"Right then....after our club meeting last night we have decided to give you more details this year as we are doing things a little different, In past years we have stopped of at two or three workshops on route but this year we are leaving Newlands and heading for a autojumble so empty that boot and bring a little pocket money Also at Newlands you will all get a food voucher and after a few hours of bargain hunting at the autojumble we will head out for a nice cruise through the country side to our final stop where we will have the grub laided on for you and you can just chill out and discuss those gems you bought, a relaxed day out with like minded people ....should be fun, enjoy! " Hope this good weather keeps up, might even take the roof off!! Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: Manky Monkey on September 28, 2011, 09:17:17 PM Curious -wonder which jumble that'll be then?
Test date postponed by a week to give us more time Paul, but Terry T's wiring the dashboard almost as we speak, so will take you up on the speedo bits if you have any to hand -maybe pass them to Phunkie at the weekend as he's local to us, & I'll settle up with you? Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: phunkie hiboy on September 29, 2011, 06:10:06 AM maybe pass them to Phunkie at the weekend as he's local to us, & I'll settle up with you?

Rick, I'm really sorry for that. Not my intention to snub anyone, just not good with faces sometimes.

You couldn't miss Rick in his Manky Monkey T Shirt and his Manky Monkey embroidered shirt which also has Chevy Rick embroidered on it! He was really flying the flag for MMM. You better watch out Andy or he might start charging. 8) Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: Manky Monkey on October 03, 2011, 09:10:01 PM ;D Rick's our MMMotors pin-up boy :-*
I wasn't on the SSR run yesterday, but I did get to see everyone before they set off. The start point for the Picnic run was Newlands Corner in Surrey, a carpark & cafe with fantastic views out over the Surrey downs. It's a favourite with dog walkers, mountain bikers & horse riders, as well as bikers & classic car buffs, so is always busy on Sunday mornings. It also happens to be about half a mile from where Taz & I live. Paul, (GoForest), had some bulb holders for my truck project, so I nipped up to collect them enroute to the workshop. I was literally just passing through, but ended up staying to see the chaps off. A gloriously warm Autumnal morning with not a cloud in the sky -perfect for a drive out. If I hadn't made it in time, GoForest was going to pass the bits to Chris, (Phunkie Hiboy). "Good job you're here -saves me having to look for Phunkie" said paul. "I'm here!" said Chris, stood right next to him. We all know each other well here on the screen, but I often forget that most haven't met each other in person. A few snaps: Whiff's woodie.

Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: Manky Monkey on October 03, 2011, 09:19:28 PM By 9.0.clock in the morning the sun was already blazing, leading some to seek shelter under the trees.
Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: Manky Monkey on October 03, 2011, 09:26:04 PM Forum member & SSR member Deadly Derek's Diamond T truck. He & Mrs Derek provided the afternoon meal from their mobile burger emporium.
Doesn't show in the photos, but the ground drops steeply away from the carpark, down a rolling grassy slope & away into the misty distance. Title: Re: SSR Hot Rod Picnic, October 2nd Post by: Manky Monkey on October 03, 2011, 09:36:21 PM I'm pretty sure the guy in this Jag, (D type replica?), wasn't actually there for the run, but ended up tagging along anyway.
