Pinky The Panda - Raising Money For Charity

Hi Everyone,

Just the heads up on Pinky The Panda.

Pinky is a 1992 Fiat Panda limited edition "Pink" model. He (or she, there is some debate on the gender!) is being used to raise money for Children in Need and Race for Life (Cancer Research). The idea is to raise money for the purchase of Pinky (already done), use him to raise money at shows for his restoration, then to travel round the country raising more money at shows & events, and finally to sell him at auction for the 2 charities.

Several of our members are involved in this already, and Pinky will be on our stand at the NEC Classic Show this November. He will be the first unrestored/motheaten car I can recall on our stand at an NEC show, but it's all for a good cause, and Pinky will be raising money for Children in Need at that show.

Please support this worthwhile cause by coming to see us, and donating money ideally!!
