I can not Waite, but not ready, decided to fit my Swedish inlet an having to mod loads of bits to fit, and got the steering rack off because it had play in it. No bugger had one so had to send mine off for refurb. It will be ready an I will be there... My works looks like the Pitts of a rally team at the mo pmsl

any show is what you make of it and as passionford is taking 100 cars along so its rude not to go, and the atmosphere should be great with all the PF banter on stand from its dedicated members
