HBVCC Restoration Awards.
Every year the HBVCC give out awards for recent restorations completed, with
the only criteria being that the vehicle has been out on an official club run.
As the AGM is to be held on the 9th of June there are not many chances to
bring the vehicle out on a run to be eligible.
If you have completed a restoration on a club eligible vehicle recently in any
category, [either Motor Cycle, VET, VV. PVV, PWV, P60V, or HRV,] and the club
are not aware of the vehicle please contact myself or a committee member as
soon as possible. Trevor Charman.

29SPARES NEWS// By John Durry Hi All, not really a lot to say, but over the last 2 Tuesdays cleaning up the entrance to the spares department, firstly to get the Chandler in and secondly to start arranging our stock and getting ready for the 9th May swap meet, which we are pricing & packaging into lots ready to be taken to the speedway pits. We attached 2 photos of the Tyre Moulding machine & the motor meter, which are now displayed in the hall. We had some success with our sales last month, moving some Tyre’s & Jeep steering gear, we are going to put the trunk on Trade Me. So only 2 weeks to go till the big swap, so for getting ready for that, other than that there is not a lot to tell. Until next time Regards John Durry CLUB SPARE PARTS CORNER For any enquiries phone Brian Taylor on 027 4436009 or contact the Club’s Spares Dept. on Tuesday mornings between 9am & 11am on 06 835 1483.
