Beaulieu Autojumble
« on: May 14, 2014, 06:33:26 AM »
Spring Beaulieu is upon us again and as usual I will be helping Mike out on his Microcar stall . Very much looking forward to it and the weather forecast is very good - lovely .

A blazer and straw hat for that man.

Things start to turn toward a Jumble plot of things to get ride of here. Where is the best clearance jumble these days? Used to be Newark in the recent passed. Prior to that probably Beaulieu. I was unusual in taking on Mannheim, not least as I had a multitude of continental parts to sell into that market. Remove that from the plot and those other two venues did well in their heydays.

The old Microcar Rallies were good too, but the takings drifted away to a point of not being worth while. The last one I recall being worth the effort was Toddington, a long time ago now, and I was a co-organizer of that. A busy weekend indeed.

Is jumbling back?

Sent you an e-mail with pictures attached of the lens and backing/bulb holder.  Go forth and find us Frisky owners some Wipac indicators.......
Enjoy the weekend and look forward to seeing some pics on Monday of all the goodies you have found.

Frisky indicators ought to be trafficators energetically waving up and down, didn't they Rob?

Ah. The Bubblecar Museum Rally. First mention of that. Might be able to go over there.

Aren't they the young ladies that hang outside some Soho night clubs?  ;D

A very British haul. But fruity and good, should be one of your five a day. Marc showed me his findings. There are still bits to get if your motivated.

strange but the mainly Britishness had not occurred to me ! LEP , WIPAC , PMG and  VILLIERS .  Believe me - and you will al , not all these parts were in this condition when found ! paint, oil grease , earth etc etc , i have spent a fun day relaxing in the sun and cleaning stuff up . I would of course love to find is a use for all the cannibalised parts that are NOT wanted  :)
