Uit die Voorsitterstoel

Die strewe na ‘n eie klubhuis is nog steeds vir die komitee ‘n prioriteit. Gerhard Hoepfner is druk besig om met verskeie instansies te onderhandel om ondersoek in te stel na ‘n geskikte perseel vir die oprigting van ’n klubhuis. Die Liquorland Erfenistoer wat vanaf 24 tot 28 September 2016 gaan plaasvind se reëlings verloop volgens plan. Dankie aan Phillip Rosser en Philip Kuschke vir hul moeite en tyd wat hulle aan die roetekartering bestee het. Die “Country dans” ter stuiwing van die Liquorland Erfenistoerfonds was ‘n groot sukses. Dit was ’n genotvolle aand waar klublede saam met vriende van ons klub heerlik kon kuier en ontspan in ‘n landelike omgewing. ‘n Opregte woord van dank aan ons borge en almal wat die dans ondersteun het. ‘n Heerlike ete en goeie musiek het gesorg dat daar tot laat-aand gekuier en gesels is. Baie dankie aan Amanda Stander, Anita Wright, Alet Lingenfelder en Tilly Olivier wat al die reëlings vir die dans getref het en gesorg het dat alles seepglad verloop het. Tydens die garage-aand by Waldo Scribante op 7 April 2016, het hy sy vertoonlokale oopgestel vir ons groep om te besigtig. Die versameling bestaan uit sowat vyftig goed-versorgde Mercedes Benz motors - om nie eers te praat van die versameling modelmotors nie! Die netheid van sy vertoonlokale was ook opvallend. Waldo, baie dankie vir jou gasvryheid, ons het heerlik gekuier! Die aand is afgesluit met ‘n worsbraai. Die eerste skouvergadering vir die een en twintigste George Oumotorskou in 2017 is agter die rug. Alhoewel dit nog lank is voor 11 en 12 Februarie 2017, moet ons nou reeds begin om ‘n reëlingskomitee op die been te bring. Om die standaard te handhaaf en op vorige suksesse te kan voortbou, het ons alle hulp van ons klublede nodig. Soos die spreekwoord sê: “Vele hande maak ligte werk” - daarom het ons al die hande nodig om die enorme werkslading van die skou ligter te maak. Kontak gerus enige van die komiteelede wat voor in hierdie uitgawe gepubliseer is om jou hulp aan te bied – dit sal waardeer word.

Ons betreur die afsterwe van Paul Fick op 11 April 2016. Hy was een van ons ere-lede, en ons bid sy familie sterkte toe vir die pad vorentoe. Groetnis.

A word from the Editor

Phillip Rosser

Well, after numerous calls to members to inform us if they want to receive the SPANNER by snail mail, only a few requests were received. So if you do not receive the magazine in the mail, it is due to the fact that you did not request it. The SPANNER is available for download on the club’s website at www.scocc.co.za and it will also be e-mailed to the e-mail address that we have on our data basis. For this reason it is imperative that you keep us informed of any change of address or cell phone numbers. I need to apologise for not including the article by Derek Stuart-Findlay on the 2016 George Old Car Show – Driven by Oakhurst Insurance, as well as the preceding tours in the last SPANNER. I still don’t know how I managed to omit the article, but this time it’s in. Derek is a historian and writer of several books on the motoring history in South Africa. He was a participant on the Vettour the day before the show, organised by Philip Kuschke. Een van ons klub se stigterslede, Paul Fick is op 11 April 2016 oorlede. Paul was byna 86 jaar oud en dit was ook op sy plaas, Blackwood, naby Victoria Baai waar ons klub se eerste

6

oumotorskou in 1997 gehou was. Ons dra ons simpatie aan die familie oor en bid hulle sterkte toe. Pierre Olivier en sy span is druk besig met die beplanning vir die 2016 Liquorland Erfenis Toer. Inskrywings sal oop wees sodra die roete en verblyf reëlings afgehandel is. Bydraes vir plasing in die SPANNER het byna opgedroog. Stuur gerus vir my inligting of terugvoering oor uitstappies. Dit is altyd lekker om iemand anders se siening oor uitstappies te lees. Keep the wheels turning

JONG ENTOESIASTE ONTBYTRIT

Op die vakansiedag, 21 Maart 2016, het 'n paar van ons jong lede 'n ontbytrit gehad vanaf George en Mosselbaai na die Ruiterbosch Lodge aan die voet van die Robinsonpas.

Daar was 'n paar jong lede en aspirant jong lede teenwoordig, asook goeie ondersteuning van ons ouer "jonk van gees" lede. Is 'n jong entoesias by ‘n oumotorklub dan nie enige persoon wat jonger is as die motor waarmee hy ry nie?

Ek wil spesiale melding maak van die agtienjarige Casper Schmidt wat aan sy eerste rit deelgeneem het nadat hy sy bestuurslisensie gekry het. Dit is fantasties om die jong man se passie te sien vir die ou enjins, motorfietse en karre, waarvan die meeste seker meer as drie maal sy ouderdom is. Casper, ons hoop dat jy nog 'n paar jong manne kan inspireer om aan te sluit by ons klub. Bring hulle saam, dit is aansteeklik!

10

Dit was 'n koel, reënerige oggend onder die Outeniquas, waar

ons lekker ontbyt geëet en saam gekuier het by die Ruiterbosch Lodge. Dit is 'n gesellige plek wat ideaal geleë is vir hierdie tipe uitstappies.

As gevolg van die reën was die ou motors skaars, maar 'n 1973 Firenza, 1983 Porsche 911, 1972 Mercedes Benz 280, 1961 Ford Anglia en 'n 1958 Morris Minor het hulle staal gewys.

Ek sal volgende keer onthou om foto’s te neem …!

FONDSINSAMELINGSDANS Gedurende April 2016 is ‘n fondsinsamelingsdans vir die 2016 Liquorland Erfenistoer in die John Steyn Boerevereniging-saal te Sinksabrug aangebied. Graag bedank ons die volgende borge: Jannie Stander, Gerhard Barnard, Daan Botha, Louwrens Wright en Johan Lingenfelder vir hul ruimhartige skenkings. In ‘n uiters swak ekonomiese klimaat waarin ons ons tans bevind, waardeer ons jul borgskap opreg. Vir die Liquorland Erfenistoer danskomitee en by name Amanda Stander, Anita Wright, Alet Lingenfelder en Tilly Olivier wat die dans gereël het, wil ons ook dankie sê vir al jul insette en harde werk om alles so pragtig en smaakvol voor te sit tot almal se genot. Baie dankie ook aan alle klublede en vriende van die klub wat die dans bygewoon het, want sonder julle sou ons nie ‘n byeenkoms kon gehad het nie. Met die skenkings van Click-on-it, South Cape Auto, Honda Auto George, Halfway Toyota, Supa Quick Yorkstraat, Exite Computers en Richard en Berta Laubscher, kon ons heelwat geskenke as pryse weggee. Baie dankie ook aan julle - dit word baie waardeer. Ná die ete, met al die formaliteite afgehandel, het almal heerlik gedans op die sestigs se “country” musiek.

NINE DAYS IN FEBRUARY

A carnival of Historic Motoring

By Derek Stuart-Findlay

NINE DAYS IN FEBRUARY – A CARNIVAL OF HISTORIC MOTORING By Derek Stuart-Findlay A fascinating week got off to an explosive start on Saturday 6 February, with hard-fought duals between international competitors at the Killarney Circuit, the second leg of the annual Passion for Speed historic racing series. That evening the Crankhandle Club, at a braai at its clubhouse in Old Wynberg Village, entertained participants in the 6th pre-1919 Veteran Run organised by Harvey Metcalf and Hilton Franz. This annual event is held to commemorate the first reliability run to Kalk Bay by the Automobile Club of South Africa in December 1901. A presentation that evening highlighted the dramatic effectiveness of motorised transport during the rebellion and the invasion of German SWA just over a century ago. Visitors were welcomed from Gauteng, the Free State, KZN and the Eastern Cape, many of them were to continue on during the week to the SAVVA Veteran National at Slanghoek Mountain Resort near Worcester, the Southern Cape Old Motor Club Veteraantoer (Vettoer) starting from Albertinia, and the club’s annual George Old Car Show over the following weekend. The week loomed large, and attained international status when the ebullient Eric Edwards joined us from Canada. Early the following morning activity around the clubhouse reached a crescendo when scores of club members waved off a penny farthing bicycle, three motorcycles and 25 cars. It was a record turnout and featured Roy Watson’s 1904 De Dion Bouton and Ali van Jaarsveld’s 1912 Buick Roadster from Johannesburg, Waldo Scribante’s 1913 Benz from George, and 13 Ford Model Ts, including those driven by visitors Kevin Casey, Alastair McDonald, Paul Mouton, Peter Hall, Johann Claassen, Tom van der Vyver,

13

Arthur Duvenhage, Philip Kuschke and Ockert van der Berg. The Benz and Wolseley were complemented by club members in the De Dietrich, Nordenfelt, EMF, Rover Colonial, Singer, Hupmobile and the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. Brian Wallace and his team participated enthusiastically on their BAT, Douglas and New Hudson motorcycles. Club President Andre du Toit flagged off the participants, led by the intrepid Colin Greyvensteyn on his penny farthing bicycle. He put in an incredible effort, particularly when cycling into a strong south-easterly breeze along the coast between the refreshment break at Kalk Bay Harbour and the lunch destination at Simon’s Town. Many enthusiastic non-veteran-owning club members cheered the participants as they careered past the breakfast stop, Dixies, on the coast at Glencairn. The slower cars continued along the Main Road but the more athletic climbed the Red Hill Road and entered Simon’s Town via Miller’s Point from the south. Tourists expressed amazement at the variety of vehicles lined up in Jubilee Square as the participants enjoyed an excellent lunch in the Seven Seas Club. On the Monday morning 17 cars and two motorcycles participating in the annual SAVVA Veteran National, organised by Harvey and Hilton, headed out to Villiersdorp for the start of the rally across to Slanghoek via Rawsonville. The back-up vehicle drivers were treated to a startling spectacle as they headed up the Franschhoek Pass. We were right behind Greg Bjorkman in his Ford Model T as he scooted around the bend halfway up the pass, suddenly the wooden spokes on his front right wheel collapsed and car careered across the road with splinters flying in all directions. Amazingly, the remains of the spokes protected the wheel hub and not too much damage was done. At the end of the day the backup drivers, highly impressed with the Slanghoek Mountain Resort, left reluctantly to head back to the city. At the Senior’s meeting at the clubhouse on the Wednesday morning we were treated to a fascinating presentation by Peter Hills on the restoration of his extremely rare 1929 Morris Minor, found abandoned in the bush in Zambia. On the Thursday I was back on

Garageaand 6 April

Waldo Scribante was die gasheer vir die garageaand wat op 6 April gehou is. Hy het die sowat 30 SKOMK gaste hartlik verwelkom en onthaal. Dit was insiggewend om na sy netjiese werkswinkel en voertuiglokaal te kyk, en dit was’n voorreg vir die SKOMK-lede om so mooi versameling Mercedes voertuie van Veteraan tot hedendaags te sien. Ons het almal die aand baie geniet en meeste van ons is seker huis toe met ‘n groot waardering vir die bewaring van die verlede.

NINE DAYS IN FEBRUARY - Continued

the rally circuit as the backup driver for one of the Minor’s rivals, Graeme Wares’ 1926 Austin Seven. Stopping off at Slanghoek to pick up backup vehicles, we headed off to Albertinia. The local hotel was the overnight stop for the start of the 11th annual Vettoer, organised by Philip Kuschke and Chris van Staden. The run to George was limited to cars with rear wheel brakes only, including those of the mid to late 1920s. The sight of 29 old vehicles packed into the yard behind the Albertinia Hotel that evening was truly impressive, matched only by the volume of noise in the dining-room that night.

The next morning we headed off to into the beautiful countryside in the hills to the north. Dust from 18 km of gravel road tarnished pristine brass work and a few carburettor settings, but refreshments at the Jakkalsvlei Kelders soon resolved all difficulties. The 185 km route passed Herbertsdale and the Gondwana Game Reserve, through Hartenbos, the lunch stop at Bottelierskop, and Grootbrakrivier. Classic vehicles thronged York Street in George as we entered the grounds of the P.W. Botha College to set up the cars for the 20th Old Car Show. This event clearly has a major impact on the economy of the town, all restaurants were packed, and in addition to ourselves, our B & B was full, occupied by show participants from as far afield as KZN, Limpopo, and the Northern Cape.

Some 980 cars formed the display for the weekend’s show, I had not attended before and my impressions were vivid. Local support for the visitors was superb; Peter Hyslop had a serious problem after two of his wheel rims on his 1928 Falcon Knight were severely split, he was delighted next morning when they were handed back as new, skilfully repaired by Ockert van der Berg. A highlight for me was the display of veteran cars, dominated by Tom van der Vyver’s superb 1904 De Dion Bouton restoration project. Stimulating displays were mounted by a number of individual clubs. Mercedes Benz, Borgward, Porsche, DKW and Volkswagen with its row of antique combis, represented the German marques, Renault, Peugeot and Citroën the French. In an interview, Louise Farrell explained that the name of her Citroën was ‘Charlotte’ – she was an attractive French lady but if she misbehaved the ‘C’ in her name was

dropped! The Americans were widely displayed, and in the auction a magnificent 1948 Packard Clipper convertible was sold for R 190 000. It was a pleasure to see the ex-Tony White 1922 Studebaker, the Galloping Naartie, on the field, the car is now in the hands of a Studebaker enthusiast from Johannesburg. The Brits were represented by displays of MGs, Jaguars, Triumphs, and Morris Minors with an impressive line-up of Rolls-Royces; Mike Watson’s 1915 Silver Ghost looked magnificent. We jumped at the offer of sundowners in the back seat of John and Sue Haresnape’s Silver Wraith, they were downed in infinitely more comfort than in the same space offered by the Austin Seven. We slipped out to visit Mike Rourke and his superb 1924 Talbot-Darracq and Vauxhall sports cars, and that evening I joined Harvey, Hilton and their merry ‘Koshuis Manne’ for a visit to the local dirt-track racing circuit. Our neighbours at the track had a pet sheep named Popeye, who went “baaa” every time his favourite racing driver lost out! I last watched an event of this nature some 50 years ago and had forgotten the skill levels achieved. The noise, dust and braai-smoke took a tremendous toll on ears, eyes and throats, but we all ended up cheering for one of the last men standing, the talented driver of what must be the fastest lime-green Volksie Beetle ever built.

We wearily joined a convoy of old cars as we headed back to Cape Town on the Sunday afternoon. With some difficulty we overtook Len Ward in his 1928 Austin 16 and Peter Hyslop in his Falcon Knight, these senior members, having driven all the way there and back, are an example to us all. Congratulations to Harvey, Hilton, Philip, Chris and their teams for organising a superb nine days of events, they even arranged that we reached home in time to express best wishes to our loved ones for Valentine’s Day!

2016 20th GEORGE OLD CAR SHOW

As usual after each George Old Car Show the club donates a significant amount of money to worthy charities in our area. Due to the success of the 2016 George Old Car Show the club has donated R20 000-00 each to the George Night Shelter, Emmaüs George, Rosemoor Home for the Aged, Huis JJ Watson and R10 000-00 was also donated to the NSRI from the proceeds of the beer tent managed by the Rotary Club.

SAVVA Technical Tip 102

Modern fuel filters

Many of us, very wisely fit modern fuel filters to our early cars and bikes. These filters are inexpensive, extremely efficient and ideal for cars and bikes that stand round a lot building up muck in the tank. Once on a National rally I ended on the side of the road with a blocked filter. Any speed above 30 kph the car shuddered and shook. Fortunately, a passing competitor saw my plight and came to the rescue. Unlike me, they were wise enough to carry a spare which they kindly gave me so I was able to get going. The lesson learned was to carry a spare – they are small and cheap enough. Under normal conditions with vehicles that are used regularly these filters last a long time but they don’t have that much capacity and block fairly easily if you have gunk in the tank. Reading a US vintage car publication they offered the following advice:

“Very often fuel filters are fitted into the line between the pump to the carburettor, which could be very dangerous. The pump is pumping the fuel at around 3 to 6 psi and if the rubber hose perishes – as they seem

19

to do prematurely nowadays, fuel is going to spray all over the engine causing a potential fire hazard”.

Their advice is to fit the filter before the pump where if a rubber fuel line perishes it will only suck air and not cause a major catastrophe. The fuel line from the pump to the carburettor should be solid metal.

“Pieter du Toit, from the Early Ford Car Club has added the following good advice to the Tip on fuel filters. Something you also need to know about modern fuel filter paper is that the paper is gel impregnated, enabling the filter paper to absorb water in the fuel. The problem is when the gel gets saturated with water the filter blocks, even though the filter looks clean.”

A couple is sitting in their living room, sipping wine.

Out of the blue the wife says: “I love you!”

Is that you or the wine talking?” asks the husband.

“It’s me,” says the wife, “talking to the wine.”

2016 en 2017 Liqourland Erfenistoer Liquorland has agreed to be the main supporter for the Liqourland Heritage tours for 2016 and 2017. This support and branding awareness is greatly appreaciated. Let’s all keep supporting them as well.

More Lighter Side

A man and his wife were having problems and giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly the man realized that he would need his wife to wake him at five the next day for a business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence, (and loose) he wrote a note “Please wake me at 05:00". He left it where he knew she would find it. Next morning, he woke to discover it was 09:00 and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why she hadn’t woken him, when he noticed a note from her by the bed. The note said, “It is 5am. Wake up." Men are just not well enough equipped for these kinds of contests
