Cheers guy's.

Well, another spanner in the works!

The transporter company have just told me that they are fully booked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sent them an email last night because I hadn't heard back from one on Saturday asking to confirm my booking, Just got up to an email saying their now fully booked! WANKERS!!!!!!!!! I HATE selective email readers!

Now I've got to find another company and book with them! They were the only ones I could find too! WELL pissed off now!

Alanapone^p · 3rd December 2011, 23:10

Transporter company sorted... Getting to pick the van up on Friday after work so I get to park it outside for an extra night and piss of the people across the road even more! lol.

I need some spacers for the rear wheels as their ford fitment and rub on the arches now!

Got the North West Sax-P/106Owners meet tomorrow so I doubt i'll get much done before or after!

I'll need to get a shift on through the week to make sure it's ready! I'm going to see if I can get a few days off work as I'm getting a bit panicky now!

PLUS we've got some builders coming to rip out a load of damp plaster, Renew the DPC and re-plaster downstairs. This means I need to spend Monday and Tuesday evenings shifting all our stuff from the kitchen and living room up and into the spare room!

I like reading this hope it turns into a nice little toy because im thinking of giving this a go and the £1000 budget makes it seem even easier

Alanapone^p · 4th December 2011, 10:26

That's exactly why I'm doing this mate. To show people that you don't NEED to spend £££££ on a car for the track. To be honest you don't even need to spend what I have!

Rich84 · 4th December 2011, 11:03

You wanna borrow my spacers off my racer1's till you get some?

Alanapone^p · 4th December 2011, 12:18

That would be sweet if I could mate! I'm going to try and get a few days off at the end of the week, I'll text you to arrange nipping over for them.

What size are they and will I need to get some bolts?

Rich84 · 4th December 2011, 12:23

They'll be perfect mate, mine are ford fit aswell. Got extended bolts too

Ramigojag · 4th December 2011, 14:19

My plan is to do something similar to this on a budget for abit of fun and depending how i get on then look into more power possibly.

When you planning on getting it on the track?

Alanapone^p · 4th December 2011, 20:11

Rich, Thats awesome mate cheers. I'll let you know asap when I can get over for them.

Ramigojag, I've got a day booked at Anglesey next weekend. I can't wait!

My mate has been round today with his welder again. He's been practising and has cleaned up his welder so his welds are back to a decent standard.

We decided to cut up the frame that I got off Rich and reconfigure it. As I had the North West sax-p/106Owners meet today I left him to it after talking to him about what needed doing. I got back to find the frame all done and a coat of primer on it ready for painting

I've had a look at all the welds and they look bob on. I'll get some pictures tomorrow for the critics to have a look at

All in all, today has been a good day... Cold but really good.

Got a meal to go to tomorrow evening but then hopefully I can get a shift on with getting these last few bit's sorted. I need to swap the front drivers side strut. wax-oil the underside of the welded part. put the gearbox oil in. change the callipers and discs over. fit the seat. tidy the wiring and refit the switches etc.

When I look at the list I think it's not going to be ready but REALLY, I've only got two big jobs to do now. the rest is just little bits. Bar the spacers the rear end is complete. It shouldn't take more than 2 evenings to swap the strut and fit the callipers. Just GOT to get a shift on!

Rich84 · 4th December 2011, 20:53

good shit yo!

if i get a chance to pop over during work(cough) il drop them in but i dont think i will tbh

Alanapone^p · 4th December 2011, 21:04

K, I need to try and get Wednesday to Friday off so if I can I'll nip over.

Alanapone^p · 5th December 2011, 16:19

Awesome news!

Got Wednesday Thursday and Friday off.... Bad news, Can't do anything until then as we've got to clear the ground floor of the house so the Damp proof people can come and work their magic!

Hopefully Rich, I'll come down when the guys are here and set to work on Wednesday so stick them in the car and take them to work with you mate.

Gives me 3 full days to work the seat out and do all the other bits... Should be plenty of time

Rich84 · 5th December 2011, 16:23

Right'o mate, txt me about half 7 to remind me to bring em with me tomorrow

Alanapone^p · 5th December 2011, 16:24

You mean half seven tomorrow to remind you to bring them on Wednesday
