Im heading over from Hudds... anyone going along this way mind me tagging along in the 1300?? I always get lost on the M6!!

Ed

Will come from Holland in a 1987 Mini 1000

we are coming up from eastbourne , east sussex, so not really the right side of stafford.

and our first time to this show so looking forward to it



but the mk1 is not on the road so having too use the bini,

seriously thinking about making the trip down, even got the better half interested, so you never know?

I'll be there as usual. Get there early because the queues do build up !! It's a good place to find that elusive part with many trade stalls, not that many cars (especially early ones) to look at but still a good chance for a rummage and a natter.

Too far away for me

and no hope to find any W&P badges I am afraid

I'll keep an eye out for you Jens, is it the small square one you're after ?

Pete, Can I bring your rear seat down for you ? i'm fed up with taking it to shows and bringing it back again.
Nick

If you can, thanks Nick, sorry !

ok, well see you all there!! I'll be the guy putting mini parts into the boot a Harvest Gold 1300.... hahaa!

To the captain: Jim, it will be good to meet if you do make it.

Thanks Pete, and yes its this little thing

but I am also after the W&P sill badges, as JanSpeed stripped my car for almost every badge it had.
They didnt have any gearknobs/steeringwheel centers, so these were left alone.

I have a genuine WP dealer badge = http://www.google.com/imgres?q=badge+wo ... x=79&ty=34

and a dash badge, which is simelar, but very small.

All other WP badges would be of interest ?




Beaulieu 2011 MCR meeting 008 by JC T ONE, on Flickr

I'll be there, need to pick up an extortionately priced manifold from Maniflow

Well Pete, your seat made it safely back to my shop once again mate. If you are trying to lose it, you only have to say so.
Nick

whoops pete,


well we made it there and back from the south coast.
first time i have been up to that show, and was really good and with the most amount of trade stands i have ever been to,
met a few forum members, spent too much, but made a good day of it

My first time at Bingley and first time selling crap, met a few forum members and sold to a few as well.

Many thanks to the good people who helped me out on things including pricing

long old weekend and my hands look like a mechanics again! - cant be doing with gloves

I didnt get to see much of the show due to being in charge! and boy was it cold saturday setting up!

Paul

What a brlliant show. It was warm (almost too warm??) well organised, reasonably priced and packed to the gills with decent trade stands. Bought bundles of stuff. As a result I am now insolvent , in part thanks to a few forum members. Really nice to meet you guys. Paul , great to meet with you. You are a real enthusiast. Hope your team got home safely. Keep in touch. Cheers. Mark

Mark

Home at 9.30 mate had to unload van with a few bits left plus the other stuff i bought on the way to the show - feeling it today!

Hope you had a decent run home

P

Was a decent show this year, loads for sale, busy with people and some very interesting non UK cars.
I reckon they need to turn the heating up next year though, it wasn't hot enough

Andy

I setup stall saturday and it was so so cold, so for the sunday i actually left my pj bottoms on under the jeans, t-shirt, shirt jumper and daftly coat (it housed the float) and finished with 2 pairs of socks.

Kept it all on all day and glowed cherry blossom red (when the heating and bodies arrived) facially and everywhere else - probably all day!

reduced my waist size in a day - my bird (sorry wife) would pay good money for that!

Im not used to the weather up that way obviously
