I will be there Friday also. Although no longer racing, Race Retro is the season kick-off and a traditional start to the year.
Nick PS will someone please buy my Chev Camaro and race it ... Nick |

All 3 days doing Rally Radio, no doubt will go indoors from time to time and spend lots of money.

For what I think is the first time ever I shan't be there. Soddit. I always enjoy this. Ah well there's always next year!

Best to suggest a time, Iain - 2pm, Friday, maybe? (not that I'm suggesting people can't buy your stock at any other time - other days and times are available! )

Do you think somebody could spot complete rear lights/Lenses in VGC for a Capri Mk2? If you wanna make some pocket money, same units for a Mk1 facelift also said 1,5, dont hesitate they are much sought after…

I'll keep my eyes open - may be some around in the odd scrap yard, still, too. Most have long been crushed but there are still a few old-school ones about. |

Merci Richard, c'est très gentil. This kind of part is really hard to source, no problem for the Escort owners, but hassle for the Capris…*To give you an idea, a pair of almost new rear lenses for a Mk1,5 is circa 300/350 £…

Just sent the reply, thanks again Richard. Not many parts available for Capris Mk1 face lift, 2 and 3. Re the Mk2 model, I think they made 4 different headlights types, with or without wiper and so on… Sometimes we're happy to find a Lucas instead of Hella but this will give some discussions at the MOT center to explain why the glasses give such different lighting… Remember "code européen"?

I was exhibitor there in 2007 or 2008, in the main hall. I remember the parking as an issue for new comers, queuing and mud dont go well together, but all the auto jumble part is amazing. What a choice. From a single bolt to an aluminium door skin for a Cortina, nice flea market! Is this place always in the shadow or did they add some lamps?

IMO that was it's high point. The jumble has gone downhill since then. I think I first exhibited in 2010.
