If cars are still needed, I have one that needs welding... No idea how I'd get it from Basingstoke to Stoneleigh though!

Would it be an idea to put a list up of people who can attend and what they can do?
Might be a bit embarassing if we end up with 5 teaboys! :lol:

Least it'd be quieter on the stand this year then.

I can volunteer my Sprint...

Okay, nothing on it needs fixing, but every time it seems to be promised a place on the TDC stand it will break in some major way :lol:

I'll be there, but have dispatched the last GRP wings and last GRP front panel this very week. Should have replacement stock by then.

Steve Wilkes also willing to help; he might just have rejoined by then!

Folks, I have started two modules from a health & social care masters. This is hugely full on and I doubt that I will be of much use to anyone for the next 3 months. I will be unable to do anything with regards to the Resto Show and I may not even be there as a regular punter which is an arse, as it will be the only one I haven't been to since re-entering the world of small Triumphs a few years back.

At least we have identified a few potential victims, I mean car doners and helpers.

I would appreciate some help with the London Breakfast Run if anyone wants to pm me.

Cheers

Ken

Solid prize winning ideas and volunteers now needed desperately...

Anyone want to take the helm on this one, no pay, no glory....

I could always put PRO into two vans and see how much of it we could finish in a day? :D

Seriously though, That's probably not an option. My other one is far too holey to make it up as well.

I reckon an interior refurbish might be a good idea (would have been even better if Ken was well though!). If anyone has a car with a grotty interior, perhaps we could completely strip it out, and refurbish that? clean the carpets and seats, revarnish the wood, etc, etc.?

Possible; what state is it in now? Can you put a wish list together of tasks that could be worked on separately?

Similar to what we did a few years back, but could you get it there?


Third option is my white car...again. At least there'd be continuity!


Can volunteers who can definitely attend please send me PM or e-mail and I'll start a circulation list going...

What time does it start? It sounds fun, but I'm not sure whether I can sensibly get there from Basingstoke on the Sunday morning...
