From the Editors

Having done this newsletter nearly every month for 27 years, it can become rather routine—the obligatory contributions from the Chairman, Secretary, Events, Library, Membership, Other Clubs etc. for which we are most grateful. But beyond that, one never quite knows whether  anything else will turn up in the Inbox….Will anyone send in a report or photos from the last event? Will there be a technical contribution?

After all the photos from the GoF last month, we were wondering if there would be anything to feature this month. Well we should have learned by now to fear not…For Behold!! I bring you good tidings of great joy. We have an embarrassment of riches We have flyers from the Felpers and Pullens on the events they are sponsoring in September and October, photos from the Cederstrand Tour/Ice Cream Social (thanks to Elizabeth Page’s Australian sister, Renee Livingstone), and photos from the Tech Session.

Technical articles abound, with a most enlightening report from the Moss Motors staff (forwarded by John Seim) on recent developments in distributor rotor production. The Jerrys have come through with articles on retrofitting directional signals to your earlier cars and some hazards to avoid while chroming.  

And there are several little vignettes.... thank you from Darlene and Margie for the “goodies” provided at the Ladies Tech Session and donors at Big Bear; a recipe from Sandi Campbell-McClain for the Coconut Macaroons she served at the Garden Tour and Tea a couple of months ago.

A member we don’t hear from often, Frank Grew, provides a glimpse into the past with some costs for work done on his TD from the ‘50s and 60s.

Ted Davis has put together a collage of old MG sketches and asks us to offer a suitable caption. Jim Franks presented a Sacajawea necklace to Cindy Morteson for winning the award at the GoF.

A number of us were aware that Ed Reynolds was called away from the GoF by a message that his wife at home had been taken to the hospital. We are happy to hear that she is improving.

All in all, what we started out thinking would be a lean issue has turned out to be quite a full plate to digest. Thanks to all the writers, photographers and contributors who made it possible.

And remember to keep the wheels turning, or if your T-car is not on the road, maybe it’s time to keep the wrenches turning so you can join us on the road.
