It was recently highlighted that there was no sensible way for you to remove files and photos you have previously uploaded. This has now been resolved and you can manage your attachments by: Clicking on your username in the top right Selecting My Attachments Then ticking the box on the line of the item you wish to delete, followed by clicking the bin icon that appears at the bottom If anyone has any issues, please send me a PM

Just having a look into a better solution as it looks like you are way over your storage limit - Club members have much higher limits than community users, so I assume you were previously a club member? Will make a new post with details of the solution as this affects all members.

About time we started work on this thing really... -
Go to upper right of screen and click your username, go to "My Attachments". Click the thread link to take you to the specific thread the attachment was you want to delete was originally posted in. Edit the thread post. There is a trash can icon to allow you delete the attachment. Sorry its so convoluted. Any issues drop me a PM.

Thats fair enough, just looked a quick and easy option and probably less than a box will end up costing, although a box comes with lots of spares

Can get a brand new one for £180 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-SIERRA-GRANADA-CAPRI-TYPE-9-GEARBOX-TAIL-CASE-HOUSING-1096055/173926220330?hash=item287ecf822a:g:Qu4AAOSw3G1c-noJ

Looks like it is only up the road

Great night, good food and quality banter.
-
Having spoken to a few people last night and confirmed along with those of you that had replied there is definitely interest, this is one is a go-er. I have booked into the Elan Hotel for Sarah and Me, will start a list at the top of who has and booked and where.

Nothing too exciting in this one, but I do explain some more of the plan and parts we will be using. -
16?! Even I did more than that last year!
-
Brill I will mention it to those at the Mids meal tonight, but I think as long as there is a few of us up for it then it will be go-er.

I've been talking about this for a while and I know a few people had expressed interest so I figured I would throw up a post and see who is up for it. Basic plan is this: Dates: Saturday 23rd May - Monday 25th May (Which is a bank holiday) Where: Elan Valley, Mid-Males The Plan: 23rd May - Meet up for Breakfast at cafe near me (WV16 area), once we and the cars are full, follow a pre-set route to Elan Valley - 80miles 24th May - Run out around mid-wales taking in various stops for lunch, refreshments , fuel etc -150miles Planned stops include Corris Craft Centre and Tregaron Kite Centre. Dinner out somewhere together at the end of the day. 25h May - Possibly do something on the Morning (open to suggestions) then head home - Have a different route planned back in the general direction of mine should people want to do that which is about 65miles. My original plan was to have done a reccy run before now and tested out the routes, but with breaking the kit for spares and starting the new project, I havent had chance, but knowing the area reasonably well, I think it should be a decent route with enough fuel stops for even @Andi to make it round without too much fear of running out of petrol! In terms of accommodation, having had a quick look around Rhayader looks ideal with plenty of options at sensible money. This link will show you some of the options locally https://tinyurl.com/vsovo6u Also a campsite very close by that looks reasonable for those who prefer aluminium or canvas roofs https://www.campsites.co.uk/search/campsites-in-wales/powys/rhayader/wyeside-camping-and-caravanning-club-site So, if you are interested, drop your name below. I'm not sure what I will be driving yet, but if it comes to it, I'll just take the Scooby again. __________ UPDATE This is definitely happening now, so book your accommodation and leave a comment below with where you are staying so I can add you to the list - Also just to say, I cant vouch for any of the accommodation I have listed below, just lisited the ones close to where I have booked that are reasonably priced. ELAN HOTEL Stu and Sarah David S Mark B THE SWAN COUTRY HOUSE B&B Derek and Marilyn THE HORSESHOE GUEST HOUSE Kerry and Sharon Jez and Andy THE HAMPTON Gaz LLANERCH INN Trev and Brian CAMPING Richy and Jackie Car count: 9 People count: 14

Unfortunately without a v5 for a donor car, you wont be able to get an age related plate. Having said that, Q plates have their benefits so I wouldnt be worries about going that route.

Depends how quickly I get the new car built, would imagine I'll get at least one Wales trip in.

Yeh it’s pretty good base, so couldn’t turn it down! The Volvo axles pretty strong, seen Volvos around 450bhp still running them and only having issues when they are trying to launch them down the drag strip on slicks. So should be fine for my smokey old pinto -
Well I suppose it is about time I show you all what is replacing the Robin Hood, so here it is, the first video in a project car series. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. I'll change the topic title to something more meaningful in a few days so those who are interested dont have the surprise spoilt. Also, for those of you who havent seen them posted elsewhere, there have been a couple of videos showing some mini-projects going on prior to the start of the build, so you may be interested in catching up on this playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhF8mZsmx_w&list=PL-_tWQqniU8kE9fgNjIv3RsQQ0AwjvdbN

I always wondered what TFM stood for, and now I know I live near the Bridgnorth one.
-
Still got a load of valve train bits, the pulley, and a mix of bolts for tings like bellhousing to engine.
-
Anything particular you were after? Not sure I have much left but I can double check.

If they've broken then would be worried about the rest of the harness. TRS do sell spares though http://totalrestraint.mc.rhp.io/accessories-harness-accessories/trs-accessories/snap-hook-kit_ct496bd191pd1681.htm

Thats not the price We had to put in a high price to stop just anybody booking on as a trader without prior approval. If you email the events email address on the advert then they will provide a discount code EDIT: Added an extra 9 to try and make that more obvious.
