The 'E' Type Forum

Hi all, does anyone know or have any information on the spares day at Stoneleigh? On the website it’s just saying date TBC? Thanks, Steve.

In the days before fleabay it was the place to find all those hard to find items. Even more recently it was well worth attending, as companies like SNG Barratt, Hutson’s and even some of the restorers would have stands. Not now though as they all sell mainly via the web.
There’s an element of use it or lose it nowadays and some go to catch up with friends not seen in the year and to occasionally find a gem or two.
You’ll find smaller one man sellers nowadays plus a few of the suppliers of electrical parts, brake pipes and bending tools.

That’s just my view

Geoff

Edited to add: there are a few from this forum who sell from their extensive collection of spares they’ve put together over the years.

Date/venue not confirmed yet....I'm in the camp of use or loose.....always something to find there...always a good day to meet others.....and face to face discussions / knowledge from some of the best in the game....just treat it as a day out.....Steve

Thanks for the replies chaps.

Yes, for me, as with you guys by the sound of it, its a day out first where you get to put a face to a name and a chance of finding some 'treasure' as well!

I will keep my eye on the site..

Thanks, Steve.

Yes, please post when you find out the date for the spares day

Yes of course. I have messaged and called the number on their site and emailed the address as well and heard nothing back as yet. I'll post as soon as I hear.

Best regards, Steve.

Hi chaps, Just stuck a post in general, the spares day for October this year has been cancelled. I managed to get hold of someone in the JDC who confirmed it.

Best regards, Steve.
