Absolutely bloody amazing! Well done folks, what a club! I would to put my name down to help but as with any of the shows my presence is always weather dependant and don't want to volunteer and not show up! I have quite a good digital video camera that never gets used, if the club want's it, it's the clubs. It's a JVC-DVL357E, it's by no means a modern jobbie but it is digital, it records on to tape or SD card and there are 3 batteries. Just let me know.

That would be fantastic and greatly appeciated

Well done everyone, what a great welcome to a new club member, don't get much better than this, I'll be there but I'll leave all the spanner work to those who can, will be watching and there to help if required, might get Andrea in a nurse outfit mopping brows and passing tools, looking forward to seeing it all happen, Ivan

[richardm6994]

do you want me to bring the gazebo?

[Grim]

I've been able to rearrange my weekend so will be there fri night or early sat, so i can help.

 

We may need some specific tools - i can bring the south yorks timing light, my own torque wrench, and pullers for crank pulley.

 

If we're taking the head off we'll need a torx bit and breaker bar.

[richardm6994]

battery drills & chargers arn't a bad idea either

[Shaft]

I've got Torx Bits etc.

[Shaft]

I propose Rob (CMA) as official Photographer.
