LED Tail and Side Lamps - Rotax RetroFit
By Phil Guilfoyle, April 2020
I felt that the rear lighting on my Sunbeam 14/40 was totally inadequate for modern driving. So I decided to add LED lights, front and rear, to increase visibility without over-taxing the charging circuit (a Rotax generator and cut-out).
an amilcar special
By Tony Caldersmith
Having been a VSCCA member and driving some “interesting” cars in the ‘50s (a Riley 9 and an SS1) and then putting that aside while I got married, bought a house and raised children, I eventually decided to get involved in motorsport again, which I did initially by building a couple of Holden engined racing cars and later getting involved in historic racing.
Eventually, after racing a variety of post-war cars and because of my continuing interest in vintage cars, I decided it was time to build a Group J (pre-1930) special and race that.
Ongoing Restoration of 1937 4/4 MORGAN
by Rex Vincent
This very early 4-wheel Morgan (only 3 wheels till 1936) was my first car purchased in 1957. I moved it on for a 4-seater version in 1960. For nostalgic reasons I bought it back from a deceased estate where it had languished in a shed for over 30 years. It was meant to be almost driveable but that was all a myth.
