Octagon November, 2016

Photos From The
Past - But Whose?
An early member of the Club came along
to Concours this year. With him, he brought
some photos from his early days in the Club
when he had an MGY. His name is Peter
Stokes and his membership number was
119, a number which is still assigned to him
should be choose to rejoin the Club. He is
pictured (left) with his MGY in the late 50s.
This is Peter with his car but what is the building in
the background?
Are the cars lined up for display or are they getting ready
for competition? Who are the ladies in the photo?
Some of his photos are reproduced here
in the hope that some of our other early
members may be able to identify where
the photos were taken and who are in the
photos. Please email me - vprojects@
internode.on.net - if you can help and I will
pass that information on to Peter. Larger
images of these can be viewed on the Club
website on the first of the Nostalgia pages -
http://www.mgccq.org.au/nostalgia.htm.
If you are wondering who could help, you
may be interested to know that, on the
Club membership list and therefore on our
Octagon mailing list, we have six people with
membership numbers in one or two digits
-- Bob Barnett (Member No 3), John Muller
(No 15), Ken Ebeling (No 24), Ted Jones
(No 53), John Cranley (No 54) and Ann
Thomsons (No 96) - and too many with three
digit numbers to list here! There are a lot of
people with a long time loyalty to this Club!
Peter’s Y is on the left but who owned the other Y and the
Magnette? What event were that at?

Who are these ladies in their very typical 50s outfits?

And who is this lady - she can also be seen in
another photo.
