We're back for the Classic & Restoration Show at the NEC Birmingham with our stand of fine examples of coupes in various stages of restoration!

It's a great day out for you and the family and you can get £3.50 of a single day ticket, or £2 off of family/child/multi day tickets by using our club code 'CCROVCPM6' when purchasing your tickets :D

Two months gone and two months to go till the event so who is planning to come along.

If you are availabler to come along and help the please let use know and we can start working our a volanters list or each day, you will get time of to look at the rest of the show as well.

If you just want to come as a paid viseter use the discount code above and book early as this means not only do you save but the club might earn a extra wrist band or two so the can be more poeple on the stand to help out.

Cars wise we are currently planing on 3 cars but might work out how to fit a fourth in.

The first restorded car has been confirmed and we are in talks on possiblities for a car or two to be doing work on and a kind of barn find and would rather use members cars than our own if possible so if you have anything to offer please let use know.

This request first when out in the news letter in December but if you missed it or are still pondering now is the time to let us know.

That is up to the car owners to sort out and ask if the needed any help with anything.

They need tyo confirm thier attendace first and as said above the is still a space for possible one or even two more sutable cars

My FDH could be available as a stand in car if the club is struggling. Will need to be trailered in obviously but planning to make a start on stripping it down in a couple of weeks and putting an order in for engine parts later today. If I strip the head down and get it all machined I could reassemble it at the show if I clean up and paint all the bits before hand. Just an idea
