fabulous news, welcome aboard everyone

Are there any car meets/ shows near you coming soon, perhaps the last few of the season? then post the details on here. Remember if you are planning a run out and fancy some company, put some details on here and someone may meet up with you. Have fun everyone

Hi All, The next Corner House car meet is this Sunday from 0830am, see the Facebook poster below. Members of the club have been regular attendees all summer, fingers crossed for the weather to be kind on Sunday. Please post some pictures on here if you have a run out. Take care.

Hi, glad you had a great run out, you should have said I would have met up with you and had a run along the prom with you, have fun, Darrell

Just wondering are you Blackpool based as well?

Welcome one and all, don’t forget to put a pin in the members map, thanks and enjoy your cars

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)

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.

Hi Tom, great picture, is that a pull in/ car park? would be great to get a few cars lined up for a picture

Here's another run out to a car meet in Longridge... www.wheelsupnorth.co.uk next one is this Thursday, Gordon (rdeagle1029) is planning a run out any one else fancy it? Don't forget some pictures...

I have Temp switch (coolant system) 100/95 (025) FAE 36060 fitted to mine, it all seems to run fine.

Hi All, Great run out to the Corner House meet today, it was great to see a number of UK KCC members. Sorry if I didn’t see you all it was a very busy meet with over 200 cars and not everyone stood by their cars and why should they!!! I must admit I got a few strange looks from people as I asked them if they were members and an even stranger look when I asked them to consider joining. Attached are a few pictures from the meet, more can be seen by visiting the Corner House meets face book page. It was great to put some faces to names and talk to you about your cars and the builds behind them. All in all the comments made were very positive, the weather was perfect and the cars fantastic. One comment I heard as a Sierra Cosworth drove by was "that would make a good donor!!" I hope the driver didn’t hear it, ha ha ha. Thanks to all the members who turned up this morning, please keep your eye on the events forum for more run outs and events. Have fun Darrell

Hi All and welcome, fab news that our membership continues to grow, Pleeeeeease remember to put a marker in the members map so we all know who our closest member is, perhaps to pop round for a brew and chat. Darrell NW Area Sec

Thanks for your advice, however they were ".HEIC" files?!? a quick google showed me how to convert to ".jpeg" files, some clicking and here are some of my photos for you to peruse... oh bugger!!! some are on their side, oh well not changing them now, enjoy everyone. Did anyone get a picture of the car with the Phantom jet cockpit? that looked interesting

It was my first Kit Car Show, I thoroughly enjoyed it and the dry weather was a god send travelling down from Blackpool. There were loads of cars of many types showing what an imaginative bunch we are. The manufacturers, parts and tool stalls were fab to potter around, boy am I glad I didn't take my credit card!! The owners I chatted to were a friendly bunch, happy to chat about their pride and joy and willing to answer questions on how they did things or solved problems. All in all a fab day. Fingers crossed for Stoneleigh and Newark next year.

Can anyone tell me what I haven't or have clicked that has resulted in the pictures not showing!!?!?

What a fabulous day I had yesterday at the Newark Kit Car Show, it was great to faces to names that I have been messaging on the forums. The sun shone and showed of the many different kit cars on show, what an imaginative bunch we are. A great turnout by the club, that I am sure could have seen more of us in attendance. Wandering around the show I saw manufacturers in the main hall along with suppliers of parts, tools and 'bits n pieces' that one may need to build and tinker with their kit car, remember they are never finished! I enjoyed talking to the owners who were more than willing to talk about their cars and offer advice to any question asked. You could sit in cars to see if you fit, take pictures to remind you how a problem was overcome,… All in all a great day, fingers crossed there is a Newark '23 See the Newark event page for some photos
