Northwest Group run out update.

[Stephen Percival]

Good morning all

Just to update you on our proposed run out on the 4th December to Southport and onwards. The meeting point will be the Car Park off the A49 Preston Road opp Collingwood St Standish nr Wigan.  Subject to extreme weather, I would like to start our run at 11 am. We run down to Southport for some chips or what ever floats your food boat. After a show run through the main drag, if you are up for it we will head to Formby and see the cast iron men in the Sea. If anyone wants to enhance the day chip in. It is your club, your voice.

See you all soon. Steve P.

Looking forward to the 'drive out' never seen the cast iron men before and I am always up for a bag of chips 

Thanks for the info Steve.

If you need help with your wiring and the car will drive, bring it ovzer to my workshop at the weekend and we can try and sort it out.

I may have it over recovered to your workshop, got the car mechanically sound…. Well hopefully as I’m not professional, the wiring just seems to be one nightmare after another it’s defeating me to be honest

[Darrell]

[Stephen Percival]

Thanks, its the manifold to pipe connection, all should be well, the pipe has arrived and the welder has said he can turn it around in time, all down to me fitting it before Saturday!! I got this

Good evening all, Sorry but due to current Covid raised response, I am now on standby at work for the weekend, so I will not be available to do the runout. It does not stop you guys from doing the run. Steve P.

This look interesting as I live in Tameside. I'll have to see how quickly I can replace the front dampers.

Sorry guys, I haven't got this!!!! I ordered the wrong pipe got OD and ID mixed up, re ordered and it hasn't arrived so 'Rupert' has no exhaust and I wont be able to make the drive out tomorrow. Gutted isn't the word. 

Yes I have named my Robin Hood, the first car I have named, it seemed right, have you named yours?

See you all on zoom next week 

Hope all goes well tomorrow.

Hi Ian, did you brave the storm on Saturday, did anyone else? 

[IanS]

Glad someone asked.

Waited at the car park untill 11:15 then in a convoy of one went round my idea of the route.

I have never seen the sea so far into the land at Southport, not a single sign of sand, sea was trying to get over the wall to the north of Southport.

At Crosby the sea was washing right up to the car park with lots of rubble on the tarmac.

The heads of another place by Gormley were showing through the surf.

You missed a memoriable trip but I know that my weather gear mostly works.

My Ozee suit was more than up to the conditions. https://www.ozee.co.uk/

Look forward to meeting everyone in the flesh.

We should have gone on Sunday.
