Following an advert in the BA7C, I contacted Malcolm
Cox at:
Who tells me they still make Austin 7 pneumatic
cushions—either in absolute original form made from real rubber—very
expensive, or in modern neoprene.

A stunning print from an original poster advertising the Austin 7 chummy. Note the humorous registration plate RU412. The poster demonstrates the benefits to the family of the time of car ownership. I believe that the family walking are dreaming of having an Austin 7 and they are pictured in the car. An A3 print (29.7 x 42 cm) from the original poster of the 1930s, it will be packaged in a strong postal tube. The cost is £9 per print. An A2 print is also available at £15. Contact Noble Arts on info@noble-arts.co.uk or buy via their website: www.noble-arts.co.uk/

Dear Sir I have just introduced to the market place, an innovative design of hydraulic car ramps called: The ReayRamp. I advertise in Car Mechanics and Practical Classics and I display them at many Auto Shows and Auto Jumble shows around the UK. My website is www.reayco.co.uk. Please take a look and if you feel that this product may be of interest to your members then please link my site to yours and if I receive any orders that mention your club I will of course offer a discount. This is a brand new product that I am selling, there is nothing else like this available today. Safety has been my first consideration, as I work under cars a lot. I have the benefit of many years of nose up against sumps and I am sure that many of your members who still continue to use trolley jacks and axle stands will easily appreciate the time savings of the ReayRamp. Kind regards John Reay REAYCO 01745 351157 but please reply only to johnreay@hotmail.com quoting Ramps
