2026 - CMGC Spring Tune Up, April 18th
2026-04-18 10:00 | Don’s Auto Ade, 2 S 781, Illinois Rte. 59, Warrenville, IL, 60555, United States
CMGC members are invited to tune up your MG’s for the 2026 driving season.

For the 12th year we will meet at Don’s Auto Ade in Warrenville. Start time will be 10:00 am this year. This is your chance to change the motor oil, radiator fluids, check brakes and get a good look underneath your MG. This is a great opportunity to use the resources available to see if there are any issues to take care of before getting your MG on the road for 2025. Six service racks will be available for our use.
There is an Advance Auto Parts store nearby for any parts you might need and remember to bring your own fluids, filters and other supplies. There will be plenty of members on hand to offer advice and assist. Sam from Don’s will be available to mount and balance tires, including those on wire wheels, and do alignments for a reasonable fee. If you need tires or batteries call ahead so that they can be ordered.
Check in with Dave “Cowboy” Bralich before starting any major projects. If you have time afterwards members will be gathering at a local restaurant nearby for food, beverage and conversation.

2026 Spring - Triad Car Care Safety Clinic for Seniors, May 9th
2026-05-09 08:00 - 12:00 | Venue: Lisle Township Maintenance Building – Lisle, IL, 4719 Indiana Ave, Lisle, IL, 60532
The safety clinic provides a free 40-point safety inspection of vehicles driven by senior citizens (ages 50 and older).
Chicagoland MG Club member Jim Vondran coordinates the Triad car safety clinic each Spring and Autumn. The event grows each year as the Triad organization’s outreach to seniors continues to expand. Seniors are often subjected to unscrupulous mechanics who try to get the seniors to have unnecessary extra services. We rely heavenly on the club members to evaluate the seniors’ vehicles and advise them as to what may or may not need attention.
Volunteers from the CMGC, the Chicago area Model T Club and the Windy City Miata Club help in servicing and inspecting the vehicles.
Vintage and antique cars will again be on display: most are vehicles owned by our volunteer “car guys” who help preform the inspections. After their vehicles are inspected, seniors are welcome to park their cars and view the “classic and vintage” vehicles.
Please contact Jim Vondran directly to affirm your participation as a team crew-member.
