Postwar
8 Tourer by T.J. Richards

Howard's Sulzer Fire Pump
June
and I met up with you at the 2005 Standard East Anglian Run,
we were guests of Ian & Vera Leggett, that was certainly
the best organized and friendly club run we
have ever been on, and same goes for the Stratford-upon-
Avon Rally which we also attended, the organization was
a credit to your members,
We
are planning to come over again in 2010 and we hope to be
able to catch up with you all again.
Anyway
I have enclosed a photo of our baby for your archives.

& June Kent,
Old
Smithfield, South Australia.
Thanks Dave and June,
My apologies for the delay in
including this feature.
Its good to see another restored
T.J. Richards body and yours looks very pretty. In England the 8
was not called a Flyer after the war and I suspect that the same
applies in Australia? Please let me know?
It would be good if you could
coincide your visit with the International Rally at Wyboston
Lakes, near St. Neots at the end of June. We look forward to
seeing you then.
Kind regards,
Phil
