Chris Round

Chris Round turned up at our display for the West London Aero Club in September 07. We're hoping to see him at the regular monthly meets from here on in!

Jeff Marlow - straight after the SVA

 A real quality build - the subject of an extensive Homecall where everyone left much impressed. Jeff has now got it through SVA and proudly pitched up at John Peach's home for the Members Gallery entry! 

Pete Cherry - our Rodder

Peter lost all sense and sold his long build 2B - how could he ! But ...... our old Area Sec. came up with this beauty - It's a Yorkshire Streetrods replica of a 1930 Ford Model A Roadster. YSR box chassis, IFS with Granada uprights; live axle rear, all Volvo 240 (axle, trailing arms, coils & Panhard rod), and power is Rover 3.5 litre V8 with B/W type 65 3 speed auto. In the deal still to be collected is a Rover 3.5 litre Vitesse inj motor with a B/W type 66 4 speed auto. It needs a complete restoration; this we will do over the coming months, hoping for it to be finished by next summer. A lot of the work can be done while it is still on the road, but it will be temporarily out of action when I fit the replacement motor, rewire & respray.Don't 'arf go! AND round the bends & r/bouts!

Duncan Mould

 John Peach went along to Duncan's wedding in the Midlands, a grand event by all accounts. How smart the pair look !

 Our thanks to Chris's "much better half" for pointing out the missing "S" in the surname, clearly an eye for detail !

Peter Cherry

Peter Cherry stands by his recently (Aug. '05)  SVA'd Robin Hood 2B. Peter is a former Area Secretary for Thames Valley - I'm sure he'd have finished earlier were it not for that !
