PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Cooee & Greetings! As we approach our third month of inactivity it seems long ago and far away that our last Club outing was the Murray Bridge River Cruise way back in March, the day after our last General meeting. Committee meetings have continued, in some form or another, in keeping with the ever-changing regulations to continue the operation of the Club. With further easing and increased numbers at gatherings may see meetings and some Club activities resume soon. Since our last correspondence, the Committee has received resignations from Registrar Peter Tooth and Federation Representative Ian Marsland. I would like to express the Club’s sincere appreciation for their years of service, commitment and dedication they have given to the Club. We wish them well with

their projects in the future. With our AGM due in July, consider standing for a position, nomination forms and this year’s vacancies are available from the Secretary. The Swap meet has not been totally cancelled for this year but has been postponed for a possible date later in the year, if restrictions allow, and a safe event for patrons and members can be achieved. Discussions with the Gawler Council, regarding our club facility, are still progressing favourably. With less than 200 Membership Renewals still outstanding the Club Membership renewal process is functioning well, thanks Bronwyn and Craig, and we are well past the halfway mark to achieve our previous listing. By the time you are reading this there will only be just over two weeks to complete your renewal, receive your membership card and finalise your rego before June 30th. If you have not yet renewed please do so now! Thanks to the Registrar Team, logbooks are steadily being processed and are also over 50% complete. With restrictions easing, two Logbook signing days have now been allocated for the 14th & 21st of June, see the Events Calendar for details. Please continue to use the drop off as early as you can to avoid an overload at the last moment. You may be the one disappointed that your vehicle cannot be legally driven on the road from July 1st. DO NOT blame the Registrars! Many of us are busy in our sheds taking advantage to catch up on those neglected projects. Barry Sweetman is working hard on his 1924 Hudson Hearse. Peter Tooth on his Bellett G.T. Dave Kent is back in the shed finishing off the Austin 245 2 Ton flat tray truck. Peter Bailey on son Ricky’s Pontiac. I also hear Corrie Wake has dropped Jags and Minis for a newly acquired Mercedes! Let us know what you are working on and send in your stories and photos to the Editor. For those on the mend, Barry Bywater, Don Gage, Alan Martin, June & Dave Kent, a “A Big Get Well from us All” and hope to see you back on the road soon. Hang in there!!! We will be up and running shortly! Cheers for now and all the best! Trevor Unsworth, President.

Corrie and his car collection containing a collage of cars and paraphernalia

Well I’ve had a few and then some, Cars that is, a passion for cars and the paraphernalia surrounding them, that followed me from Balaklava to Hope Valley, into Adelaide and onto Gawler. A passion I have had since aged 12.

The first car I drove was a 26 Chevrolet Buckboard when I was aged 12 (called “porous” after its porous piss radiator). It was painted yellow with black stripes as it was used to retrieve the glider tow cable after a glider was winched into the air at Everard Central near Clare, “you could see me comin”. I was flying gliders solo at aged 15 before I could legally drive a car. I lived at Balaklava in those days, then moved to Prospect but still got to the Gliding Club for air time, gave up gliding and onto bikes and then at aged 26, I stuck with cars.

Bikes were the first foray into the motorised world for me with lots of them passing through my young hands, starting with a Triumph Thunderbird, then some T160’s and Bonnevilles and a 1936 BSA V twin that needed finishing, (still does I think, with its new owner). A mate lent me one to ride for awhile, unusual riding position, handlebars held where pant pockets are. I sold that on as I needed cash to pay for the kids and got another Chevy so the kids could fit in the back seat. When the two boys were old enough they helped me in the shed restoring a 27 Chev, a lot of fun together at Hope Valley. I also had the Chev Roadster in the shed then waiting its turn to be restored.

I bought a Ford Fairlane in 1974 for my son, still in the shed, matches the other one he has a Balgowan, another father/son project waiting to be restored.

I started my mechanical apprenticeship at an early age of 15 with my boss, a good sort (only one disagreement in 6 years). I remember he had ginger hair. I then went

on to become Service Manager at Treloar Motors, then to City Mazda then Mitcham Toyota.

After that I bought a Seven Day a Week Deli and a Detailing business at the same time which caused big headaches. I sold the Deli after 2 years.

The cars I have had over the years include first up, a 26 Chev,then I was offered a 27 Chev (for $200) that I drove around the block in Hope valley (back in the early days 50 years ago), then a 37 Chev Sedan followed by a 37 Chev Roadster. I bought four 37 Chevs as a package once, then a Chev red hot rod with a Chevrolet 350 V8 motor that flew, an Oldsmobile or two followed then by Pontiacs.

The Pommie bug got me with a Mini Deluxe bought from my mate Bobbie Carr, then back to a Pontiac and another Mini but a Cooper S this time, with lots of buying and selling too, all part of the fun. I have a rule that I sometimes recite, if it “#%*!s” up three times, move it on, so lots of buying and selling over the years. I still have an early Cooper S. The Pommie bug s now full blown, I’ve had a Daimler V8 ( which is still in the club with another member), Jaguar XJs convertibles, Jag XJ6 with a Chev V8 in it (I still have that), a Daimler V8 and a Holden Monaro for awhile, a few others I can’t recall at the moment including lots of parts cars that are a major part of the restoration game.

The VC Brock Commodore was a fun car to own (also still in the club), a few of the cars I have owned have continued to be enjoyed by other club members, a motorbike, a Mini Automatic, a Pontiac, a couple of Oldsmobiles, the Hotrod and a couple of Jaguars (one was pink, belonged to Mary K Cosmetics). I love to see them still about, it’s all part of the history of the vehicles.

My favourite car at the moment is the Jag XJ6 series 2 with a Chev V8 motor. I drive it more than the XJS convertible or E Type, but have just added a Daimler V8 to the family (swapped for a Mini and some cash).

I still buy and sell spare parts with other car club members, that’s part of the club ethos, that way everyone wins and we help each other.

I joined the Gawler Car Club when a mate Don Ormsby told me about this newly formed car club. I am still waiting for club owned workshop/clubrooms to happen. I have always looked at the membership fees and funds raised to be used to progress the club. It has worked for other car clubs!

I have always done my own mechanical work and have painted lots of cars in my shed including the Club Mini car project from a few years ago, 5 Minis in total. It helps having a hoist. My shed has always been open with a can of soft drink available and I have seen many come thru the door as I am there a lot of the time. We have just celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary and I thank Kay for her support over the years.

Kay has only recently pensioned her old Jag off for a newer Mercedes with only 16000 ks on the clock.

Cheers Corrie

The Collingrove Hillclimb is a 750m long bitumen circuit with 9 challenging turns climbing nearly 70m from the start to the finish line. It is situated approximately 7km South of Angaston off the Angaston Mt Pleasant Road and been in operation since 1952. The Opening Meeting was held on the 15th of march 1952 with J. F. Crouch in a Cooper Mark 5 setting a record for the course 39.95 seconds. The current course record is 27.25 second held by Brett Hayward in a purpose build open wheel race car he built himself. I started competing at Collingrove in 2016 in the challenge trophy series in my 1969 HT GTS350 Monaro in the 2-wheel drive over 3.5L class which was open to anyone who had a cams licence which in that year I placed 3rd in my class out of 6 vehicles. People ask why I race the Monaro up at Collingrove as it really isn’t practical or competitive as the track is only 3m wide with some tight corners, one of the answers I give is Because I Can. The main reason I run the Monaro up there is back in 2014 at the Monaro Nationals which were held in the Barossa Valley held a driving event as part of the nationals at Collingrove which I was entered. After that day of competition, I just had to go back and compete more as I had such a blast having a go. From then I attended a cou-ple of come and try days and then acquired a CAMS licence through the Walkerville All Cars Car Club and competed in the Challenge Trophy Series which consisted of 3 race meeting for the year which we would usually get about 6 runs up the hill in 1 race meeting. After that first year I started looking around for a different car to race instead of using the Monaro but I was looking for cars which I had in the past like Ford Escorts or Datsun 1600’s or 180B’s, I even considered an old Isuzu Gemini but finding them wasn’t easy and if they did pop up for sale they were well out of my price range so decided to invest in a new set of wheels and some semi-slick com-petition tyres for the Monaro which improved my times by about 2.5 seconds which at the time were in the 42 second bracket. In 2017 I joined the Sporting Car Club to keep my cams licence and started competing in the Winter Cup Series which again is open to anyone with a cams licence but only Sporting Car Club members are eligible for series trophies and have 4 race meeting a year in which you must post a time in at least three of them to qualify. At This stage my fasted time I have posted is 39.4 seconds which is about 5 seconds of the record in my class which was achieved in a

late model RX-7 which is pretty hard to compete against in a 50 year old 2 ton car, but I have a great time competing and hope to get out to Mallala and compete in regularity as well one day. The 2019 season was my best so far as I wone my class in the Win-ter Cup Series and had I my car on stage at the Sporting Car Club stage at the presentation night. I do get asked what speed do I get u to on the hill climb and with the use of an app on my phone I have hit 98km/h which does not sound like much but there is no real straight to really wind the car out and I can only manage to get into 3rd gear. I also get asked if there is any more speed left in the old girl to drop the times down further, my reply is plenty but the driver needs to grow some bigger kahunas and push the car to the limits but is hard to do in such a valuable car and when you still need to drive the car home after the race meeting and I have a great time without risking too much damage.

The first automobile air conditioner The four Goldberg brothers, Lowell, Norman, Hiram, and Max, invented and developed the first automobile air-conditioner. On July 17, 1946, the temperature in Detroit was 97 degrees. The four brothers walked into old man Henry Ford's office and sweet-talked his secretary into telling him that four gentlemen were there with the most exciting innovation in the auto industry since the electric starter. Henry was curious and invited them into his office.

They refused and instead asked that he come out to the parking lot to their car. They persuaded him to get into the car, which was about 130 degrees, turned on the air conditioner, and cooled the car off immediately. The old man got very excited and invited them back to the office, where he offered them $3 million for the patent. The brothers refused, saying they would settle for $2 million, but they wanted the recognition by having a label, 'The Goldberg Air-Conditioner, ‘on the dashboard of each car in which it was installed.

Now old man Ford was more than just a little anti-Jewish, and there was no way he was going to put the Goldberg's name on two million Fords. They haggled back and forth for about two hours and finally agreed on $4 million and that just their first names would be shown. And so, to this day, all Ford air conditioners show Lo, Norm, Hi, and Max -- on the con-trols. Control yourself! This is what happens when you are confined by the Corona Virus and have too much time on your hands!

TOWING

I have had an enquiry from a Gawler Car Club member who asked me a Question regarding an RV, towing a historic vehicle with a A-Frame. I contacted the Federation of Historic Motoring Club on this matter. I have received a copy of the latest Minutes of General meeting as always (Fl00 Club) and they have put this request in the General meeting minutes, with an answer.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:

Towing: An unusual query was raised concerning conditional registration requirements for vehicles being towed. In this case, a conditionally registered vehicle would be towed behind a RV. The question arose – does the Log Book need to be filled in? DPTI has advised that when the vehicle is on the road and travelling a Log Book journey entry is required. This would probably be akin to a trailer behind a vehicle.

UPDATE ON CLUBROOMS/WORKSHOP

The Town of Gawler Council has endorsed in principal the application from our club to establish a clubhouse/workshop on community land located at Little Paxton St, Willaston. Negotiations are ongoing to seek a long-term lease and information relating to the project will be advised to members when available. Approval of the outcome of these negotiations will be required by Club members to finalize.

MY FIRST CAR

My first car was a 1926 Hupmobile, which the Americans called a run-about. It was given to me – together with a lecture on driving safely from my uncle – when I was 16 years old. That was 62 years ago and, although I thought I could drive, I had no mechanical knowledge. But that was my car and she motored along nicely, so I was happy! However some months later after being parked between a row of orange trees – and we were in winter – trouble began! To start it you had to crank it. This was a massive effort for me however some of my mates discovered that, if when I was cranking the motor over, they moved the levers on the steering wheel upwards, there was a better chance of it starting even if it resulted in a flow of abuse from myself! The levers of course were a throttle and advance and retard which altered the timing, this in turn created a kick back through the crank handle with a backfire, much to the joy of the crew! However it could also, if you were unlucky, result in a broken arm! Another mysterious device was a vacuum tank, the cause of many a no-go! It makes sense now, if the tank has a leak, it doesn’t suck petrol up from the rear tank and you hang on too long going up a big hill in top gear and the revs are too low, it doesn’t suck either. I don’t recall how long I kept it but my mates and I sure had fun in it especially after rain on the dirt roads in the new subdivision in Windsor Gardens, slipping and sliding and developing new skills. Today we call that hooning! The last I know of the car – I gave it to an adult cousin who was an ex-RAA roadside mechanic. After leaving the RAA he purchased a garage in Caltowie, near Jamestown. He used it as a tow truck. Interestingly I will now quote from a clipping I found in some papers from a person in NSW who wrote to a newspaper enquiring about the name Hupmobile.

‘Q: I find it hard to credit this name, but is there, or has there ever existed a car called a Hupmobile? It sounds like a comic strip character. Well, believe it or not, the Hupmobile was very much evident in Australia before and immediately after WW1. The originator of the popular buckboard-style, two seater American run-about was Robert Hupp, an ex-Ford employee. It had a 2.8 litre engine, a double set of rear wheel brakes and top speed of 67mph. The early Hupmobile carried a plaque on the dash that stated: “Guaranteed for life”. However the company fell victim to that great liquidator – The Depression.’
