Morning!what you got planned for the weekend?

[GavinJ]

I've got a few jobs on the MGB to do, trim the carpet so it fits round the roll bar, loosen off the d/s rear brake as its sticking after standing a while and try unblock the drain pipe from the fresh air vent.

What you got planned?

[richy]

Was going to go o the Pomeroy Trophy at Silverstone but it's too cold - anyway, work on the HA van is about to start!

[nickb]

Off to sunny southend on sea in a bit to pick up the poopy polo I bought for £21 on flea-bay last week.

[banzai!!]crazy engrish foo' reckon he drive home 84 mile in £21 car - will he make it - prace bets NOW!!![/banzai!!]

;D

[Kris]

I need to:

refit the N/S hub and torque up all the ball joint nuts

tighten both driveshaft nuts and fit new split pins

try and repair the broken wiper stalk, I dropped the cage on it!

and refit the grille and connect up the spotlights.

[racer86]

ill will be mostly fitting a rev limiter, doing my gearbox and diff oil and giving the poor thing a wash after the salty thrashing in the snow shes has over the last couple of days.

[t5]

I've got to give the 1303 a pre-mot inspection, well see if the lights work anyway.
Then make the vespa roadworthy, needs a seat and horncover making/fitting and fix the indicators.
If I get time I'll give the datsun a going over and see if its worth keeping as it hasn't sold. Maybe I'll start removing the engine if I get time (some hope!)

[Curt]

Today I'm going to clean the 205s engine bay, update www.rallystuff.tk, hopefully get chance to get the Sunbeam out of the garage, and also, my dad is selling his Talbot Sunbeam Lotus S2.

Tomorrow I will be going to Stoneleigh Historic Motor Show at the NAC.

[Ratters]

I've got the wifes job today as it's her Saturday in work ;D
That involves stinky nappies, messy feed times, stopping her from getting at the PC, & general winging & crying - more teeth on their way ;D

Also have a sparky round to quote for some work, & the good old Saturday visitors

Have a alloy switch panel to fit in the Mk1 & want to take the clocks apart to spray the surround a satin black instead of the nasty wood veneer effect & also the trim across the dash aswell.....

Time, time, time.....

[GVK]

This afternoon, drag myself away from PC and gather all the junk I take along to a track day.

Tomorrow - Track day at Donington's national circuit ;D

[hairnet]

nick take a hall sender with you

the only that breaks on a polo that will strand you

i mostly have been buying cars ;D

will be servicing the audi and fartting around with the bike

ps anyone wanna buy an audi??? mucho cheap

[stuyizz]

I've been lowering the 7 series this morning (only 35mm but it looks a load better now)and giving it a service, what a complete piece of curse word that was...I was expecting it to be a bit of an but everything was straight forward and it all went together no probs I even had time for a pub lunch after,quality

[Ratters]

Just picked the missus up from work so my duties are now a lot easier ;D
Plus the clock surround & the dash trim are on the draining board drying off ready for a rub down, re-clean & a bit of rattle can action ;D Then back together tomorrow for work on Monday.....

I have before pictures that I took today cuz I know how much we all like pictures

[GavinJ]

Out of all my above plans, i've only managed to give the MG a good clean up inside as it was a tip after fitting the rear roll cage and managed to trim the carpet without messing it up!

To cold/wet to do the other bits so there tomorrows tasks now...

[Panda Matt]

I spent 2 1/2 hours in the freezing cold sanding a slab of carbon fibre, and it still isn't smooth (harumph).
Not strictly related to my cars, but thought someone might be vaguely interested...

[BenzBoy]

Well, I'm off to ScrapinScraps gaff tomorrow for some much needed Merc engine parts! So an early start for me...
Then Monday I'll probably be fitting them!

[ImpJimbo]

I was hoping to do a bit of work on the Nymph but ended up moving a mate and tomorrow I'm off to look at jet planes at Bruntingthorpe!

I was intending to go to that too, but thought better of it. Are you VSCC, as IIRC it's members & their guests only.

[Nathan]

Ah my god Gavin i did the same job with the Drain hole on sunday morning with a Wackin hangover, I used a nice rod of steet and a few smacks and hey all the curse word came out, My heater is still pants though only trickles warm air out the vents

[GavinJ]

did you work from underneath the car or from above? not got round to doing it yet, was going to attempt removing the fresh air vent but i've heard there a pic to get off! but i can't rod it from above because of a wire mesh.
