  1. Yup. Just got mine MOT`d last Friday. And the weather has been unbelievable. See you there Andi
  2. Hi all, This might be on 27/06/2024 at The George and Dragon which may be in Meaford, Stone ST15 0PX. No one has to go if you dont want to, No one really turns up to Stafford events, one or 2 if your lucky. Hopefully the pub wont close down, as this has happened once before. In fact one closed down for good, and another that we have used closes down next week. I wouldnt say its too boring being alone at meets, its a perfect time for reflection, self realisation and creative thinking. I might even take my "how to build a kit car for £250" book and wonder where it all went wrong. The weather is looking good, so ill be able to sit outside looking at the vast array of, well, tin tops. And perhaps have a conversation with myself whilst talking at my reflection on the newly polished rear end of my kit. The chairman is the most turned up person. Think i`ll get us both T shirts with "The Staffordshire 2" on it. Anyways, if you do turn up, and you see a sad looking couple of blokes looking like theyre part of a "cant be bothered Andys man club", that`ll be us. Come over and say hello.

  3. https://the-car-hive.yapsody.com/event/index/783707/wheels-motor-show-2024 It seems the best deal is to show your car with movement. Lets be honest, I dont like the idea of being a show prisoner for the whole day. Its then only £7 per car. https://the-car-hive.yapsody.com/event/book/783707/31572039 Andi

  5. Also dont dismiss going lower with jet size. In one set up I had 1.8. Then next was 1.4. The 1.4 was even better. But to truly know this you need a rolling rd that can do cars / bike carb set ups. Its the only way to get the best results and worth every penny. Andi
  6. Wowsa. Loads better
  7. 3 here mate
  8. Sierra based with the switch near the diff. Not sure of the thread size. A few on here though. Any ideas? https://www.carbuilder.com/uk/search?adv=true&cid=0&q=stop light switch&sid=true&isc=true
  9. Yes mate 23rd May. Ive made an even bigger mistake. I cant make this meet. We are going away a day earlier than I thought. The famous wife phrase of "YOU DON`T LISTEN" is still ringing in my ears. And no, its not because it might be my turn to buy the beers. But I will get them in June. Sorry guys, and obviously still go along if you can.
  10. Hi all, This will be on 23/05/2024 at The George and Dragon Meaford, Stone ST15 0PX. Everyone welcome, just turn up. Ill be there about 6.30pm.

  12. Mines been locked up in the shed for a while. Body works knackered and the undercarriage has gone south. I`m feeling too old to ride it lately, but had some decent mileage out of her. Love to sell her, but apparently illegal to sell your wife in this country.

    Club magazine

    Great read Foz, I didnt notice an issue with photos darkness.. MESSAGE TO ALL This magazine is only made possible by members submitting photos and / or articles. Over the years, all editors have at some point struggled with getting in enough content to get the mag to the printers. So if you have any snippets or stories, please send them in. It can be anything car related, from builds to rebuilds to over winter mods, my first drive, my kit car collection, why my partner hates my car obsession, my best crash, my worst mistake, my track day, my huge mechanical mistake, my smashing my car up rolling it off the trailer (sorry AP Godden), any visits to car events of any kind or just a detailed account of a run out. And anything else you can think of. It`ll be better reading you piece than it will reading the news. Andi
  14. Nice one lindzie. I believe your after a radiator for your rh and some hose? Someone will be along shortly with some suggestions. I know lots of folk use a polo radio. Cheap as chips if you get the right one. Andy
  15. Welcome all. Dont forget to ask questions.. We love it. Becky, im not too far from you near Penkridge.

    Carb filers

    I used ITG sock filters on bike carbs. They were tested on a rolling road and made no loss in performance.
  17. That does look good.. Cheap as chips too

  23. Well, then rain did hold off. I was surprised to see so many engine transplants. Plus to see 4 Deloreans in a row was a bit special
  24. Yeah I think your right mate
