  Delorean boat - BTTF
Posted by: PEDelorean - 17 Apr 2024, 18:36 - Forum: Back To The Future - Replies (3)

Hello,

I've built a full size Delorean pedal boat (with an electric motor as a backup). I've no idea why I did it. I must have had a lot of time on my hands! [Image: icon_e_smile.gif]

From a distance, it resembles the BTTF Delorean ... but you might have to squint a bit! [Image: icon_e_smile.gif]





You can see build videos of my silly, and very homemade, creation here ...

Hope you like it [Image: icon_e_smile.gif]

PS. No real Deloreans were harmed in the making of my boat / videos [Image: icon_e_smile.gif]

  Really Retro Show, Staffs, 7 July 2024
Posted by: Guinney1971 - 16 Apr 2024, 11:49 - Forum: Midlands - No Replies

Hi all,

Can people let me know if you'd like a spot on the Club Stand at the Really Retro Show near Stafford this year?

The organisers have given us a least 6 spaces, but I need to get back to them asap with names and reg numbers
so that I can book you in and pay for the tickets.

I'll lay on snacks, beverages, and the gazebo as usual, all you need to bring is your car and yourselves.

I've also mentioned this on the Club WhatsApp group and it'll be on the Facebook page & other socials, so hopefully 
between them, we can get to as many members as possible to gauge interest.

Ideally I need to know by the end of April, but Mid May will have to be the cut-off for people wanting to come.

I trust this email finds you well.
 
Last year I met with one of your Club members at a car show and whilst chatting he gave me your contact details.
 
I am writing to inquire as to whether your Club would be interested in attending our car show  this year which is being held on the 2nd of June.  The show is attended by owners of both British and European historic vehicles with an emphasis on Classic American ones.
 
There will also be refreshments available as well as auto jumble, traders and live music and children's entertainment.
 
This will be the  Swansea American Auto Club's  third annual show  which is being held at the Riverside Caravan Park, just  off junction 45 of the  M4, Ynysforgan Farm, Morriston, Swansea, SA6 6QL. ( Please see attached flier).  
 
The show was very well attended last year by many different car clubs including  the American Auto Club UK; the Corvette Club UK; several Ford Clubs as well as Military Vehicles and American Police Vehicles.
 
 If you and your members would be interested in attending or you would like further information, then  please contact Gary Morgan (text) whose details are on the attached flier.

  Ignoring marker lights laws
Posted by: Andy81 - 12 Mar 2024, 23:17 - Forum: Off topic talk, general chat etc - Replies (7)

Ive seen so many people in the uk just re-installing their marker lights. On the street etc. 
Im so tempted. 
Think it looks way better, or is there a way of adding a switch to keep it road legal?

And where would the wires have been cut to keep the indicators only?

Thanks


Or is it ok now that they’re historic vehicles ?

  What is a fair price for a working auto trans governor?
Posted by: sc15 - 11 Mar 2024, 15:05 - Forum: 4 - Transmission - Manual & Automatic - Replies (1)

Further to my search for a replacement governor, I have now located one. The problem now is to establish a price that is fair to both parties. Would anyone like to venture an opinion and help us arrive at a fair price?
