April 2024
This past month has been taken up with National Meeting activities and unfortunately it has shown up with a smaller group than usual attending the clubman run, but we did get a couple of events in before the panic started.
I know of two diff centres that have been changed, another has a late change to a new set of tyres, and yet another has had a visit to the mechanics for some fine tuning.
Another job that I have been doing was to replace the steering column coupling rubber, this resulted in no play at all in the steering after having about a three inch play. But I do know now why the steering column on a Magnette is called “The Magnette`s Chinese Puzzle”.
Some of us did get to attend the Hawkes Nest Motorfest early in the month, it was the biggest show that they have had, with over 400 car`s on the park. Let`s see if we can top that at our Euro Day.
By the time you get this the National Meeting will be over for another year and we will be getting back to our events
Octagonally Yours,
Denny Bowden,
President MGCCHR
