Thanks to all those who attended - shame that I broke down on the way in and Andy had a coil/points failure on the road!

Still, the weather came good and we had an enjoyable day.

No, I managed to get it home in case it wouldn't start again - I think the bendix had stuck on the shaft of the starter motor and wasn't engaging with the ring gear. I'll find out tomorrow

All going again - it was the Bendix sticking - thanks to Phil for the extra pair of hands.

Keith

Looked a very good show/Turn out.
How many cars got there. I can see the 5 Mk1's in the front
line but are there also cars behind? No Mk2's ?

Any bargains to be had on the auto jumble side?

Only one Mk2 (Oz' Police 4 door) and a Lotus Carlton.

Autojumble was no good for me but there was a lot of Mk2 stuff I hear.

See you next week.
