Archie's Birthday
Hi all -
Although I don't have any definite sources*, I believe today would be the 110th birthday of Archibald Frazer Nash. Except for his work, the Bristol would be a far different car. Surprisingly, he does not have an entry on Wikipedia! Bob * relying on various colonial publications and conversations. |

Make that 120th!

I'll think of him at Shelsley Walsh on Sunday. Its the World's
oldest motoring venue and a hill climb first used in 1907. There will be lots of Frazer Nash's and GNs there. Ash |

Hi Bob
If Archie's not in Wiki, why not create an entry for him? That's how Wiki works! He deserves it. Andy Bernard |

I believe Archie Fraser Nash has a daughter who lives on the North norfolk coast.

I started a bio for Wikipedia, but not sure how to move it to the
live/real section. It's very brief, as I'm just hoping that getting a starter out there will encourage others to fill out the entry. After all, a bio of such an important UK motoring personality should not be coming from "the colonies"! |

Well done Bob, anything is a start and will probably flush one of
these knowledgeable pedants out of the woodwork. These people are a gift from heaven because they preserve the minutae that the rest of us cannot be arsed with. Ash |
