Dodgy day 12th of July

Postby d-mag » Mon Jun 29, 2009 10:44 pm

Who wants a Dodgy day? 8)

I'm thinking maybe Sunday the 12th of July?

I'll supply meat and beer, if you want lolly water, bring it yourself. :D

Address: 2/274 Settlement Rd Thomastown (behind Supercheap Auto). The place can fit 25+ cars with maybe 6 indoors.

I have most tools to do most jobs, but if you want to do something 'specialised' that requires some sort of funky tool, bring it yourself.

does anyone know how much it should cost me to get a set of bonnet hinges? Maybe thats something I could do... Sounds like a fun job :roll: Would be good to have some people on hand to help.

No my passengers side hinge has seen better days. It rattles and the bonnets kind of floats at high speeds... I did a few things on the weekend which made it better but I could use a new one. Apparently to replace it you have to remove the bonnet and the guard though.

i'm sure james@mx5centre could help you out with a hinge.

taking the panels off is easy, lining them up again properly can be a bit tricky tho. you've seen my car, right? :lol: altho i'mn sure eith a few people on hand to line things up properly, it'd be a bit easier.
