Thank You Angus

Post by AndyC »

I wanted to make sure that we thank Angus for organising the production and distribution of the window frames. Whilst these may not be items that keep the wheels from falling off, they are a necessity for reasonable use of the cars (given the climate) and the lack of availability threatened to render lots of cars unusable or detract from other condition of our cars.

Thank you Angus.

Good idea, I for one really appreciate what he does, real dedication from people like you Angus is hard to come by.

I'm sure he's already had his cup of tea and digestive.

However, I'm confident you have all filled in the necessary paperworks if you wish to honour ANY members/contributors/Team.

A new set of window frames will be gracing my Elite when the doors get rebuilt. I'm very pleased that these were able to be remanufactured.
Thanks Angus. :)

As well as thanking Angus, we should also thank Mike Kimberley who set this off by providing the details of the company which originally made the frames, and which is making the frames today.

Cheers, Richard

And I have always given him due credit for putting me in touch with the man who knew which company it was.

Thanks for the kind words.

I'm sorry to have to step down immediately, but recent events have convinced me that there's just going to be more conflict if I stick around.
