2015 Members Y & C Workshop
Posted by Ron Lewis
The second workshop was held on 3rd October at The Pump House Garage - thanks to Robert Jarvis for hosting again this year.
Our instructors were Peter Ketchell, Roger Hanslip, and Graham Miles. Between them they have around 150 years of Y & C experience. Thanks to them for passing on their knowledge and pointing out the quirks of our cars!
Several members attended and all enjoyed the day, including the superb refreshments - thanks to Robert's wife Lorraine (and also to Sue for the Carrot Cake - my favourite)
The cars shown are Colin French's Y, which is currently being rebuilt and can be seen in a partial build state, as well as Robert's Y which is on the lift. Robert's car was used on the lift to point out safety checks and maintenance tasks. Ron Lewis took his Y along to show off the LEDs fitted to his car (6v) - including dipping headlamps.
For more information about these, see LINKS page. I urge all members to try to get to this workshop as it does not just cover 'the basics' that many of us know - with all the amassed knowledge present, all the little quirks and tricks unique to our cars can be teased out. It also a good laugh!
