Re: MOC South West monthly meet

I'm even further away than Dane, but hope to make it to a meet or two this year. Mind you, the standard of the beasties in the photos makes mine look positively shabby!
Peter Reynolds, Helston

Thanks for the response Peter. Shabby is not an issue with me, it's the shape that counts and it being driven!

I will try and pick somewhere further west as the weather improves. Peter.

Don't worry Peter(Marlin1798). Moll is a bit battle worn and carries her campaign scars with pride! Just about to be attacked with the Waxoyl sprayer in her nether regions. I take her everywhere and she fits in well.

Peter(greyV8) the clearout prior to the likely move is a great generator of stress but I'll try to get a "pink chit" for the next meet....we may be moving that month. many thanks for organising us so well.

Re: MOC South West monthly meet

I will be there, but not in the Berli due to its rear end now being in bits! New rear bushes and springs here we come :-)

Don't panic! Team greyV8pete will achieve rear end rebuild by the weekend. I need deadlines!

Judy and I hope to attend. Our local Kit Car club had a meet up for breakfast at Blue Anchor, and then a photoshoot at St Audries Bay today. 18 cars present and the sun shone until most people had arrived home. I have the Roadster back on the road, touch wood, going well. David.

Re: MOC South West monthly meet

Good news David. Apparently (deliveries pending) I will be in the Berli after all...!

Thanks David. Looking forward to seeing you both there. Peter.

Re: MOC South West monthly meet

Hi Pete,
The house move appears to be going through although the buyers are being a bit confused about exactly when (any time from 16th March onwards !) I have a huge amount of clearing up on the farm so I don't think Cheryl or I will be able to make a meeting until probably May but I'll keep in close touch.
I'm glad that the reworked exhaust is working OK. I wonder how the Superflex conversion is going on Dave's rear end?
Nice to speak on the 'phone the other day, Cheers, Dane.

Thanks for the update Dane. Sorry that you can't make the SW Meet but quite understand. Hope the sale / move goes through without too much hassle. We look forward to seeing you when the dust has settled.

Dave's "rear end" is receiving Supaflex bushes as we speak! Planned completion ready for the run to the SW Meet on Sunday. Peter.

Re: MOC South West monthly meet

Eight people attended the March SW Meet at The Merry Harriers for an enjoyable lunch. Good to see you all again.

Only two Marlins though as it was a very wet and dismal Sunday, especially dissappointing weather after the the very sunny previous day, so all tin tops excused.

Happy Dave was there with his Berli following successful Team greyV8pete rebuild of rear suspension. Also my Hunter was there following completion of fitting the new 4-1 exhaust manifolds. Hence only our two cars in the attached photos.

Next meet is on Sunday 12^th April. Details to follow on the SW Meets page. Peter.

Hopefully the weather will be as great as it has been today

Re: MOC South West monthly meet

Judy & I hope to be there, we have been invited to Ernie Warrender's for a BBQ at Wedmore, but feel it might be too much UKIP as he is the candidate for WSM. He used to work for Marlins at Plymouth in the very early 80's, he has promised me an article for the Pitstop so I reminded him again on Sunday !!!!! David.
