Cars and spares offered by members
Here is the latest list of surplus items from the Bristol Owners’ Heritage Trust archive with some rare discoveries being offered for sale.
If you are interested in any of these items please contact Michael Crawford, mjcm4p@gmail.com
As the Trust’s volunteers sort, collate and catalogue the records that are now in storage at the BOHT workroom (office?) in the conservation hanger at Aerospace Bristol and two storage units a short distance away on the other side of the A38, a fair quantity of surplus documents are being found most of which are unused but show signs of having been stored for many, many years.
In order to generate income to support the Trust in its stated aims surplus items from the archive are being offered for sale. Disposal of these surplus items will not deprive the archive of any examples of documents, drawings, specifications, brochures or ephemera. After all, does the Trust need to find space for dozens of, say, road test reprints or model brochures when these could be of interest to those who own or have an interest in Bristols?
Items that are available include sales brochures for Types 404, 405, 407 (in French) 408, 409, 410, 411 S1 & 2, 411 S3, 603, 603 S2 and the Blenheim, reprints of contemporary road test reports, a Bristol Cars 407 specification, various flyers, advertising material, production jobs cards, unused commercial documents and other ephemera.
If you are interested in obtaining surplus items from the archive, please send an e-mail to mjcm4p@gmail.com

As the Trust works its way through the records of Bristol Cars Limited, rarer and more interesting car- and company-related items can be made available and revised price lists provided.

A big hello to everyone in BODA. I follow in exalted footsteps, my predecessor John Watt, a lifelong motor sports fanatic, had previously held the role of Regalia Officer for the British Motorsports Marshals Club. John gamely took on the role in our Club 3 years ago in his late eighties, but sadly passed away at the end of last year. I visited his wife Audrey recently and am now in possession of the Club’s stock of stickers, embroidered badges, key rings and binders. We send our condolences to Audrey and the family with thanks for his hard work on our behalf.
We can now accept orders for excellent quality, one-size Caps priced at £12, and highly desirable short sleeved Polo shirts in both Ladies and Gentlemen’s fittings, priced at £20. We also have some some stunning Soft Shell Gilets at £40, Sweatshirts at £17.50,T shirts at £12, all available in a variety of colours and sizes, as well as umbrellas at £20, (all plus postage). Stickers, badges key rings and binders from the old range of stock are also available.

If you have any suggestions for other items that would make your and BODA’s life complete, please let me know and I will do my best!
