I trust this email finds you well.
 
Last year I met with one of your Club members at a car show and whilst chatting he gave me your contact details.
 
I am writing to inquire as to whether your Club would be interested in attending our car show  this year which is being held on the 2nd of June.  The show is attended by owners of both British and European historic vehicles with an emphasis on Classic American ones.
 
There will also be refreshments available as well as auto jumble, traders and live music and children's entertainment.
 
This will be the  Swansea American Auto Club's  third annual show  which is being held at the Riverside Caravan Park, just  off junction 45 of the  M4, Ynysforgan Farm, Morriston, Swansea, SA6 6QL. ( Please see attached flier).  
 
The show was very well attended last year by many different car clubs including  the American Auto Club UK; the Corvette Club UK; several Ford Clubs as well as Military Vehicles and American Police Vehicles.
 
 If you and your members would be interested in attending or you would like further information, then  please contact Gary Morgan (text) whose details are on the attached flier.
 
Kind Regards

I am delighted to extend your Club an invitation to the Vintage Sports-Car Club's 90th Anniversary Gala Day, set to be held on Saturday, 10 August 2024, at the Stratford upon Avon Racecourse.

We are thrilled to open this event to car clubs of all eras and types, the beauty of motoring history is represented in its diversity. We would love to have your club participate, showcase your cars, and compete for the prestigious ‘Best in Show’ and Reserve Champion titles.
Please note that your club is to select its Concours Winner to be entered in the ‘Best in Show’ and we have some celebrity judges to help make the decision. There will be discounted tickets to members of registered car clubs, details of which will be communicated separately.
 
To express your club’s interest, kindly send an email to 90th@vscc.co.uk by the 21 June 2024.

Ive seen so many people in the uk just re-installing their marker lights. On the street etc. 
Im so tempted. 
Think it looks way better, or is there a way of adding a switch to keep it road legal?

And where would the wires have been cut to keep the indicators only?

Thanks

Further to my search for a replacement governor, I have now located one. The problem now is to establish a price that is fair to both parties. Would anyone like to venture an opinion and help us arrive at a fair price?

Hello, I’m a new(ish) DOC member - I’ve actually been a member for a while, and have followed the forum for even longer than that, but after lots of life events getting in the way I’m hoping I might soon have more time to indulge my passion for the DMC-12.

I am lucky enough to own an ‘83 registered/grey/manual, which was imported in 2019 from DMC Midwest and then restored and converted to RHD by Chris Nicholson.  I haven't had that many opportunities to use the car since it was finished, but I’m hoping to get out to a club event at some point this year to say hello in person.

Best wishes!

Dear Classic Motor Enthusiast,

The Sheffield Abbeydale and Sheffield Vulcan Rotary Clubs are organising a charity Classic Car & Bike Show at Whirlow Hall Farm www.whirlowhallfarm.org on the 7th July 2024 and hopefully it will be of interest to you and your members. The Educational Trust will be the major beneficiary of funds raised on the day and the event will be part of their Summer Fayre so will attract numbers well into 4 figures. Although the Summer Fayre is one of their many annual events, this is the first time we have organised the motor show so we are expecting lots of interest and have already taken bookings.
The price of entry does include admission to the fayre so you can have a great day out and support a worthy Sheffield charity. For more details please see the attached flyer and/or visit www.rotaryclassicmotorshow.uk or to contact us, email events@vulcanrotary.org.uk.
Please feel free to forward this message on to any other individuals or clubs who you think may be interested.
Kind regards,
Stephen Walker and Jim Youens
Rotary, Abbeydale and Sheffield Vulcan

Publicity – Lytham Hall Autumn vehicle Show 2024

Hi all, I have been approached by someone I met at a local show to see if I could do a groom pickup, drive around and drop off for a wedding in Burton upon Trent on 24/08/24.  Unfortunately I can;t make it - can anybody else?  Let me know and I'll put you in touch.  Rich

The generator within my governor has failed so I am looking for either a complete governor or just the housing containing a working generator. The governor refurb services only deal with the printed circuit boards and rely on a working generator.  Hopefully there is a spare one out there!
