Yes, I think I do. I reckon it'd be really nice to get a 1300 up on the stand.

So we need one more car I reckon...any takers?

I bought a rebuilt Sprint bodyshell a while ago, its currently sitting on scrap 1850 subframe and axle. We could try getting that running with the correct donkey and axle in place...

That doesn't sound too hard :P , and is a proper "Restoration" project.

This would only be a go-er if you had the engine and box rebuilt and ready to go in, with all the other bits you need. While it's not really "restoration", I love the idea of starting up an unsilenced V8 inside that hall. 8)

I'll leave it a day or so, and then I'll add a vote to this post, to see which one people prefer.

Right then.

Executive decision to make, and I reckon it should be this. To avoid being in the hall at 7pm like we did last time, I think it might be an idea to make sure any vehicle we bring is trailered in and out, just to make sure we have time.

How does this sit with everyone?
