From Wednesday 4th April our monthly club nights will be moving to The White Horse Inn, 118, High Street, Barton, CB23 7BG. Please come along and let the committee know what you think of the new venue.
The club has a copy of The Austin Seven Manual (Doug Woodrow) which is available for club members to borrow for periods of one month. This workshop manual contains descriptions and diagrams of all the major mechanical parts of the Austin Seven and will be a fantastic aid if you are about to embark on some mechanical work. Let the Secretary Paul Lawrence know if you would like to borrow it and you can either collect it at a club night or have it posted to you at your expense.
A 2018 Cambridge Austin Seven & Vintage Car Club Calendar is now available. They are A4 size, spiral bound at the top with one month per page. The pictures for each month were all entries in our club photographic competition, taken over the last few years.
They are £6 each (plus £1.50 post and packing if you would like it posted to you).
Alternatively you can collect yours at club night on Wednesday 3rd January or at the Annual Dinner on Friday 19th January in exchange for £6 cash or a cheque made payable to Cambridge A7&VCC.
Please contact Gill Davis by email: editor@ca7vcc.co.uk to place your order.
I hope you are able to support this initiative and are looking forward to buying one!
