I can donate an engine crane for the day if required,

How about doing the front of my car! :lol:
Though if a certain 1850 comes my way that'd be a perfect back up...

Anyway, I'm free to lend a hand.

For a car to be on the club stand it has to belong to a current fully paid up member.

Ok, is there anyone with a 1300FWD or a Tolly that would provide a good resto subject.

Last year we had two Sprints on the stand and much good work was done. I see no reason why the same can't be done again.

A mix of mechanical and bodywork is good and as I mentioned earlier, it would be a great opportunity to showcase Alun's panels, so a little bit of preference might be given to cars that would benefit from the GRP bits. You would of course have to purchase said GRP bits though.

Not much mechanical savvy here but can help with anything else.

Standy car (SE) if required.

Can also do Jacks / Axle Stands / Extension Cables / Kettle and Urn / Food if Needed..............

Nah! one Sprint and a 1500........albeit with Sprint running gear. :lol:

How's about reshelling my track Sprint? :D
Sprintless for the first time in 35+ years. :boggle2: ... Still Sprintless.

Engines, Gearboxes, Overdrives etc. rebuilt. PM me.

Oh, I thought we had two Sprints, so one real one and a pretend one eh? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Would love to Mart but I think we might run out of time.... slightly :lol:

Would anyone else be able to help spanner twirl?

Cars:
LD: clutch and maybe tie bar bushes
Stewarts SE on standby (thanks Stewart). Not sure as to what would be done on it yet.
1300FWD or Tolly??????

Looks like we have sufficient offers of extension leads, axle stands, tools and engine cranes. Thanks everyone. 4 post lift? :woohoo:

Willing Helpers/Victims:

Me
Oli
Stewart
Paul (if he joins the Club) :wink: :lol:

Has anyone got a clutch aligning tool? What would be required for tie bar bushes? G clamps?

Malc will you be there with some spares? Janette with regalia too?

Hands up who has various banners, etc? Would that be the nefarious Cov Crew then :bluewave:

Come on folkks don't be shy.

Ken,

SE has various little bits that need doing to tidy it up.

Maybe I could order a new carpet set and do the change over. Shouldn't take ages and would make a big difference to the interior.

Wheels need painting which I may also be able to do within the time.

Thoughts welcome....

Hi Stewart, sounds good to me.

Andy, we seem to be making some progress. Any objections if we run with this or did you have something else up your sleeve?

I have one of those Laser Clutch alignment things that I used to do mine... I don't really rate it very much though.
But it lives in my tool box, which will be coming with me.

Oh well, LD is no longer in the running. I am happy to provide the FWD for a valance swap and perhaps fitting proper seat belts maybe?
