CLUB RUN TO NERRIGA, SUNDAY 17 JULY 2016 A small contingent left the Spotlight car park just after 1030 for the trip to Nerriga, the purpose being a nice medium-length outing and lunch at the Nerriga Hotel. The travellers were farewelled by several envious members, either being less intrepid or having other pressing commitments that day. The day was fine and mainly sunny, with some fog encountered as we approached and skirted the Eastern side of Lake George. The route was through Tarago, the home of the much frequented Loaded Dog Hotel. It was pleasant being chauffeured in Graham Bigg's recently-acquired 1975 BMW 520, which purred along nicely and handled the variable road surfaces past Tarago very well. Travellers arrived at the hotel about midday and made their orders for what proved to be a most enjoyable lunch. The inside of the dining area of the hotel, which was refurbished about six years ago, is attractively rustic with old photos adorning the walls and two log fires. The placed seemed very popular, with people packing the place out by the time our group got up, eminently satisfied. Quite a few motorcyclists had parked their gleaming steeds outside by this time, and several of us gawked at one in particular, a Boom Mustang tricycle. It had exaggerated raked forks, was longer than a compact car, and was powered by a four cylinder car engine. Nerriga is a very small town on the edge of the Morton National Park, on the road between Braidwood and Nowra. It's position on this road makes it a convenient place to stop for a meal and drink at the hotel. This patronage would have been improved by the recent upgrading of the road and bridgework over the nearby Shoalhaven River. The hotel was originally built in the 1860's, and anything remaining of the earlier structure would have some stories to tell about the early days of the alluvial gold mining explorations nearby. It was originally named the Commercial, then the Cricketers Arms, the Bark Tree and finally the Nerriga Hotel. (I hope I have listed the earlier titles in the correct order). After a ramble along the street to look at the other buildings, the BMW's passengers seated themselves for a pleasant return journey, stopping briefly at the bakery at Bungendore for a cuppa. Vehicles and passengers on the run were:

Chris and Irene Berry - Ford Falcon Graham Bigg and Dulcie Berry, Bob and Dana Garrett - 1975 BMW 520 Janelle and Darron Kavanagh - 1957 Ford Thunderbird Lilly and Keith Carswell - 1975 Oldsmobile Wayne and Sandra Smith. - 1954 Austin Healey 100 Joe and Elizabeth Micallef - 1980 Honda Prelude Dave and Tora Bennett. - Mazda MX5. And I believe a good day was had by all. Bob Garrett. Farewelling in Queanbeyan were Helen Phillips, Brian McKay, Geoff Tyrrell and Charlie Adams. Thanks to Janelle Kavanagh for these pictures. It was the first run for new members Darron and Janelle in theirThunderbird which created a lot of interest.

Boom Mustang Tricycle and the Kavanagh Thunderbird both of which attracted attention. Outside the Nerriga Hotel.

PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE CANBERRA ANTIQUE & CLASSIC MOTOR CLUB INC – New Membership Applica�on Requirements The Present Situa�on Our Cons�tu�on currently requires Applica�ons for Membership to be endorsed by a Proposer and a Seconder and then to go through a process that can take, at best, two complete months before approval is granted. For a new member, wishing to get their car put onto concessional registra�on, this can be a very frustra�ng wai�ng �me. Reasons for Change At present, very few applica�ons are received with the Proposer and Seconder details completed. Even when these sec�ons have been signed, the applicant is rarely genuinely known by either the Proposer or the Seconder. Furthermore, Applica�ons lodged electronically simply cannot be “signed” by a Proposer and Seconder. In this day and age, this is an outmoded requirement that even now we are trea�ng as being redundant. As such, this requirement should be simply removed. The second concern comes about due to a fear that an Applica�on will be received from someone who may be considered by some members to be unworthy of membership. Should this prove to be the case, adequate provisions already exist within the Club’s By-laws (Part 4 – Cessa�on of Membership) to facilitate the removal of a member. Therefore, this requirement is a double-up of a safety mechanism that results in Applicants suffering an undue delay in accessing their membership rights. The Proposed Changes to the Cons�tu�on The following is the extract from our Cons�tu�on showing a mark-up of the current words, which the Commi�ee believes, will provide the wording to accomplish the proposed changes:

17


“5.3 Applica�on for Membership 5.3.1 Persons wishing to become members shall complete such applica�on forms and comply with such condi�ons as are specified in the By-laws in force at that �me. 5.3.2 Every applicant for membership must have a proposer and seconder, both of whom should be members. The acceptance for membership shall be dealt with by the Commi�ee, at least 2 weeks a�er publica�on of their applica�on in “The Colonial” (insert) “as quickly as possible”. 5.3.3 Any member who objects to any applicant becoming a member should appear before the Commi�ee and/or state in wri�ng their reasons for so objec�ng. In the la�er case, the le�er should be in the hands of the Secretary at least three days prior to the mee�ng. 5.3.4 ( Change numbering) Any applicant approved by the Commi�ee may become a member of the Associa�on on payment of a nomina�on fee and the annual subscrip�on or lesser subscrip�on as determined by the commi�ee from �me to �me.” Proposed Constitutional changes will be discussed and voted upon at our Annual General Meeting on 13 September 2016. Any proposal to change the Constitution requires the agreement of at least 20 financial members and a 75% majority vote at a Special or Annual General Meeting.

MY CAR—1926 MORRIS SALOON MALCOLM AND WENDY NOAD

It was the courting of the late club member Jim Bruce’s daughter, Wendy,

that set club member Malcolm Noad, on the path of becoming a Morris

vehicle fan.

Jim Bruce was a serious Bullnose Morris aficionado and, famous for saying

that driving up and down the three Canberra Mountains was always a

challenge, particularly coming down with only two wheel brakes.

The annual Three Mountains Challenge is a memorial to Jim.

The collection of Morris Bullnoses at their Royalla property now number

five - the latest being a 1926 Morris Saloon.

The vehicle was found in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney in fine

condition, requiring very little work on the engine or body.

Its first public outing was at the Terribly British Day in December 2015 and

again at the Morris National Rally in Warrnambool at Easter 2016.

The vehicle is one of only 6 Oxford Sedans built by the Morris Factory with

this example sent to Australia in 1926 to feature at the Adelaide Motor

Show.

The car was purchased from the Motor Show by a gentleman for his

daughter Miss Elsie Deakin Swan.

Miss Swan used the car sparingly and only travelled to Church on Sundays

being driven by her Chauffeur.

Accordingly when we attended the last Morris Register rally in

Warrnambool they decided to dress up in period costume as Miss Elsie

Swan and her Chauffeur.

BEST JOURNALIST IMAGE IMAGE

Club member Graham Gittins has been awarded the Trophy for the best

Journalist image of the year at the Bookham Sheep Sale and Fair, earlier

this year.

The winning image was of fellow club members Malcolm and Wendy Noad

with their 1926 Morris Saloon motor car.

The photograph was taken at the Morris National Rally held at

Warrnambool at Easter.

Graham said while the image was posed by the couple, Malcolm dressed in

a chauffeur’s uniform and Wendy in the style of the 1920s, was too good

an opportunity to miss with Wendy sitting on the running board of their

vehicle with Malcolm behind her.

I think this

Chauffeur is getting

all too familiar.

25


The plans for the rally have firmed up .The rally will start on Monday 1 May 2017. The route to Ayers Rock, (Uluru) and staying at Curtin Springs, will take 8 days. The route out will be via Wagga Wagga, Hay, Mildura, Peterborough, Pimba, Coober Pedy, Marla, Curtin Springs. (2600k) There are 3 routes back the choice is yours: Southern route 1. Reverse of outgoing trip. (8 days, 2600k) Southern route 2. Travel North to Alice Springs for 3 days. Return

via the outgoing route. Optional diversion along the Murray via Albury, or Great Ocean Road (11+ days, 2800k)

Northern route will generally follow a route that includes Alice

Springs Wauchope (Devils Marbles), Tennant Creek , Camooweal, Mt Isa, Boulia, Canberra. This section of the tour will take 18 days. (4200k)

Any CACMC Club Member (or members of any other Motoring Clubs) interested should contact Graham Gittins on 0419 249 109 or email at [email protected] There will be no rally fees and no ‘group’ purchases: (meals, entry fees etc.). Participants will need to book their own accommodation and meet all their own expenses. Suggestions for accommodation for the outward trip and return options 1 and 3 will be provided.

I am de-cluttering and disposing of some “old good gear” e.g vehicle parts. Some are brand new and still in the box they came in. These are from old Holdens, Ford and Morris cars and mainly engine parts. I was wondering if any of your members would be interested in them before the harsh decision is made for them to go to the dump. Geoff Dorward, 5 Bingley Crescent, Fraser ACT 2615
