SATURDAY 19th October 11.30 – 14.30hrs…

With drawn in cold and damp nights now upon us, we felt it time to move the meetings to the weekend for the winter. We will revert to weekday evenings again in the Spring.

So, with that knowledge in front of you, we invite you to join us at The Punch Bowl, Marton cum Grafton just off the A1 or A168. This is a lunchtime meeting and arriving at 11.30 allows us to admire the cars that turn up.. Please, it is NOT an obligation, nor is it expected at any time that you attend meetings in your Midget or Sprite.

This pub offers good Beers and Great Food in a lovely relaxed atmosphere, the car park is large and safe.

We look forward to seeing you there..

Hi All.

Steve Keil is looking for a few parts as below if anyone can help.

To help with my current trials could you please put out a request for any ‘scrap’ master, clutch slave or rear wheel brake cylinders that I could use in my attempts at fitting both brass and stainless steel sleeves to prevent internal corrosion.

I have made a number of jigs and special tools and all looks good so far with a 7/8″ clutch slave and 3/4″ rear wheel cylinders fitted with brass sleeves.

Still need to make a high pressure pump for testing completed parts at 2000 lbf/in2.

Thanks

If you have a club email account, there is a bogus email being circulated that informs you that your Midget and Sprite Club email account is undergoing routine maintenance.

This was not sent by me or anyone else from the club, it is spam, please do NOT click any of the links, just delete the message.
