Too far! its only 3 miles
Did you all finally decide on a date? Any of you going to Detling? Weather is looking very good.....
Jasper the meet date is sunday 14th at 10 am as for detling i wont know till saturday,post or mail your mobile no and i will mail you if me or Bob n me are going
mobile is 07810 635669, maybe see u Sunday
Yo Jasper the local nunnery has invited me round for a party on the sat so from previous experience i wont be in any fit state for a few weeks
Well, not bad, we managed five of us to this meet: myself, TheConrodKid, Bob, Merlin and Dazza. Glad to see most of us have already got back on line
already!
My thanks and (as 'De Yoof' of today would say) 'Big Up' to The Conrod Kid for the fantastic blast in The Conrod Cruiser- well done on building such a
great machine!
I've had a big on my face ever since!
If anyone is ever flagging a bit in their build get someone to give you a ride*** and you suddenly realise why you're doing it all!
Anyway, gonna go get on with it now- actually start chassis tomorrow (at last) and need to make a cutting list!
James
*** And Conrod: we all know it's only you who has a smutty inuendo grin on at the moment.
And the food was good so lets have a bigger turnout next time!
I will have a bigger turnout if i keep eating breckies like that
Soz I didn't make it this time guys - was away at Donny show (as I'm sure you all knew).
Whens the next one?
Chris
Next one about a months time,lets negotiate on the date this time Chris we all had to buy our own brekkies!
will it be 10 or 10.30 then?? can't eat another 2 breakfasts and 20 cups of tea!!
Sorry did say 10 didnt i remember food is good,without it you die!
How about May 12th,thats the weekend after stoneleigh?
12th sounds good. i am up for it!!!! oooeeerrr....
Ok may 12th10-30 ish bee there or forever drive a nissan micra
Didn't make Detling (sick wife) or last brekkie (had to go look at sofa's - that was exciting..) Definitely coming to Stoneleigh and will try to make
the brekkie on the 12th.
Have talked my local tech into running a 'Build your Own....' nightschool from the Autumn term so have decided to wait till then b4 starting, save
some cash, and plan. Seems stupid to start before then even tho I'm itching to as they have the lot - motor workshop, metal fabrication, motorcycle
workshop run by Brighton largest dealer, and two tutors who race stock cars and track cars. Just have to spend the summer dreaming and checking out
other cars.....

Good idea - just can't decide on Sierra IRS, or live Axel Cortina or Escort.....I'm leaning toward Cortina for ease of build, and I'll have a while to source one to...
Yo Jasper,Cortina/Escorts are rarer than tax re bates so go seirra,the MK one is good unless you want to do it all from scratch.
PS let us know when the kit car run to Brighton is on,went last year it was great!
I agree, escort/cortina's are as rare as rocking horse doodaa, so stick with the sierra one. Lots to be had as donors and easier to get recon/new parts to!!!! try getting new bits from ford/halfords/etc for a cortina!!!!!!
My only worry going Sierra is a lack of plans for the chassis build - tho' with the help I'll get at nightschool this hopefully won't be too much of a problem....I'll just take a tape measure and camera to Stoneleigh.
