Just got back from a massive kit car sho in stoneleigh, it was gr8 day out loads of good crap there, a guy on a stall did take piss outa me at one point tho, when i asked for 16 foot of vaccum hose for a boost gauge set up, what's that going in a bus, err yer why? Cheeky Git!

bert,

good, glad your up 4 bugjam, let me know if you wanna pitch in with us(Lo E Nuf vw club), as i can get extra room in club camping but i will need some advance notice 3/4 weeks at the latest as its gets so rammed that space is a premium there, and man dont joke about the hill thing, there are 2 big 9astard hills enroute where the 1.7na is on its arse trying to keep pace.

soon soon the td will be in, so watch this space.

I'm another one from the uk

Down in sunny Weymoth, Dorset.

Looking for a TD engine if anybody has one going! (Not likely haha)

I might be going to bugjam, not sure yet.

I got a spare engine of you pm me we can discuss.

if i dont get a turbo by then, im not going to either :cry:

Bean · « **Reply #52 on:** June 30, 2007, 07:40:58 pm »

I've got two turbo engines now! Building a 1.9GTD

Thanks anyway :wink:

I think I might go to bugjam. Take the caddy down the strip and show all the petrolheads that diesels can kick ass too.
Can't beat the look of a pickup truck shooting down a drag strip with smoke bellowing out of a nice fat stack :twisted:

whats the plan then? Where are we meeting for malvern? I wish my car was as shiny as yours bert. I still have bits of glastonbury field dangling from the underside of mine!

rubadubdub · « **Reply #55 on:** July 03, 2007, 10:04:13 am »

any news hillshy after your last minute turbo troubles?

bert · « **Reply #56 on:** July 03, 2007, 01:59:20 pm »

Well to be honest,the show may be cancelled due to the weather,the fields will probably be a mud bath,the forecast looks poor tooso no idea,i will look at the b.v.f. website to see what they say. :cry:

We have had a number of calls and emails from visitors voicing concern over the news of flooding in the midlands and north of the country. Just to let you know that we've been in constant contact with the showground organisers and they've reported no problems and that they don't expect any due to the high ground position the showground holds compared to local rivers etc.

Senior members of the BVF comittee visited the showground yesterday to do a visual check on the showground and confirmed what the showground organisers had already reported.

We look forward to seeing you all at BVF 2007!

Bert SEE YOU THERE

Yeah it was a bit of a balls up really. I came down around 11am on sunday and had a look for your car but never found it. Saw a camper the same colour hillshy painted his engine block which i thought at a long shot might be the man himself but no joy. Wasnt really in the mood to tell you the truth as my gran got taken into hospital on the saturday and it killed the enthusiasm somewhat.

On the plus side i found someone with a GTD dash clock for me after i found a rip in my current one.

Hows the turbo fixing coming along hillshy?

Im in yorkshire dales bugjam weekend unfortunately.
