The largest gathering of Gordon England Bodied Austin Sevens post war, ever?

[Ruairidh Dunford]

If you have a GE bodied A7 then you could make this reality!

Spurred on, after a conversation with Bill (AllAlloyCup) about just how many GE Cups exist in Scotland, the idea of a GE focus at our National Rally this year has gathered momentum and, following a Committee meeting this Wednesday, I have a green light to push this (to the Palace of Industry?) and back...

The idea is simple; invite everyone who has GE bodied car to make a spectacle (I have 1st Class Honours in this field), at our Guildtown Rally this summer (see advert below).

We have verbal commitment from 5 Scottish Cups, a Yorkshire Cup, a Stadium, a Northern Irish Cup, a Scottish Brooklands model and a unique GE car - I had hoped to persuade Bernard Griffiths to bring his Sunshine Saloon or Brooklands...

So, if you have, know of someone who has, or want to have, a GE car please point them towards this post - Tom Abernethy will be in attendance.

Several suppliers of GE bodywork will also be there - their wares on display...

Please ask questions and spread the word.

Hi Ruairidh

Sounds good all we need is great weather as both Neil’s Cup and mine
May not have hoods! Perhaps Tonneaux , we may also need trailers !
We could get 7 Cups though if we both come as
Tom has 2, plus yours, John’s and the Beith one( sorry I’ve forgotten the owners name.

10 GE cars together might even be a world record?


Regards

Bill G

There are several more Bill - come and add to it please.

Nice one R,

Should be a sight to behold.

Hopefully plenty of other 7 owners will also make it a weekend to bring the cars and see it in the flesh.

Don't know which car I'll have there yet? But that's half of the fun.

Looking forward to it. Tony.

[Ruairidh Dunford]

I know the one I would like you to bring, please...

[Tony Betts]

I know what it could be,

But if you have suggestions.

Can always email me, if you don't want to spoil a surprise on here.

Just thinking about it, I could take two and really really really surprise everyone.

As only one has to be brought back?

Tony.

[Ruairidh Dunford]

We are aligned in thoughts...

[Tony Betts]

does that meen you want the oily rag?

Tony.

[Ruairidh Dunford]

Yup!

[Tony Betts]

That was my plan. If it all comes together.

The other could be to bring JJ5855 and display here in large pieces, as she needs to travel north anyway.

Tony.
