(formed 1967) Former Vice President Brett Wilson in his 1930 Roadster with Amanda in, taken at a Static Display not too long ago, Amanda Wilson our former Treasurer is standing behind. An Open Letter to All Members (Hi Tim I am going to ask you to put the following in the newsletter as a letter to the editor since I do not know how to thank the Austin 7 Club or the members other than by a few words of thanks. As you will read below I think the world of the club and the members as they are truly great people and keep the Austin 7 family going. Thank you - Brett Wilson) To All Austin 7 Club members, Over the last 11 years that we have been involved with the Austin Seven Register of QLD I have always said the Austin 7 Club is the best club that I have ever been in and over the last 2 years you all have shown me why that statement was true. After my ruptured disc and the 3 surgeries to fix it I had offer after offer to help with anything that we needed. I never did take up the offers as I was too proud and I did not want to put any one out in any way. Then one day I was told (not asked mind you but “told”) that the club members were coming to help tidy up around the yard and the shed and they were going to get in a skip and do everything that 1 Amanda and myself couldn’t.

  • Quinton Motor Club Ltd
    Quinton Motor Club Ltd Forewo rd This publication is the result of over two years of investigative research and subsequent communication with many past members of Quinton Motor Club. No formal record of the Club ’s history or its activities existed before this task was under taken. I would particularly like to acknowledge the involvement of the following: Mike & Hilary Stratton , who were the driving force behind the w hole project and have spent countless hours in research and communication with past members , far and wide, a s well as many long journeys from their home in Devon to meet with the rest of us in the Midlands. The other members of the organising committee for the fiftieth anniversary celebrations for their hospitality at meetings, contribution of ideas, research fo r memorabilia , general good humour and enthusiasm that this milestone should be fittingly celebrated (in alphabetical order): Ray Barlow, Susan Butcher, Mike Harris, Nick Jones & Graham Towns hend. This publication has only been made possible by people tur ning out cupboards, garages and lofts to unearth long forgotten gems regarding the Club and its history. Foremost in this is Mike Adams, who has been the major source of information in that he has not thrown ANYTHING away sinc e he joined the Club in the mi d -1970s. Three big cardboard boxes arrived at my house one day in the early Spring of 2008, Ginny was not hap py when they were returned just over a year later, she thought she had seen the last of them..!! Others, not on the organising committee, that h ave unearthed memorabilia are (in alphabetical order): Peter Bayliss, John Davi s, Steve Eagle, Peter Gray , Neil Henderson and finally Dave Bullock who attended the first meeting of the Club and whose recollections of the early years has enabled me to piece together the scant infor mation that still exists from fifty years ago..!! We all hope you enjoy this publication and that its contents makes you smile and brings back happy memories of your time in Quinton Motor Club .

  • Pogrammme 2013
    E4 Our ‘proper’ Oldtimer numbers this year are about the same as last year, but our Classic entries—1973 on if in a C2 club—have grown significantly so that our numbers this year will be nudging 400—yet again a record. As the format of this programme, which we introduced last year, has proved successful, we’ve naturally stuck with it. You should be able to get this and last year’s programme on your mobile etc from www.Oldtimer.uk.com, where you can request email circulars on our rallies; next year we intend to accept entries online via our website, www.Oldtimer.uk.com—however, if you still require a paper entry form for next year, please either give the Secretary at HQ here today or send her by post a Stamped Addressed Envelope, as in future we will only be sending information by email—if you’ve had to pay postage bills lately you’ll know why! As many of you will know, the Airshow planned for 8th June this year didn’t happen—although by way of compensation the Red Arrows did come, giving a wonderful display lasting nearly half an hour. With just seven days notice we were allowed to organise a rally on The Leas here, and 40 cars turned up to take advantage of the offer—as seems to be MG TA 1937 usual for our events, in magnificent warm sunshine. The central photo on the cover taken over the bonnet of a mag- nificent Silver Cloud III gives the flavour! As ever, we are grateful to our sponsors, Folkestone Town Council, for the prizes and plaques, our judges and mar- shals From Folkestone Automobile Club and the Lions, local landowners and businesses for displaying posters, and Shepway District Council for smartening up The Leas for the Bank Holiday.
