Gotta decide what cars we're going to fix, and who we've got coming, before we get started with the kit I reckon.

Ok, just realised I can't actually PM everyone at the same time; is there any chance the people who want to help out for the restoration show could PM me?

Thanks.

Hoping to learn a bit as well as help a bit if I can

Dave you should have a PM from me!!

Ok, based on the replies so far, I think it would be a bit diecy to try and do any more than 2 cars on the day with the number of people we're likely to get.

As regards what to do, I quite like the idea of sorting Andy's overdrive box, and reinstalling the engine of the new member's 1500. What does everyone think?

Sounds like a larf, I'm up for that

Is the new contact reliable enough to turn up with his car? Worth having a contingency plan just in case?

See I'd love to come and help, but I really don't know enought to be of any use.. I don't drink tea/coffee either so I couldn't even make that.. well I could, but it would probably taste horrible.. bot that coffee doesn't already.. and tea is just hot water..

*Cough*

If people think a complete novice could help out, I could come ?

All I know how to do is take cars apart. It's the putting them back together I'm a bit fuzzy on.

If you know nothing at all it's probably an even better day out. As long as you don't mind getting dirty you'll learn a lot about working on cars, especially if we get to do something like the engine re-install.

That is exactly what the day is supposed to instill and encourage
