mmmkay, Ive got two things crossed off the list tonight. I got the Fuel pump mounted, and got the wiper system mounted.

And I may need just a tad of a guard chop.

Now, is anyone keen to help me out on sat? Im not sure if Mros going to come or not, but I want to get a fair chunk of stuff done. If james comes, then it will be just him and me, with QBW aproaching rather quickly.

BTW James, Ive told you ya dont "owe" me anything :wink:

I dont mind helping mates out to get their vehicles going.

I Will be there.....We may need to go pick up disco in the morning. I shall also be there sunday to help. Il drag Jamie out there to. If we can get the brakes done this weekend we may be able to have a little shakedown at Aotea on sunday late afternoon or something if you still have access in there

turoa · Post by **turoa** » Thu May 10, 2007 4:55 pm

Anyone who was tempted(except you redzuk)i, dont bother. My LR wont be ready for queens B-day. I guess this weekend will be filled with driving the daewoo and getting the disco brakes on. Wont be much entertainment or things to do up here.

Jerry · Post by **Jerry** » Thu May 10, 2007 5:23 pm

Any particular reason it won't be ready?.....sod the Daewoo.....get Mr O's fricken truck done and kick it out and then finish the Rover

I have got volunteers I can get more...I just threaten to nag them about towhooks or something until they do :lol:

Probly not, vitara rear doors are fairly tall. Think we have it sorted anyway

Bubba · Post by **Bubba** » Fri May 11, 2007 2:20 pm

No I'm not driving to the Hutt without a back door! I was thinking of strapping it to the roof but with my luck it would just come off and I would end up with two fcked backdoors.

Might have to spend $20 and get a trailer, bugger it
