Maybe a trailer is looking like the most feasible option for me... everyone seems to think I've got no hope and I reckon there's a chance if I work kinda hard and the people who said they will help out do come through and I'm not delayed... I guess I'll just see how I go

I'll give you a day and we'll get that motor running as best we can.
After the body is ready. :tease:

Well, i pulled my car apart yesterday..... So i have started the rebuild! By the look of it, it may not be as hard as i first thought! Plan is to paint the car in a month! Which means i might make the drag day!

And if not?
Maddy's UC?

Spoke to LX2DR (Paul) yesterday and he kindly offered to pick me up for the cruise up there, so I'll come along and take some snaps or help out in the little booth so you guys can get your time slips...
As long as nothing pops up... I'm there!

Thanks Paul! :spoton:

Heath, just get out there and do it, its your first car, it doesn't have to be perfect. Just finish it off and make it reliable and put it on LPG before you have to buy a 1985 Laser as transport.
