Husky
follow-up
Following the appearance of
Dave Gavin’s awesome Hillman Husky on the NASC stand at
the NEC Classic Car Show in 2003, the Hillman Owners Club has
featured – as promised – the car in the pages of
their club magazine, “Coventry Spires”.
It was apparently very well received by a high majority of the
readers, so much so that Ray Sellers of the Husky Register has
invited Dave – with his car if possible – to the
Hillman Owners Club AGM at the Coventry Museum of Transport
on the 3rd and 4th of April 2004. They are to put him up and
arrange a meal for him in a local hostelry to round off the
Saturday evening. Then on Sunday they have arranged a tour of
the current Peugeot production line, and the rest of the factory,
to see how the industry has progressed. Then over lunch they
chat about cars and consider the topics on the agenda for their
AGM that starts at 2pm.
Most, it seems had a real appreciation of the immense amount
of work that has been put in on the car, and Ray has asked to
be kept up to date with the progress of the rest of the build,
with photos if possible so that he can feature the car in their
magazine again. This level of interaction with a classic car
club, where most members are coming from a completely different
direction, is quite amazing and must be encouraged and nurtured.
It can only be good for us all. |
