I have a BBQ as well so there will be more than enough cooking space.

Attendance list, hopefully Steampunk will publish one...

I may yet make it. It's going to be tight. Mark, can you PM me your address, & I'll see what happens.

Hi Guys,

Unfortunately I won't be able to make this - Mrs Weasel and myself went shopping today for a new bed, and it's being delivered next Saturday. Apologies to Magpie, Lachy and Steampunk - I'll try and arrange another detail day in the new year and you guys can be first on the list.

Cheers
Pete

Shame but enjoy the new bed

Sorry guys - looks like I cannot make it. Trying to re-juggle things, but not looking good. :cry:

Anyone know how to pull dents? I caught a few hail stones yesterday afternoon

Only 3 dents, two on the bonnet, one behind the hood. Not really enough to use my insurance for though I suspect.

Ouch! Sorry to hear about that mate......

As for insurance, you may be surprised, being an aluminum bonnet the insurance would probably replace it as fixing one is very difficult. Expensive either way.
Are there any dings in that scratched boot lid of yours?

Sure can, depending on what the damage looks like.

No, its not in the boot lid! There's a small one on the body work between the boot and the roof! Bit bummed by it all, but that'll teach me to disregard storm warnings!

I copped a few on the NC (bonnet and boot ) but I'm going to wait till after Xmas .
Because I live fairly central to the CBD I'm going to suggest a dodgy repair day at my place.
Setup a PDR guy in the carport and just line up the repair work. Should make it a fair bit cheaper for everyone if the guy doesn't have to travel and he has a few cars to work on?
