now I haven't had a need to belong to the MVPA or subscribe to MV
Magizine. There are no local MVPA chapters or clubs. The closest area
that would have one would be Denver, Colo and that is still 8-10 hours
away. I can't see spending that much and only getting a fration of the
benefits. Granted, the "how-to's", part resources, etc would be helpful
but, having been a mechanic in the US Army for 10 yrs and having
restored early civilian jeeps I'm fairly capable at what I'm doing.
