Then they also set the record with 23 squeezing into a classic mini. Love the feet sticking out of the window !! (James McKenzie) Follow us on Facebook.com Lawrence All British Car Club Inside this month’s issue: • Sir Alex Moulton. • Old Gas Stations. • Freddie Mercury’s Rolls Royce. • Susan’s Minutes • Eric’s MGB Transplant, Cont. • One Last Shot ! Page 1 Lawrence All British Car Club Lawrence, Kansas Jan. 8th, 2013 In Passing; From James McKenzie Sad news, Sir Alex Moulton died at age 92, it was announced Monday Dec. 10th. Brilliant man, engineer, inventor, best know for designing the mini suspension. Also his bicycles are brilliant and he was still coming up with new designs for them right to the end. He worked as an engineer in the aviation business for the RAF during WW2. He started a company for five years developing steam engines for automobiles in the 50's, most people don't remember that. In the 60s he developed several nice bicycles and continued designing them and manufacturing them. They are brilliant designs, rubber suspension and I will get one someday. I got to meet Dr. Alex Moulton by chance in Buffalo NY in 2001. We were at the Buffalo City Water works looking at giant steam engines that had run the pumps for the cities water supply before they changed to electric motors. Its a museum now. Walked outside and there were two fellows admiring my 56" English light roadster. Started chatting with them about bikes and Ordinaries. The younger guy was from Buffalo and had on a Mouton Bicycle T-shirt. I said that I had always admired Moutons and have always wanted to buy one of his bikes. The tall, distinguished English speaking gentleman looked at me and said " I am Sir Alex." I was so surprised I hardly new what to say. We shook hands and had a nice visit. When I got back to Lawrence a week later I went across the street to see Charlie Hartman. He just about croaked when I told him. He said" did you get his autograph?" I didn't, I was so surprised that I never thought about it. Charlie was disapointed in me! Anyway I was quite glad that I got to meet him and have a nice chat about bikes with him. He admired my English Ordinary too! I was planning to write an article for the newsletter about his steam engine designs so I will do that for next months newsletter and I will continue about his rubber suspension for cars and bikes the following month. Dan Hines convinces Eric TheMG worldnever is made a better one place of these!because of Sir Alex, mini fans in countries all over the world will be sad to hear the news. Monday, the 10th, I just got my big box of parts and rear subframe for my mini restoration project. Included were four new rubber cones, the Moulton rubber springs for the mini. James !

Page 3 Lawrence All British Car Club Lawrence, Kansas Jan. 8th, 2013 Pres. Eric’s MGB Transplant Part 3. By Eric Frana So, a couple months ago you were teased with photos of a nice shinny Rover 3.5L aluminum V8. Last month was a little discussion on why. This month I’ll discuss gathering parts. Over 2012 Memorial Day Weekend, I learned my cousin in Michigan was getting married at the end of July. Providing the opportunity to pick up the engine conversion kit, and the wedding was about 9 weeks away, it was time to quit talking about it and pull the trigger. A quick call to Mark at D&D Fabrications officially fired the gun, or in this case a grenade launcher (not quite a cannon). Mark sent me on a mission to save money and purchase a 5 speed transmission without his Mark-up (no pun intended). He recommended a Ford V8 T5 transmission for price and availability. From his experience, Camaro transmissions are becoming harder to find and becoming more pricy… It was strongly recommended I purchase How to Give Your MGB V8 Power by Roger Williams. Great reference book. Craig’s List located a late ‘80’s Mustang V8 T-5 transmission for reasonable price within the area. It was said to have been rebuilt, so it was purchased and over to the transmission shop for a good look over. Glad I did, because it needed some serious repairs. First major purchase complete. Not off to a good start. A few hundred dollar venture ended up about over $1k. Maybe I should have gone with a certified rebuild Camaro transmission for about the same dollars and had my ideal match. Oh well, water under the bridge. Kept in contact with Mark over the next several weeks, primarily what my end goal was and asked his opinion on several items. Break upgrades and suspension upgrades, item locations, and so forth. He was always open to providing input and periodically get extra tidbits of information about D&D Fabrications, including an order to provide sixteen aluminum block engines for eight hovercrafts in Alaska. July 5 Mark called indicating engine parts were on back order. To keep on schedule for end of July delivery, he offered one of the hover craft engines. It was a $1k upgrade to balanced, Level 3 build including fuel injected head upgrade holding larger valves and producing about 250 Hp. Discussion determined my budget didn’t allow for the upgrade, unfortunately this meant I wouldn’t be able to pick the engine as planned, but did receive several bolt on parts. ! Page 4 Lawrence All British Car Club Lawrence, Kansas Jan. 8th, 2013 Eric’s MGB Transplant Part 3. By Eric Frana (Continued) Approximately two months go by before the engine is delivered. I continued to gather little parts over time. Radiator Mark provided was an experiment. A guy who has done several conversions provided it. Was said to be a bolt in, however it didn’t have necessary clearances. When asked, was told that’s normal and I had to modify my car. Guess bolt-in in this case means you don’t just bolt it in. Modifying the mounts to fit my needs, ended up jamming a saw blade through the core (even after I protected the core and it still happened). Found a replacement on the internet found a replacement. Took my time and modified mounts. Hey, it gave me an excuse to purchase a mig welder!

The individuals and products are: • James Dyson, an inventor, entrepreneur and product designer, and his innovative designs of wheelbarrow and vacuum cleaner; • Mark Sanders, a product designer and design consultant, and his novel design of folding bicycle. 2 In addition brief comparison is made between these cases and similar examples of innovative mechanical products created by other individual inventor/designers. These are cases of designers and innovators either working alone or in a small consultancy business and the focus is on how creative individuals conceive ideas and develop them. Nevertheless, the insights into the creative process provided by these cases are also relevant to the characteristics and practices of designers and engineers working in large R & D and design teams. 2 RESEARCH METHOD The case studies were developed using a similar research method. This first involved background research on the products and inventor/designers concerned, using published articles, patents, etc., followed by preliminary interviews with the individuals.

  • Press Release Tribute to Dr Alex Moulton 1920
    Press release 11 December 2012 Tribute to Dr Alex Moulton 1920 - 2012, by Norman Foster Before 1962, the basic design of the modern bicycle had changed very little since the early 1880s, when the ‘safety bicycle’ was developed in England. All subsequent designs followed this established model until Alex Moulton came along and literally reinvented the wheel. The essence of the Moulton bicycle is its simplicity, and in each of its fundamental elements, a radical rethinking of convention. Rather than the large wheels and hunched riding position of the standard bicycle, Moulton introduced the concept of smaller wheels and a space-frame system with rubber suspension. The result is a lightweight, fast and remarkably strong machine. An aesthetic object, it is also a delight to use – flexible, responsive and comfortable to ride. Like other engineered objects that I find exciting, its appearance and performance are indivisible – it has a kind of sparse beauty. It is also recognised the world over as the ultimate riding machine – the highest speed officially recorded for a bicycle ridden in a conventional upright position was set by 1986 by Jim Glover on a Moulton AM7. Alex Moulton was a remarkable man and a brilliant engineer. His professional life was devoted to the research, development, design and manufacture of advanced and innovative products. Before turning his attention to bicycles, he worked alongside Sir Alec Issigonis at the British Motor Corporation, developing the rubber suspension system for the Mini; and Moulton’s subsequent hydragas suspension systems were a feature of numerous British production vehicles. I have many fond memories of time spent with Alex Moulton, especially at his home in Bradford–on–Avon.
