This years Deva dub and rods show is nearly upon us. Shrewsbury Showground 6. 7. 8 June. We had a great turnout last year and it would be great to equal if not better this. With this being our local show, they would appreciate our support We have a prelimery booking for 15 pitches in club camping at the moment but this can easily be increased to accommodate additional members.
Those of you that are coming need to pre book your tickets for club camping, tickets vary in price as below
FULL WEEKEND TICKETS Fri Sat Sun
Adult £17.50
Child 10/16 £7.50
TWO DAY TICKETS Sat Sun
Adult £12.50
Child 10/16 £ 5.00
NB these are advanced booking prices
If you can let Gaz know your requirements he will make the appropriate arrangements. He will need your cash a.s.a.p so he can be sure of enough space in club camping. Those that don’t pre book cannot be guaranteed a pitch with the club, although we will do our utmost to fit you in.
In return for a club camping area, the organisers have requested a themed club display of a minimum of 5 vehicles up to a maximum of 10 in the main show arena on the Sunday morning. We have an idea for the theme, which is not going to be published but discussed at the next meeting, Wednesday 7th May, and we have 5 vehicles at the moment confirmed. I know most won’t want to have to sort their vans early so at the moment we have 4 bugs and a karmen ghia for the display

Jez told us the following,
'Unfortunately, I've had the pleasure of Old Salty's company for only
two very short hours; I flew to Washington State earlier this year to
try-and-buy, had a ten minute drive and an hour of poker-faced
haggling, before doing the deal and flying back home.
He's a '56 that started life in Wolfsburg in '55, before being carted
over to be finished in the newly-opened Hanover factory in '56.
He's just arrived in Sydney's docks where I exported him to, ready to
be turned into a mobile shop by the time I emigrate over to those
fine shores next year.
Here he is at one of only two shows that the previous owner has taken
him to for the entire time of his ownership; that's 400 miles a year
total!
He's straight as can be, and ready for some Porsche, IRS, and
tasteful meddling! Can't wait to cruise to the beach in
him......every weekend'
How jealous are you now? We know we are.
Jez's Ghia 'Lola' is a '68 from Los Angeles.
Bare-metal restoration, Rolls hide, Jag pile, Momo, 914 wheels, 911 5-
fin fan cooling a bespoke 1776 with Dellorto 40's, Mofoco 042 head,
Engle cam and other sundry fun items, put together by the maestro
Sayed of Batts Bugs.
