Picked up my freshly machined block, along with my crank. Not like it's going to be fitted over a weekend though

today my mods will be.... (ahem)
EDITed
*washing off about six weeks of crud and rain-stain - done, looks nice, took hardly any work apart from the left hand sills!
*repairing and refitting the oldskool hot air hose - cant find the bloody thing, think me mum's thrown it out! (she crashed into a lot of my spares on her last entry to the garage)
*finally putting the column surround back on - complete pig of a job but done!

Never quite got it running 100%, though it's a s**t quicker than it was! Mr Barningfield came over to collect a GT box and drop off some bits, so we tinkered with my car a bit and had a drive around. Did head into Retford later on, but no-one wanted to play. Just as well really - was pretty wet and wheelspin in 3rd doesn't make for rapid progress.madmatt wrote:me and metz went to worksop looking for you both tonight and give you a hand with the barry bashing but could not spot you anywhereamstrange1 wrote:Then fiddle with my CO pot to get it running right, and all being well go Barry-bashing Sat night.where do you go barry bashing can a mk 3 saloon and mk 2 coupe help next time give us a shout

Ah, it's you two my mate in Blyth's seen! He kept telling me about a couple of Polos parked up there. Blyth's probably just as near to my house as Retford, I live in a s**t little village in the middle of nowhere called Lound! Am at uni in Nottm during the week, just end up coming home most weekends to tinker with me car - would be good to meet up sometime.

What cars your mate got?
We always part near the green just outside the pub.
Just let me know when your back home and we can meet up in blyth if you fancy it

Yeah, that's cool. My bro's hoping to pass his test soon, but if you see a red GT coupe driving about with L-plates give him a wave!
My mate's a Fiat driver unfortunately... Used to have a gold Uno 'til it died a month or two back - has a red Cinq Sporting now, despite heavy persuasion that a Polo GT was the way to go!
