Founded by Jon S. Belcher in the winter of 1995, this organization is active in England, attending car shows and events.

Current membership has exceeded 50 members. Membership is free in exhcange for patronage of Jon Belcher's spares business.

Past Shows and Awards

At the Japanese Auto Extravaganza on the weekend of June 28-29, 1997, over twenty Piazzas were in attendance and two were awarded trophies.
Jon Belcher won honors for his highly modified 1986 Piazza Turbo, and Alex Johnstone won "Best Car at the Show" for his Piazza Turbo.
IPTOC sees this as a great compliment, especially given the fact that they have not been organized for very long. The expect to make a very big showing next year and have already started working together to earn more honors next year.

Future Events

IPTOC is planning a 97/98 Christmas or New Year Get Together, to be held on the weekend of January 17 and 18, at the Old New In in Bourton-on-the-Water, Glos. GL54 2AF.
This is to be IPTOC's first Isuzu dedicated event and is a social gathering of IPTOC members and their families, especially husbands, wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, friends, and even pets.
The New Old Inn is a historic establishment having been established in 1714 and is a beautiful traditional English inn with modern facilities and a lovely atmosphere.
Bourton-on-the-Water is described as "The ultimate picturesque village; streams, bridges, cottages, and shops, plus exotic birds, our very own model village (1/9 scale), and a vintage car museum."
Of special interest is the fact that the original Isuzu sales literature for the 1985 Piazza was photographed in Bourton-on-the-Water. The picturesque village was used as a back drop to show off the equally lovely form of the Piazza. Two of those photos were taken in front of "The Cotsworth Perfumery" and the Old New In. John Belcher has obtained permission for all IPTOC members who attend the event to photograph their Piazzas in exactly the same position as the show vehicle pictured in the Isuzu brochure.
With the strong turnout at the Japanese Auto Extravaganza, forty or more Piazza owners and their families are expected to attend.

Jon Belcher has plans laid out for a Piazza Roadster (permanent convertible) in the future, for a promotional vehicle for the club.
