Well a good day was had yesterday. I couldnt get to Fraser due to work, but was able to duck over to Tennyson for an hour or two.
Ran into Inc, and saw Uncle Ho's beasty.

First time in years haven't displayed one of my old clappers (P76, Austin 1800, Humber, Land Rover etc).
Other than the name and the "union jacks" around the place - it was a top day:twisted:

Anyway here's a few pics

Uncle Ho's 2a with 2 awesome games beside it, and a mad refurbed 2a

This thing was built in Scotland in 1928 - hadn't been driven for 40 years or started for 15. Really? You couldn't tell :eek: :wasntme:

Probably was a great show. But, I wish these clubs could get their heads together and make better use of the calendar. On Sept. 17th. there were the following events:- Speed on Tweed, Beaudesert Swap Meet, All British Day, and motor-cycle racing at Morgan Park. I would have liked to go to all four. However Beaudesert swap meet is the best financial return so, no choice, Beaudesert it had to be. there is now no major event until Gatton HMCC swapmeet last weekend of October. Plenty of spare weekends to spread out the events. Why not talk to each other and have an Event Dates Co-ordinator at The Combined Council of Motoring Clubs? I know this will bring a chorus of "But that's our date, We've always had that date" from clubbies. But common sense should prevail. Fewer events on a given date mean better attendances at each. Last year, there was the ridiculous situation on a weekend in June of swap meets at Carindale & Pine Rivers, Displays by Jaguar,MG, and Vintage Car Clubs, and racing at Qld. Raceway.

it belongs to kevin baker, the lucas spare parts man.

he used to tow it behind his 6cyl rover sedan.

it carries a bucket load of lucas electrical bits.

it is now towed behind a mitsubishi van or similar.

(i would like to give it a lift home :P)

G'day Folks:)
Thanks FenianEel for the pics of the "Rocket":) it looked a bit dull alongside the 2 "Games" and all the other shiny polished vehicles.

The ex-army LWB trailer of Kevin Baker's, from memory, sits on Rover sedan springs with a std trailer axle,Rover 100R wheels and hubcaps, it sits that low from the weight of spares that he usually carries as the van is often used as a camper:) if you need Lucas electrical parts he has just about everything, if not he will try to get them for you, a real gentleman.

The hubcaps are the type off any of the P4 Rover cars from the cyclops 75, 80, 90, 105 etc. I'm sure you will find that the P5 caps had a more pronounced indentation around the copper inlaid badge.

The caps were also fitted to the Royal Review Land Rovers.
