SparkyB Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Mark, if you want to drop round and see the car give me a buzz... got nothing planned at the moment.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markcoopers Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Now that wasn't a bad show all be said and done, a little cold outside, but with warm company. Thanks chaps for a fine day out, even Amanda says so as well. Chris, we found something for you to save up for, and Hugh has an excellent photo for you, "Mr Opel". No one really spent much, other than on lunch , not for want of trying I might add, but plenty of upgradeitus items and ideas. Oh nearly forgot, also this weekend I got the sodding pulley bolt out and Chaz set a personal best of changing cams within the hour. Good luck, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparkyB Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 So how did you get that bolt out then, did you attach the gearbox or was there an easier way?? Give me a shout when you want the electrics sorted..

markcoopers Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 So how did you get that bolt out then, did you attach the gearbox or was there an easier way?? £21.98 worth of clark 12V impact driver from Machie Mart. Thought it was broken to start with, as the socket was not spinning when I pulled the trigger, then I read the manule . Bolt just flew out once I let the driver do its stuff. This week I'll mostly be doing lifting and fitting, but electrics can not be far away now. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markcoopers Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Evening Chris, we saw that and thought "Chris and his VX adventure". How is the rebuild comming on, get anything done over the weekend? Chaz is really slow with mine, maybe I should pay him or something?

ChrisF Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Evenin Mark...it didn't go this weekend. I put a few stud bolts in the head and spent the weekend with the family. It's going to be a few weeks before I have free time to get the engine in I'm afraid that it's my busy period at work...so it's not really looking good this side of Easter One day I will have a car with all the bits in place and I can hear my engine purrrrr In the meantime I will keep dreaming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
