NZ Brits at the beach
« on: May 29, 2014, 11:26:12 AM »
Brits At The Beach takes place over the first weekend in October down at Whangamata for any kiwis who are interested. Google "Brits at the beach" for the programme of events over the weekend. Over 100 entries already including my CF. Come on folks, gives you 4 months to get your project back on the road.

Hey Bas, your'e not that far off. That window recess plug of yours is nearly there, then its just final prep of the body, a lick of paint, your diff and the new exhaust. You could easily do it in 4 months. Once she is on the road you can slowly finish off the interior. At least you've got no cert issues and your motor and box are sweet. I can picture your van sitting next to mine at the Drive In movie evening that they have got planned. How's that for an inspiring vision  :)

Or very, very scary ;)

Keep at it Baz. Little bits at a time.
As long as it's drivable, it's less of a pain.
Workin for the weekend!

Yea Gordon, I will try, (You can do it !) sounds like Bob the Builder, a kids movie my son used to watch in his younger years. ;)
