Thanks goodness for the warmth of a Pinto keeping all but my shoulder tops warm True to form I forgot to take any photos until the very end.

  17. Just wondering are you Blackpool based as well?
  18. Welcome one and all, don’t forget to put a pin in the members map, thanks and enjoy your cars
  19. A couple of our local members had a run out... Nice little drive out from Blackpool to Sabden via Stoneyhurst college. Then onto the Well Springs pub for a bite to eat before driving back. Only the 2nd outing with the replacement 2.0 litre Pinto, believed to be out of 71/72 Ford Mustang. Drove like a dream and never missed a beat. Nice country roads up to the Well Springs and great food too. Well worth a drive out, Gordon (rdeagle1029)

  22. This is fantastic that conversations like this have started. How very true, it is all about communication and suggesting ideas for the area secs to pick up on, but also with the new areas it would be a great to assist the area secs in getting club attendances up and running. We need to consider social get togethers e.g. Meeting at ice cream parlours (Wallings at Cockerham for example), keep the ideas and suggestions coming.
  23. Hi Tom, great picture, is that a pull in/ car park? would be great to get a few cars lined up for a picture
