Hi correct way to fit a pinto thermostat 

Time to restart our monthly meetings after the Christmas layoff, hoping you are all well and looking forward to meeting up again.

Time to get our cars back on the road after they have been sitting there over Xmas.   So first meet of 2025 is going to be next Thursday (16th Jan) at the Welland Vale Garden Centre at Uppingham (LE15 9EU).  Usual time of 12:00, all welcome.

It's nearly that time again, the annual West Mids post Christmas meal.

The date is Wednesday 29th January 2025.

Same format as previous years and at our usual monthly venue The Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL

Be aware that the roads nearby can be busy due to all the pointless work for HS2 so make travel plans accordingly.

To keep the table bills simple, most people normally opt for the carvery but other options are available:

Meet up from 7PM onwards and aiming to eat around 7-30.

I like to give the pub a rough headcount in a week or so and then give them a more exact number a few days before the event so if interested parties can pencil it in their diary and let me know as soon as possible please.

Everyone welcome (including ladies and kids) and new members (or those thinking of joining) are especially welcome.

Good evening, first post so here goes. I'm Umar from Bradford and this is my tiger Avon zetec powered. Bought around 9 months ago and I've changed a few things, headlights was first as I didn't prefer the chrome round light look, cam belt and de chromed the windscreen and wipers.

Next Wednesday 27th 6pm onwards, Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL.

Generally they're trying to kick us out just after 930pm so if you're coming, don't leave it too late. Also, if you want to eat, book beforehand as they don't normally let people just rock up and eat.

Entrance to the pub car park is off the A452 Chester Road heading North 50 yards from the island.

Everyone welcome. Last month I was a no show due to being delayed elsewhere, next week I'll be there.

Its our last meeting of the year, so come along to the Church Mouse at Chester Moor DH23RJ ALL WELCOME.

One of our memenbers, Russ Garrett, has bought to my attention that there have been a number of scam profiles on Facebook that are targeting kit car pages GBS/ Robin hood and so on, by trying to sell parts.  They ask for a deposit then disappear. 

When you look at the sellers profile it is often lacking in information and content, also the low price of the parts can be tempting.  Just remember the old adage, "If it seems to good to be true, it probably is....".
