MG Car Club of South Australia website. 5. Dean Hosking has a mate who is looking for an XPAG engine block to work on virtually to destruction, I would give him an old Morris block to play with, anyway if you know of one, let Dean know. 6. Bob Schapel found an original pre- war sales booklet issued out of the MG factory at Abingdon. A most useful guide to all things MG apparently, simi- lar to the Green & Gold cookbook I am told, has everything you need to know. 7. Ian Hobbs, now the proud owner of the recently acquired Pearson TC from NSW. Picked up that very afternoon, Ian was spooked by the logbook that we have been filling out forever. Look at the photos, it’s a great car, did 1500k’s with- out rising above 85 degrees C, burns no oil but dropped some on Dean’s pavers I am reliably told. Welcome Ian to the dramas that are MG TC. The wrap. Firstly to Dean & Anne, thankyou for a great night that exceeded all expecta- tions lovely food and great ambience in that super clean garage. Thankyou Anthony for your kind words and for bringing mother Joy along to the meeting, keep it up. 10 Apologies from me if I left you off the email list and for the misprint of the ad- dress in the magazine and website. Dean consulted the owners at #3 Han- naford Rd, they were quite disappointed not to see the cars, but all credit to Mr Superclean Dean, a nice sign was af- fixed to the kerb just in case. NEXT MEETING. The Golds at Murray Bridge , 3 Florence Street Murray Bridge. Start assembling at the Crafers Park n Ride from 6.00pm on 7 March.
