That would be mighty kind of you John......It'll be a chance to see all the developments with the Spider

You've been saying that for ages now! Got mine at Mango but probably not the cheapest. |

er not quite Lee , the kit is on , the rear slam panel is on , its at the filler and sanding stage, Im waiting for some 1 piece poly carbonate rear door windows now and I need to get the metal/rubber front door strip that sits between the door and window (just below the mirrors) to replace the rear one. I think its another month away yet and I have not bought any tyres and spacer for the front wheel hubs . Other than that it looks cool. _________________ PHAT 33 |

I have booked my Spa tickets today, there is a 20 euro discout in getting your cars into the paddock area unless you book after mid April.
I have 2 Grand Parades booked 1 Sat and 1 Sun. Any of you guys participating in some track side action?. _________________ PHAT 33 |

Haven't booked anything yet Iain. Wouldn't mind getting out there again though. I expect the Tolleymeister will be hurtling around on a few scuds |

Getting quite excited now chaps. Quite possible this year that Andy might take his 146 and I'll ride as a (probably drunk) passenger.
I want to get the 33 running properly and it's difficult with a deadline to meet for SPA. I'm still amazed it made it there and back last time!
Iain... We'll do the same dates for crossing as you (I think the Friday out, Wednesday back).
Must contact the owner of the villa to tell him we're leaving on Wednesday and not the Friday - last year was a mess! Although we did stop over in Brugge on the way back for a £100 steak!
Here is a random "Belgium" image from the internet to get us thinking about the event... Totally random :

I took the mileage from my doorstep to doorstep and it was just shy of 1100 miles.......I was shocked myself..................that the car made it that far.
I'm really up for muchos, muchos chilli muchangos (what the hell are they Bob?)
I've started the '2010 Restoration' work......some photos to follow! |

Now here's a spot the difference competition!
Before:
After:
Yep, I can't see it either You'll just have to trust me the old one was quite rusty and the new one looks far better on the car........I'm now off to do some more pointless paintwork |

I'll keep that in mind in future Bob!
I've just taken delivery of some Bilt Hamber products. I've got 4 cans of Dynax S50 cavity wax and a clay bar and their Auto Balm. It's got some great reviews so i'll be interested to see what finish it gives me.
I'm off to fill me cavity |
