Look like I can't make it tomorrow, but the minor now has a new master cylinder (from a volvo 340 apparently)

Hi SADMOGers,
the EKMM are heading your way again for a bank holiday weekend- and we would like to meet some local Minor enthusiasts while we are there. We are setting off in convoy from Kent tomorrow early morning, and expect to arrive at our hotel on Hayling island in the afternoon (travelling by A roads all the way).

Last year some of us met Carlo and saw his MM convertible and Jay joined us for the Beulieux motor museum visit. I'm not sure of the exact itinery yet, but we are going to drive around the Goodwood circuit, I think on the Friday and do lots of other things Sat and Sun. Anyone wishing to meet up with East Kent club or at least some of us and join us on events and runs, if possible, then PM me and we can exchange mobile numbers.

Don't want to put you off but I think there may be a few missing this week. I won't be there and I believe Colin, Rob and Jay will still be on the MOT.

I intend to be present next week...

Callum what carb do you need if you can't get the dellorto sorted? I have a selection of HIF44s spare

I Have just won a "broken" welder on ebay... a Sealey SuperMig 170/1 for £16. Put a fuse in the plug (old one was missing) and it seems to work fine (although I havent actually tried welding with it as I dont have a spool of wire to go in it) just tested it with a bit of old wire stuck in the torch!

Heres its (newer model) little brother http://www.sealey.co.uk/PLPageBuilder.a ... ctid=10127

good deal you think?
