If anyone from your way is coming up to the next Longwell meet then I could probably get it from Swindon, to there. That's if he's got one obviously.

steve_p
31-08-2006, 20:07
he has got a blue one, that will do. i could get to bristol thats about it so if anyone could get it from moonhead to bristol M5 that would be great, or if anyone is taking a trip near i wil pay money for them to be my private courier!

Jeff
31-08-2006, 20:16
If you have the deal sorted with Moonhead, I can fetch the part and give it to someone nearer to you at the next Longwell meet, if someone's coming up. For that I'd try asking in the latest Longwell Meet thread Pete C started :thumbs:

Jeff

1 blue drivers side wing is now sat in the boot of my car :) Can you let me know who I need to give this to at the Longwell meet?

Jeff
09-09-2006, 22:00
Steve: There was no one at the Longwell meet today that could get this any nearer to you than it already is, so it's still in the back of my Silvia :rolleyes: :o

Let me know what you want me to do with it next :thumbs:

Not sure when I'll have time to meet you but I can put the wing in the back of my (never locked) Capri so you can fetch it from my house whether I'm there or not? I live about 5 minutes from the Longwell meet location :)

If that sounds do-able then let me know and I'llPM you my addy :thumbs:

09-10-2006, 19:28
yeh i know but now it will have brand new body work, and a brand new engine, i have decided to rebuild a complete engine, top to bottom, every seal, every gasket will be changed, new piston rings and conrods (pistons are ok to use again), my crank i get back tomorrow, new turbo seals just to be safe! and then a remap to make sure everything is running smoothly, its going to be a brand new car after this! good as new! then nothing will go wrong again!lol also got a Bride bucket to put in, excited about that! lol

rob they are good but i am not sure about prices, they are cheaper then the likes of koncepts though! and produce some good work
