Yeah, currently, any day in Feb is good for me.

My 2 might not be going, cause my chappie is back soon who wants the Ford engine and gearbox, but I\'ll come in the 7 then.

Hey very cool, feb is much better for me than January. I am pretty sure that my partner has a hospital appointment on the 2nd(I think) I will check and get back to you all. Mind you he says foolishly, as the 2nd isnt on the weekend I reckon just about anydate would be groovy!
 Very cool to meet up with you old skool nuts.

OK, just another thought ... does anyone need any bits ? Happy to trade for parts

I have most of a series 3 rx7 12a engine (minus -  one rotor, a front cover, a dizzy, an alternator and a front engine mount + 2 worn looking rotor housings) Some Series 3 Rx7 electrical interior bits and bobs, a set of 4 series 3 rx7 alloys with near new tyres (maybe 500miles at the most)

G\'day O-S\'ers.
I\'ll be up for the 18th :) Not sure which car yet though. Added a \'96 323F to the fleet recently (and rather boringly, but we\'ve got a little\'un on the way so we needed something remotely NCAP friendly) but I\'ll take something old if I can.

323\'s looking pretty good for Sat now :yes

Tracked - Check (using a recently aquired trakrite guage drive over thing ... worked ten times better than I thought it would!)

Rear Suspension swapped - Check

Dash fitted and working - Check

Running - Kinda I fouled the plugs leaving it on the choke while I was washing my hands oops. hopefully a wire brushing has fixed it.

I also found and fixed the exhaust leak ... the manifold nuts were all loose :)

Oil, filter and fanbelt change tommorow + a wash and half hearted polish and it\'ll be ready :wiggle
