Agree with Woolies, as they are quite near me (and you, Market Deeping) Also both of them will almost certainly have a stand at Malvern Kit Car Show on 1/2nd Jun All the trim on my car just clips onto the sharp edge and doesn't need any adhesive.

It was some years ago, and I'm not sure I fully understood my mechanic when we decided to replace the bushes on the front suspension of my Superspec (one was an advisory on the MOT but we decided to replace all 4). When he pulled out the old ones he was a bit surprised and said they were very hard and really used just for racing, not toddling along. I presented hime with 2 replacement sets, The first was from KitSpares (GBS) for £8.70 The others were from Powerflex and were polyurethene and I think they cost around £25. He was a bit concerned that the Kit Spares ones were a bit soft, so he used the PowerFlex ones. So far they are working well.

And we did enjoy ourselves Weather was perfect again and we all had nice long drives around the 50-80 minutes mark. We arrived a day after a Supercar Show had been staged so the Car Park was a bit full, although we still managed to park together. We didn't see any aircraft but we did see lots of classic cars being either driven away or put on trailers. We also had an nice hour or so repairing Andy's car (Wouldn't start, diagnosed as fuel pump failure). Luckily I had a spare pump and we had 4 comprehensive tool kits so we eventually managed to get him going so he could go home under his own steam rather than on a flatbed . Nicely demonstrates what the Club is all about. We were joined by Pete, our newest member, who has an absolutely stunning Ronart car. Donor was a 4.2Ltr Jaguar, straight 6 (Check out the exhaust !!) A good day all round.

OK, decision made. It will be Sywell Aerodrome (NN6 0BN) at 12:00. This is one of our favoutite haunts. It has a nice car park, a nice grassy area to sit and you get the bonus of a free museum (donations) and aircraft to watch and, most importantly, a toilet close by

A sudden window of good weather has opened up on Monday 20th before it pours with rain for the rest of the week. Some of the East of England team are going out for a lunchtime picnic, but it's also time for all the other retirees, self employed, house husbands and out-of-work members to get the cars out. If anyone from 'out of state' wants to join us let me know. We will decide on the venue when we know who is coming. Al

Another nice day for the East of England group. Weather superb, location lovely and a nice run in the cars for everyone. Thanks to all who supported it.

You will need wipers, washers and demisters. Easiest way is just take off the windscreen again.

Just had confirmation that the site will open for access from 12:00 to 18:00 on Friday

As per the title, A friend of mine originally built this car and it was one of a select few that passed the IVA first time. He sold it to someone in Liverpool but then lost track of it. He would like to know where it is now. Registration is G994 KOG (ignore the plates in the second picture, it was on a personal plate). The gov.uk site shows it has been untaxed since March last year and the MOT ran out last Oct. So it won't be on the road, it will be sitting in a garage somewhere. Anyone know of it ?

The organisers have confirmed we have the meeting room booked for 15:00 on Saturday for our AGM. Make sure you contact the Secretary if you want to bring anything up (details are in the magazine, which for postal users should be arriving soon)

Old timers amonst us will remember we regularly took our cars to this show (easy for me as it is only 3 miles away ). But about 3 years ago a brand new Committee was formed and they didn't show any interest in cars displaying. I have just been contacted by the previous organiser who said they have seen the error of their ways and now wanted cars to display. It's on Sunday 23rd June (Its actually all weekend but the Saturday is primarily a music festival). The website is https://midsummerfestival.co.uk/ The postcode is NG33 4SB. It's a real old style village fair and a nice day out. If anyone fancies going please let me know.

You just beat me to it I've posted the map in a dedicated thread

Time is fast approaching. Remember there are now only 2 dedicated kit car shows, this one and Newark. So time to make an effort and come along. The website is at https://www.visitthemalverns.org/event/national-kit-car-show-2/ The parking plan is now available and is shown below. Our Club Stand is right in the middle and similar to last year. We are planning to have the AGM in a room in the exhibition Hall at 15:00 (still to be confirmed). This should allow even the far-flung members to come for the day and still get home before dark. For the campers the camping area is on the right. See you all there

We are waiting for confirmation from the organisers as to which patch we will be on. At the same time they will issue a map that will show the stands and the camping area. They always leave it quite late, I guess so that they avoid late changes. If I haven't heard in a week or so I will give them a nudge. You can almost certainly arrive on the Friday to camp over. See you there
