Chairman’s Welcome By Walter Reynolds Hello everyone, and welcome to Summer. This is my third ‘Chairman’s Welcome’ and one could say that I’m half-way through my one-year term. We’ve had a few things happen since my last message, some of them good, some not-so-good. In early May we were not able to go to the scheduled supper at the 50s Din- er due to renovations and a change in ownership. Thanks to Alan Inglis we were able to visit Brodie Bikes, a bike manufacturer in Langley to visit owner Paul Brodie’s one-man shop. Here we spent a very informative even- ing learning everything there is to know about restoring and re-creating old bicycles and motorbikes. A full report can be found elsewhere in this Roundabout. Also in early May, Mike Speke resigned from the Club so we no longer have a regalia person at the Club level or the VCB level. As such, the new system for regalia purchasing is stalled. This means that until we have a Regalia Coordinator and a source for new regalia items, we won’t be able to take advantage of the Club’s financial credit for regalia purchases nor will we be utilizing the ‘up to $500.00 from VCB finances for regalia purchases’ voted on and approved by the membership at the May 2 nd event . May 20 th was the Vancouver ABFM; yet another spectacular weather day which saw several VCB members taking home a plaque. More about this elsewhere in this Roundabout. The 4 th annual ‘British Invasion Car Show’ was held last Sunday, June 4 th at the Two Lions pub in North Vancouver. Expecting around 50 or so cars we made up 70 packages but only 23 cars showed. What a disappointment! The saving grace of sorts was that enough people showed who hadn’t regis- tered which compensated for those who had registered but didn’t show. Perhaps it’s ‘intuitive fore- sight’ that at the 2016 Branch AGM, the membership approved a committee to investigate alternate locations for the 2018 Car Show. A second trophy tied to the Fort Langley Run was recently found by Steve Hutchens. This trophy, the Fawlty Towers Trophy is presented to the person who has the worst time on that year’s run. The last time it was awarded was in 2011 and Steve was the winner. The Fawlty Towers Trophy has been res- urrected starting from 2017 and this year’s lucky recipient is John Rennie for his tale of woe of try- ing to get to the run. And now, volunteers: Tom Popovich recently volunteered to be the third member of the 2017 London to Brighton organizing committee, assisting Malcolm Tate and Tony Cox. Ken Miles recruited volun- teers for both the ABFM tent and the Two Lions car show and thanks have already been sent to all those volunteers, including members who just showed up and helped. Volunteers are always needed for short term projects like car shows and runs but also for the longer term as in the case of Execu- tive and appointed positions. A decision was made at the April 6, 2017 VCB Executive meeting to again hold the Christmas Social at the Eaglequest Golf Club on 152 nd Street, Surrey. Don’t forget that the Club AGM occurs over the weekend of July 7, 8 and 9 ending with the Brits on the Beach at Transfer Beach, Ladysmith. There will be no Branch event for July that is unless some- one organizes something. Enough from me so till the next Roundabout, “Drive just fast enough to stay ahead of the rust”. Walter Reynolds, Chairman, OECC-VCB. VOLUME 22,NUMBER 3 THE ROUNDABOUT PAGE 2 Thames 150 By les Foster While it only feels like one hundred and fifty years since I began to restore a Thames, there is a his- toric connection. In 1967, when I was 16 and sporting a fresh new driver’s licence, it was Cana- da’s 100th Birthday and national pride was at an all time high. I was no exception and I decided to mark the event by refurbishing my first vehicle, a 1951 Ford Thames E83W van. My brother had purchased two of them along with a friend with the abortive plan of building a hot rod from them. The best of the two, a blueberry farm truck which The Thames at the Vancouver ABFM this year cost $40 was all original and ran very nicely. I cov- eted it and one night, when my brother was short of money to attend a dance, I saw my chance. I struck a hard bargain at $15 and his signature on a set of Transfer Papers which I just happened to have ready, and the Thames was mine. Despite his seller’s remorse and remonstrations the following day, I held firm and a life-long association with the marque was born. Along the way I picked up the moniker, “Mr. E83W” and have become something of an authority in this very narrow field often help- ing others, all over the world, with advice or parts for their restorations. During the 1967 Centennial Year I sanded my van down to bare metal with an electric drill and sand- ing disc in our carport, coating it nightly to prevent rusting with a film of stove oil borrowed from the barrel of heating fuel in our “oil shed”. I filled a few minor dents and a bit of rust behind the rear wheels with bondo, carefully sanded the repairs and by summer’s end it was ready for primer and paint. My brother got me a deal on the materials from his employer, an auto body supply company, and a local body shop sprayed it for $80. It looked good in 1966 Studebaker Mount Royal Red (how was I to know Studebaker would go out of business soon after!). The finishing touch was a Canada Centennial decal on the windscreen and a red and white Centennial plate bolted above the BC licence. I was proud of the job and despite an engine fire a few months later that damaged the bonnet finish and returned that area to primer, I loved that truck. We were inseparable and to drive the rural roads of Richmond with the windscreen open and the instrument needles dancing in the dark of evening was pure joy and freedom! That was 50 years ago…my God, can it really be that long? Now it is Canada 150, and finally my goal of truly restoring a Thames has been realized. Between that first Thames and now there have been many Thames, whole or in parts, but never a running driving one. Over the years I collected vans, pickups, and even an Estate E83W. Eventually all of these acquisitions were to contribute in some way to my final project- restoration of my present Thames pickup. Before I go into that, a quick history lesson is in order. The Ford E83W was introduced in March, 1938 as a purpose-built commercial vehicle that offered larger carrying capacity and greater perfor- mance and maneuverability than many of its contemporaries. Originally badged as a “Fordson” in Britain, the Thames name was reserved for export until 1952 when all E83W’s became “Thames”. De- scending from the original British Ford in mechanical design (the 1932 Model Y was designed for the British by Ford in Dearborn), the E83W used the same 10 HP (RAC) engine as the Prefect car but had much more robust axles and suspension much like the full size U.S models. The E83W in fact shares many smaller components as well as general design features with American Fords of the mid-1930’s. It gets its styling cues from the 1937 U.S. Ford truck (the grille), and the 1935-36 U.S. Ford cars (the door and door window shape and belt line pressing, flat windscreen and generally streamlined look). Under the then-new Ford coding system E=England, 8=1938 (year of introduction), 3= 10 Hp “C” en- VOLUME 22,NUMBER 3 THE ROUNDABOUT PAGE 3 gine, and W indicated short front or forward control (the E83W engine and drivetrain is offset 4’’ from the centreline to allow the driver’s footwell to be alongside the engine giving a short front and more load carrying space. The passenger has no footwell and thus the optional passenger seat was raised higher to compen- sate). The E83W was the only civilian model Ford produced all through WWII at the Dagenham, Essex, factory and was widely used by civil defence organizations and by government ministries and the military in support roles.

  • [Open PDF] Rover P5b Manual Gearbox
    Rover P5b Manual Gearbox Download Rover P5b Manual Gearbox The Rover P5B 3.5 Litre, an example of British style and flair, with a great deal of nostalgia, for most of us. The P5 line started with the Mark I in 1958, also known as the 3 Litre. Under the hood: a 3 Litre six-in-line which also came in a more powerful form in its successor – the Mark II from 1962. Not sure what you mean by " lock up"but the advice on using a different gearbox is great, do you happen to know if the size is similar to the BW35 as space is very tight on a p5b. As a point of interest could the range rover tail section of the gearbox be altered for 2 wheel drive easily or is this what the sherpa parts are? It was Rover’s first attempt at a monocoque chassis, resulting in a solid car with a hefty front subframe that supported the engine, front suspension and gearbox. Initially, the car came fitted with a 3-litre straight-six, with seven main bearings that meant it was exceptionally smooth, although gutless in automatic form. Rover P5B: Engine: 3528cc-V8-OHV.

    Rover P5 and P5B Buyers Guide ! Page 1! of ! 14 Rover P5 and P5B Buyers Guide˝ The Rover P5 (3 Litre) and P5B (3.5 Litre) are classic cars in every sense. They were successful, reliable, well-built cars that were well-regarded when new. They arguably represent the pinnacle of British car manufacturing (before the problems of the 1970’s beset the industry), embodying most features that make a British car ‘British’: a lovely interior in wood, leather and with thick carpet, and external styling that is solid with just a hint of raffishness (especially the P5B Coupe with its chrome wheels, front fog lights, lowered roofline and V8 engine). Thoroughly engineered, beautifully styled, stylishly appointed and good-to-drive, they can be very rewarding cars to own. If you’re reading this with a view to buying one of these cars, hopefully this site will be useful to you both now and when you’ve bought your car. Take a look at the Information page to understand more about the different models you could choose, and the Development Story to understand how the P5 and P5B were developed and how they changed over time. Also take a look at our series ‘The Rover P5B Coupe In The Nude’ where we follow the dismantling of a car by an enthusiast (Cyrille) - this provides a very useful insight into how these cars are constructed. Of course you should also subscribe to this site for regular news and updates to avoid missing any new features. Also see below for other buyers guides, join the Rover P5 Owners Club, read or ask questions on the Rover P5 Club Forum, and attend a Rover P5 and P5B event to speak with experienced owners.
