May I suggest that Ade gives it a look over, and Mark will you take it up in Committee? (Sorry Guys!)
Perhaps it would also be good if we could show them how many members are behind this initiative?
Stu, what about a poll perhaps?

I would be prepared to help with the funding if it was only a few hundred quid. I hope it can be saved by the club. Perhaps we should offer shares in it.

I would be happy to chip in a couple of hundred quid as a donation.
I woudl very much like to see it saved. How the repair/conversion can be managed is more complex. But if there is somewhere to put it then if that proves too tricky we can always try to pass it on.

Good idea John. What do all the others think? |

If you promise not to tell (!!!) I'd be up for a donation/share in the same sort of way people split a Routemaster bus or train.

the appia van is done in "shares", each person is responsible for running costs etc on a % basis of how many shares they own ie if someone owns 10% then they pay 10% of the bill, simple and works

I took the liberty of sending the seller an email, to which he has replied. We appear to have a deal if we want to go for it. I suggest the following, inspired by the Appia Van arrangements:
We go with shares at £50 each (ie 40 available in total)
These shareholders are then responsible for their percentage of costs (will be the more expensive part, whatever we do with it!)
People indicate asap how many shares they'd be willing to take up
I go to the committee on Sept 5th with a proposal to underwrite/take up the balance
To my mind, the key issue is storage, on an ongoing basis. sweeet-twincam, does your offer still stand? how long would it be available? is the storage open air?
I am happy to co-ordinate and deal with the financial side (if everyone's happy with that), but would prefer someone else to deal with the logistics of collection and transportation if this comes off! If this is acceptable to people, I will start the ball rolling by committing to 4 shares, ie £200 and 10%

Put me down for a share. We do have links with another transport company that have low loaders, so I can easily get a price for moving it. It could be registered as a Historic vehicle, so is tax free, but it would still need plating (MOT test) each year and you would need a class 'C' (HGV rigid) licence to drive it. Ade.

ok put me down for two shares please.
I am guessing that the cost of fixing etc will cost a multiple of that and use up my £200 mental target and more quite easily.
If we face an initial shortfall of funding to buy it I am happy to contribute more. I am just being a bit cautious because the initial share price is just the start!
Would absolutely love to see it run, though!

I could do a 50 donation but can't open the door to spiralling costs.

Hi, i`m as keen as the rest to save this lovely machine ,might even think about getting a licence...!!! as its my own land then there is no time limit....yes it is open air i`m afraid but it shouldn`t stop the owner(s) putting something up if they feel it prudent....some telegraph poles and simple sheet corrogating should suffice, |
