Tom E Cropp Posted September 4, 2014 Report Posted September 4, 2014 For the last 5 years I've been working as a mechanic for carlin running single seater race cars but like a lot of people I enjoy these old fords for some unknown reason! Anyway I've accepted a job in Australia restoring & building classic fords. I've been a member of the forum a little while now but 2014 has been my first year using my anglia, attending shows and competing in the osfdc! And what a year it's been! I've met so many new faces and made lots of new friends! so although I'm moving to the other side of the world and won't be able to see you all at the shows I'll still be an active member of this great forum!! I was hoping to attend the last round of osfdc but unfortunately I'll already be in Australia! So I shall see you all soon!! 3

Admin Vista Posted September 4, 2014 Admin Report Posted September 4, 2014 Sorry to see you go but I assume you'll still be on here? Perhaps you can get an OSF group going in Oz? Are you taking the Anglia with you?
