Don't forget to come along to visit the Club stand at the NEC next weekend (13th - 15th November).
Should be a good selection of cars (probably a Smith Special, 600 Multipla, 125, 132, 127 Sport, and Strada 130 Abarth), and it's always good to see members up there. It does make all the difference - if you want to bring doughnuts, sweets, beer, etc, you'll get an even warmer welcome!!
alas gavin, I will not be there all weekend this time, on tues day (3rd nov) was offered some weekend work for this month, may make sunday, plus i need to get funds together to pay for repairs to the 130 chassis, must sell off my hoard of panels/trim/etc. for various fiats, found a 500 inner front wheel arch for example,
now what panda parts could i bring? mk 1 door A post? mk1 door p/s? plus a door skin p/s? oh! the list is endless! or end up with a very full panda! bring a wedge of dosh! ring me, as i have changed fones(again! only lasted 2 weeks!) so ur no has gone boo-hoo! jenni is our leader! (all bow!) oh! by the way that inner wing i have, n/s front for a 126 not 500. and.......127 trim, seats brown, blue, bonnet mk1 very used, door d/s, used,new wings! early i think! strada doors early/later, for the 5 door type, know of a 2 door d/s new in primer, (ahh! last one in the country!)
Brian, sorry i missed your call im working somewhere where i cant use my phone - grrr ! Im not really interested in mk1 stuff, its more the mark2 id find more usefull - have you got a windscreen amongst it ??

Good to meet everyone at the show today. Our stand proved popular due to the diverse range of the cars on show. Thanks to one and all for making me feel welcome. And thanks to Jim /Tim for the pint! The nice gesture will be returned to you next year, at Castle Coombe, no doubt!

I think Neil got the mix of cars just right with all of us talking to people for most of the weekend .It just proves what a great following our Fiats have.

(only kidding mr blunt!) like the picture of the pop band jenni and gavin are stood next to, him with the velvet jacket looks familar?glad you had a good show, no cars were harmed in the making of this show ,while i was at the compound where my blue 130 is, i managed to break the inside door handle! (oh bother!)
