Re: RIP Colin Holley
Very sad news, my condolences to Melanie. Colin was a real artisan craftsman and restored cars to the very highest standard with modest facilities. With an eye for detail and getting it right. Modest, usually smiling and shrugging his shoulders when complimented. Colin replaced the sills on my fathe...

Jensen SP mpg
Good evening Richard,
Great effort, I would concur 12 to 16 mpg. You are getting out and about in the SP, well done.
Best,
John

Re: SP 3FMM 1314505
Good evening Charlie,
Hope you are well. JEA 940K was the SP before yours chassis number 131/4504. Suspect filing error by factory of paperwork for 131/4504 in your car file (131/4505). How is the restoration going? I have traced well over 100 SP's now.
Best as always,
John

Re: I've had better days out. Check your nuts!
Really bad news Shaun. Dave Barnett told me to change all my studs as they are prone to failure (Hillman Imp studs). Also, Alan Smith always carried a torque wrench and check his wheel nuts, I remember him doing this at the Le Mans Classic in 2002. There is obviously an issue with the studs and nuts...

Very sad news, John was the concours king! John set the standard (with Dave Newby) that we all tried to achieve. Proper character and a great bloke.

JENSEN AT BRANDS HATCH SUPERPRIX
Well done Tim, I had a great day and it was good to see you, other members and their cars. JOC had the best turn out by some margin. Quite a number of the pre 65 touring cars were straight off to La Sarthe for the Le Mans Classic. We leave at 05.00 hours on Thursday for Portsmouth. The Six Pack will...
