From bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net Fri May 2 05:43:27 2008 From: "Kevin Cowan" To: "BCMU" Date: Fri, 2 May 2008 04:43:28 -0700 Subject: [Bmcu] Anyone from around SLC going on tomorrows tour All, I need help getting a box of papers from Mitch Johnson. Is anyone planning on doing the tour tomorrow that lives near me (5300S, 1800E in SLC) and that could pick up a box from Mitch during the tour and bring them back with them? Once the box is in town we could make arrangements for them to be picked up or dropped off. I would do it my self, my MG is headless at the moment.

I don't think a street motor would benefit much from any demon tweaks of the carb needles. The mixture problems are usually related to other problems like sunk floats, leakages, etc. Even with the Sprite race motors I only had a couple of choices and usually ran the same needles in SLC and Riverside. I think we changed them for Aspen a couple of times. -----Original Message----- From: bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net [mailto:bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net] On Behalf Of rmalsed2@juno.com Sent: Friday, May 09, 2008 9:33 AM To: wbeech@flash.net Cc: bmcu@autox.team.net Subject: Re: [Bmcu] SU Carb Needle for Utah mountains For what it's worth: I drove THE 10,000-MILE TD from Seattle to Nova Scotia to Palm Springs,CA (=11,434 miles, 83 days) on THE SAME NEEDLES AND CARB ADJ. , including over the great divide @ 11,000+ feet , I forgot to make any adj. for the Rockies ride.....

Various members of the BMCU have been attending this event for a number of years and the tradition continues on May 17th. Pugs and Diane Pivirotto will once again be the unofficial hosts of the Saturday night activities. The festival is free and parking is available across the street at 400 South and State Street for a nominal fee or you can usually find a parking spot on the street in the adjacent neighborhoods. Ethnic food from around the globe can be purchased at the festival as well as liquid refreshments. The line up for this year has not yet been announced, or at least not yet posted on the internet as of the date of this article. However, the Saturday night band is usually great entertainment and has historically performed on the North stage. The Piv's will be hanging out in the refreshment garden on the north end of the grounds. Hope to see you there. -- Pugs and Diane Pivirotto _______________________________________________ Bmcu mailing list Bmcu@autox.team.net http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/bmcu From bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net Fri May 16 00:03:49 2008 From: Jon Zaremba To: "Chris Kantarjiev" , "Friends of Triumph" Date: Fri, 16 May 2008 00:03:28 -0600 Subject: [Bmcu] Photos from My Recent Trip...Hwys 95, 24, and 12!!!

I bought it last year when I thought that I would have time to drive it as a spare car but do not have time and hate to have it just sitting here. I bought to replace a tr6 I had thirty years ago when in college but I am not thirty years younger nor is there any time that I ever get to go anywhere without more people than fit. It is a cream coloured surrey top but I have only the hard top. The interior was redone before I purchased it and is saddle colour (tan). The dash looks to be original and is in very good condition. There is no visible rust (probably always garaged) There is no body damage and I think that it is lovely and drives well. It may burn a little rich but so did my tr6. I do know who the previous owner was (owner of Told plumbing) and it has been in some parades as there are stickers on) I live in Pleasant Grove, Utah and I do have some photos. I am asking 11,500.00 My husband's phone number is 801 361 3354 if you would like to speak to someone. He will be out of town tomorrow so it will be hit and miss to get hold of him. charmaine _______________________________________________ Bmcu mailing list Bmcu@autox.team.net http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/bmcu From bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net Tue May 27 18:55:48 2008 From: "Sales" To: spridgets@autox.team.net Date: Tue, 27 May 2008 17:56:04 -0700 Subject: Re: [Bmcu] MGB for Sale You British Car lovers should like this news http://www.yachtpals.com:80/artemis-transat/boston _______________________________________________ Bmcu mailing list Bmcu@autox.team.net http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/bmcu From bmcu-bounces@autox.team.net Sat May 31 14:07:51 2008 From: Gary Lindstrom To: BMCU Membership Date: Sat, 31 May 2008 14:07:43 -0600 Subject: [Bmcu] Jackson Memorial Day Run report and photos See http://www.britishmotorclub.org/2008/MemDay08/ Enjoy, --Gary p.s.
