The flywheel located just behind the crank shaft pulley at the front of the engine has come loose and is rattling around. What do I need to do to fix it? Any help would be much appreciated.
   Many thanks. Gordon

I'm interested in purchasing a Buckland Drophead coupe. Please let me know if you are aware of any on the market. My Grandfather was intimately involved in building these cars and I'm very interested in purchasing one!

Brilliant news for post war AC's. The last Buckland built at Bruningthorpe (PAR 419) will be competing in the Fordwater Trophy on the Saturday morning. Steve Gray who acquired the car recently has pulled out all the stops and got it into a race worthy condition. The last time it appeared at Goodwood was in 1955!!
   There will be two more operated by the Rix's at Glam Cabs and of course NKR 179 and 3 more in the GRRC enclosures that is nearly 20 per cent of the known survivors!!Beat that Aces and Cobras!!

I have had a request from the Buntingford Classic for any AC's especially Bucklands and Aces's to attend on the 4th of Sept, apparently we will be received with open arms and the more AC's the better.
   If any body could oblige could they either get in touch with me or the organiser at www.buntingfordclassic.com, if there are enough of us there it should be a good day!!
