From nobbc at sonic.net Tue Aug 4 10:50:31 2009 From: nobbc at sonic.net (Ron Engelhardt) Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2009 09:50:31 -0700 Subject: [Nobbc] Happy Birthday NOBBC Message-ID: <4A7866D7.1050003@sonic.net> Today is the eighth anniversary of the first NOBBC meeting on August 4th, 2001 in the old Safeway parking lot on 4th at College. Many of the handful of people at that meeting are still active in the club, some have passed on. The club has grown considerably to the point that we now number roughly 135 members. We usually celebrate with a trip out to Fisk Mill Cove but we've been there twice in the last few months so we'll wait until the 15th for our regular ride to reminisce. I'll be out riding today so wave or honk if you see me!

You can check out the itinerary at namgarwest09.com. It's an official NAMGAR Regional event and should be lots of fun. The format will be similar to the NAMGBR National that the same group (MG Owners Club) organized in 2007 at the Doubletree. It's an MGA event, although all other MGs are welcome as well as all other British sports cars. Definitely worth $40 these days. If you need any other information just let me know.

I met a guy yesterday from the Redwood Empire Mini Enthusiasts group. Peter Zedrick is his name and some of you may know him. Anyway, he asked me to post some info about their upcoming British car show in Santa Rosa. It's in two weeks on Sunday, August 23rd, at Fred Stokes Ranch at 5525 Old redwood Hwy. I think a few NOBBC members have already signed up. I checked their website and saw a couple familiar names. They've got about 70 cars signed up, most of them British. Lots of Minis, of course. Although the post July 31 entry fee is $30, Fred said they would extend the advance registration fee of $25 for anyone who signed up by Friday. Check their website for more info. www.redwoodempiremini.com Dan '98 Jaguar XK8 '86 Jaguar Series III XJ6 '66 MGB -----Original Message----- From: nobbc-bounces at autox.team.net [mailto:nobbc-bounces at autox.team.net] On Behalf Of Wayne Hunter Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 4:28 PM To: nobbc at autox.team.net Subject: [Nobbc] Car Show Napa County Fairgrounds in Calistoga on September 26, 2009.

Also, my first car, and probably one of my 3 favorites was a 59 Bugeye. I still think of that wreck, all the work I did to it, how much damn fun I had it that thing. Now that I think about it, that was probably THE most fun to drive car I've had. That's about 30 cars and 40 years ago.

Thank you all that attended and made it such a success! I posted my photos at: http://www.redwoodempiremini.com/mbbs2/photos/photo-thumbnails.asp?albumid=2 96, unfortunately I lost about 15-20 photos due to the setting dial rotating on the back of my camera, but I am sure someone will post additional pictures of the cars that were left out in my album. We had an official count of 110 registered cars, plus the parking area was full of British & European cars that came just to view the cars and a few others tha parked in the show that were not registered... so I am sure there were closer to 125 there most of the day. I am unaware of anyone that was disappointed or upset that registered for the show. There may have been a few grumblings that I am not aware of regarding the number of MINIs in attendance, but it was Redwood Empire MINI Enthusiasts that put on the show so registrants should have predicted that. The winners were almost entirely non Mini-MINI cars, and some beautiful vehicles were acknowledged. I for one voted for the Nash Healey and Brad's 3000. The Nash was beautifully restored and was a stunning car. There was an Alfa Romeo parked behind the show that was a gorgeous car (but did not enter). There were gifts/door prizes awarded throughout the day (by drawing) and the awards program started around 3:30pm. I think the single most enjoyable moment was when the gentleman that had the pre-1960's VW convertible won an award. I never saw such a smile on anyone's face!

Nxxxxxxx'x in NY was a dead end - they gave me a bit of a brush off when I told them I just needed the capillary tube replaced and didn't want the entire gauge brought up to concours standards. The shop I won't name in the Peninsula took a very long to repair a gauge for me some years back and the repair didn't last.

I agree that it was great venue, nice group of people; with it being in our own back yards (or front, for some people), this is a fun show that I hope continues. It was fun seeing John's TR250 with the Surrey top fully installed and the new dash - the car is really shaping up. I thought there would be more time to look at other cars and mingle, but there was a lot of interest in our Elan DHC and Sarto's Elan coupe, so it was actually hard to get away from that spot for very long, though it a lot of fun doing show and tell. Besides meeting a lot of nice new folks, I had a lot of fun hanging out with fellow members, mostly John, Walter and his wife Gwen, and Sarto, and meeting Brad. It was also interesting to see how many local classic car owners, including a couple of Minis, are not members of NOBBCor active in our club. I'm not a big show participant, since our cars aren't likely to win any awards, but love attending them, and always enjoy shows of an eclectic nature, which this was. Considering it was the first year, I suspect more NOBBC members will enter in the future, and I think it could grow to include even more European cars, which was the intent of the REME folks. Ron - do you think we should update the web site to show the new meeting site at Bad Ass Coffee?

We had an official count of 110 registered cars, plus the parking area was full of British & European cars that came just to view the cars and a few others tha parked in the show that were not registered... so I am sure there were closer to 125 there most of the day. I am unaware of anyone that was disappointed or upset that registered for the show. There may have been a few grumblings that I am not aware of regarding the number of MINIs in attendance, but it was Redwood Empire MINI Enthusiasts that put on the show so registrants should have predicted that. The winners were almost entirely non Mini-MINI cars, and some beautiful vehicles were acknowledged. I for one voted for the Nash Healey and Brad's 3000. The Nash was beautifully restored and was a stunning car. There was an Alfa Romeo parked behind the show that was a gorgeous car (but did not enter). There were gifts/door prizes awarded throughout the day (by drawing) and the awards program started around 3:30pm. I think the single most enjoyable moment was when the gentleman that had the pre-1960's VW convertible won an award. I never saw such a smile on anyone's face!

The face was almost perfect, the oil pressure part worked but the water temp pigtail was broken. I had it exchanged for a reconditioned unit from Scarborough Faire in Rhode Island that specializes in MGA parts. They probably carry the Smith's version as well. It cost me $160 part exchange. I don't know anyone who just sells the pigtail because that's all I wanted myself and it didn't seem that hard to fit one. The person to talk to at Scarborough Faire is Cecelia and if you have a conversation with her less than 5 minutes you'll be doing well, her number is 888 647 2787 and she's a delightful and very knowledgeable person. Also on the A the speedometer worked but the odometer was broken, I had that repaired by Nisonger in NY. Cost was $170. I had my Smiths speedometer on my MGB repaired by Nisonger again, cost was $170, plus the cost of a new glass and bezel, for a total of $185. Turn a round time with Nisonger is about 3 to 4 weeks with 2 weeks being shipping to and from NY. They do good work and I know of other people who have had gauges repaired by them and have been pleased.

Nxxxxxxx'x in NY was a dead end - they gave me a bit of a brush off when I told them I just needed the capillary tube replaced and didn't want the entire gauge brought up to concours standards. The shop I won't name in the Peninsula took a very long to repair a gauge for me some years back and the repair didn't last. Has anyone used the few other shops that do this work, and can they please share their opinions? Andy - did you have all of your MGA gauges rebuilt, or are they new?

He did it overnight for me, charged me $93.75 plus tax and freight.. It worked for two days, but my newly rebuilt motor was putting a consistant 100 PSI, when it should have been putting out about 60 PSI. Consequently, the gauge started leaking again. I adjusted the oil pressure down to 60-70 PSI, and re-repaired the gauge myself, and it has been working fine since. The gentleman's name is Morris, Tel 818-758-9500. I can't blame the failure of my gauge on him, with my oil pressure as high as it was, and he is referred by Moss, so who knows.

After three tries and $180. they couldn't get it right. I give them credit for trying everything including a new cable. I don't know about divine intervention, but after about six months the thing started working fine except it reads about five mph fast and at a stop it still reads 5 mph. I guess it's really not fixed but at least it doesn't have a 35 mph wave in the needle anymore. My Morgan has a TR-3 engine. Factory manual states this engine's oil pressure should read 70 psi @ 3000 rpm warm, so it would seem once Mike adjusted his oil pressure where it should be all is right with the world... Or at least the guage. All of your suggestions are very helpful. Thanks very much.

Wendell - they also carry magnolia-faced gauges, which are probably close or identical to cream color, if you have Smiths gauges. I just got off the phone with Chuck, and he said they've been selling gauges all over the world because of the crappy dollar exchange rate, so their stock is low. England is on holiday much of August, so replenishments are a ways off, but they can make and repair gauges, and can swap dials and bezels as needed. As John mentioned, it can be cheaper for new gauges (these Smiths are made under license by Smiths technicians) than some repairs; a dual oil temp guage costs $17 less than a repaired Bourdon tube on a customer's gauge, and has a 2 year warranty instead of a 1-year.

Perhaps at the next event you can see what Morgan used. They are Smiths gauges but quite unique to Morgan. For instance the 4 in 1 gauge that has oil press, water temp, fuel, ammeter around a large face with the "Morgan" script in the center. Some other Brit cars used a similar layout. Of course this company offers repair service.
