Herts Branch Rally 4th July 2010 at Hatfield House

[Kevin]

Just to let you all know that we will be holding our usual Rally at Hatfield House on the 4th July and this year it will include our own Concours competition, for more information either click on the Herts Branch link in my signature or email me direct.

[Kevin]

Just a reminder that Hatfield House charge an extra £3 for non booked entries and to make it worse this year they are applying it to all entrants so if there are 2 in a car its an extra £6 and there is nothing we can do about it, so if you turn up on the day please don't take it out on the rally team.

[Kevin]

We have just had it confirmed that Roger of Morris Spares will be attending with his usual selection of second hand spares as well as new ones and if you need anything specific give him a call on his number shown in Minor Matters.

HI Kev,
All being well I'll be there on Sunday. Unfortunately I won't have the Minor Junior this time (Blue one in signature), however I've got alot further with pedal / electric pick-up (original fibre glass shell in signature) manufacture.

People will be able to buy the shell, buy the shell and parts to build yourself or buy a completed car ! your choice.

I am also looking into modifying it into a saloon as an updated Minor Junior for all those enthusiasts with a "big" child in them!

I am not a company, just a keen enthusiast that wants to keep the Moggi alive to those young or older.

Regards,
Jules

[Kevin]

Great stuff Jules will it have the reverse gear you were hoping to sort out

Hi Kevin,

I've been burrning the mid-night oil to get ''Bumble'' finished in time.

New front suspension and modified exhaust fitted (I must be getting old - I've taken the side-exits off! )

Looking forward to a good day AND good weather.

See you there!

[Kevin]

Well we arranged the good weather as Martin requested and over 70 cars turned up, I think the only downside was in the adjoining field they decided to do some hay cutting and the dust thrown up caused even those that dont suffer from hayfever to suffer the effects.
Just one thing did anyone get a photo of the Maroon splitscreen van, the one signwritten for a funeral directors as I could use a photo of it if possible, and thanks to everyone who came.

Yes it was a pity - as a hay fever sufferer it really spoiled my enjoyment of the day and at one stage I didn't think that I would be able to drive home it was that bad! Still, it can't be helped and my eyes are now starting to return to their normal size A good selection of cars Kevin, especially the 'visitors' . Have you got a picture of the Hillman convertible you can post? (I didn't take any photos as I couldn't see for most of the afternoon ).

[Keith]

Thanks to the Herts branch for an excellent rally....a great day out...good selection of cars......

Here you go Lou, and in case you didn't realise it was a 1954 1 of only 800 produced.[frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

And of course the now infamous roof rack

And congratulations Keith on the grope and yes you do need to get out more it was bad enough getting the awkward Moggie bits correct but most of the household ones as well.....................................
