LIBRARIAN — PETER REID

Well the hard work is paying off as
all the workshop manuals and
driver’s handbooks have been
accounted for and processed. If
you still have one that I don’t know
about please tell me now before it goes to the computer for final audit. Now of course there remains the task of
sorting the new Tech. category so donations are really needed soonest. In this regard I must record the generous
donation from Lindsay Elliott who has parted with some very useful and valuable volumes which have particular
interest for our vehicles . So many of the trade lists refer only to the newer vehicles, which ours are really not. He
has also given some shelf labels which will add a professional touch to the shelves. With clean windows and
washed curtains the room is looking brighter. Now to clear the seat stock and the racks can be extended. Don’t
forget that this is a Club resource for the benefit of all members. Perhaps later this year we can have an open
day to show off….but I did say perhaps and later.
Regards to all, Peter Reid
As mentioned in the minutes we have been given some shelving,
which John Mallia & Peter Reid collected from Brian McNaughton,
a friend of mine, seen here with me a lot of years ago with an
Oldsmobile I once owned. We’re supposed to be getting ready to
paint it instead of clowning around. I have known Brian since Boy
Scouts, he played drums later on, is listed in “Who’s Who of
Australian Rock’n’Roll”, I’m not, though we played in the same
band at one stage but then I swapped my guitar for a rifle.

Hi. I’m based in Coffs Harbour
and have some parts from a
1929 Messenger/Wolseley
County.. There is a diff, with
hydraulic brakes, also another
diff housing, a front axle and
brake housings, two dampers
and some assorted bits. I’d like
to sell them as a lot. David Mann
