I have a couple of things to attend to first thing tomorrow morning and a bit of a drive so I won't make it before you leave to get the engine. I'll pop up to help with the installation, though. If someone can PM me a mobile number that would be good in case you aren't back when I do arrive.

Cheers,

kevin

OK, the plan seems to be coming together, which is somewhat worrying seeing as this car is jinxed....  :-/


Plan:
Tunnie, Bo Bo, LFF64, TD meet at mine 9:30. We leave at 9:30 to meet seller in Brackley at 9:45, and follow him to his dads farm.  We make a start on disconnecting all the junk from the engine ready for removal. Omegatoy will meet us there around 11ish.  Hope to have engine out by 12 - 1ish.  Back to mine to take out my engine (mostly everything disconnected) and put this one in.

I have got out the gas bbq, have some burgers and bangers, along with rolls etc, so if someone finds they don't have a task, they can fire that up.  Plenty of cans of soft drinks in.

9:30  :o

Hoping i could get a ly in & be fashionably late, but if your meeting the seller, can't do that!  >:(

Ok 9:30, stealer opens at 8:30, i'll pick up those parts and anti-freeze from the dealer, and see you at 9:30.
