Cortina Upright Drawing

Darren,

I would be grateful if you would email a copy of the cortina upright drawing to assist with my own suspension design. I use CAD and can accept most cad drawing types, .dwg .dwf .dxf etc.

Thanks.

John.

Can everyone hassle me off list to darren@gtstuning.co.uk as i'm forgetful and busy. I may have added the drawing to the yahoo lists file section if that helps.

Kind regards,

Darren

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
