Auction of Promises

[MKE40]

Thanks for the offer on both counts......erm, maybe the first may get more interest, perhaps.....but maybe thats justme

Kimbers, you just dont want to get your hands dirty !!

It must be an easy life selling cars !!! Just driving about to country pubs and taking clients to lunch.

I suppose its exactly like we have it in the marine trade.................A bit like Howards Way on land .

So you dont wanna do GRP. Can I interest you in two tickets for the Paris Salon Auto show, Its on 30 September until Octobre the 15 ?

You could auction them online NOW to start the ball rolling . They must be of use to SOMEONE on the Forum.

Anyone else with anything?

Ok...

I'll offer up this. It's NOT a complete magazine (i found the pages loose

under a clients carpet!) but it has THE all important feature on page three,

yellowed aged pages but an original piece of lotus and Esprit history all

the same. There are 16 assorted pages of this issue with various articles

on 1970's F1 and other motorsport, and some hethel company announcing

this future car thingy...

Bid for the article on page three, stick it in a frame and be proud,

enjoy reading the rest that comes with it as a nostalgic bonus...

B)

Motoring News October 2nd 1975:

Lotus announce the futuristic mid-

engined Esprit at the Paris Show

Some other interesting features in the other pages too...

Any use Kimbers?

Kimbers, I take it from the list that you no longer need the bits I had offered? No worries as PNM hadn't made the sill plate as yet so I don't need to cahse them.

Sorry mate, missed that one. Bring anything along you think is of interest and we will auction them. The reason we posted up a list is so anyone not coming can contact me/Bibs and put in a fixed bid.
