Mike & Pagey,
I've got 2 empty Harvey's containers. Shall I fill'em up - could be 1 to drink and 1 to take home (it'll have to be Youngs  :D).

Mike. By "converted", if it means the real stuff, she's up for it but there is no way she'll be kicked through a set of rugby goalposts!   Trev.

Bumping this up - as a reminder, its this weekend!

There were roadworks in the Pollhill area, not sure which end but there could be delays if you come from that direction!

Thanks for that Dave.

I'll be there with the scanner if anyone needs one

(Paulscorp, or was it Nuttyscorp, did you sort out the MAF issue?)

Cheers

Paul

I'll be there with your supplies Pegasus but you'll have to watch out for Molly!!. I've also got those spares you wanted.

Post by Pegasus on Feb 20th, 2006, 10:01pm
Cheers Mike,

I'll have some extra supplies so should be enough to go round  ;)

No Paul, still not sorted it, had so much going on of late, that the poor old scorp has taken a back seat although i do now have the exhaust gaskets and other bits and bobs to see if that helps, and i'm about to start re-wiring my own coil pack loom, so fingers crossed.

Anyway, me and old nutty will be there this weekend

regards

Paul

Well another really good meet, good to see a couple of new faces (to me anyway) and some nice friendly chat.

Of course it was good to see buds mike (simmo) and paul (pegasus) again too, even with the "sump plug" gag lmao  }{ }{ }{ oh and how could i forget ellie

No pics this time though as we were the last to leave the bar area  ;) and missed photo opportunities

Paul, let me know what you decide regards the heater matrix, be interested to see how it goes. If you really need a hand, we're only a shout away

Anyway good to see you all, til next time

regards

Paul

Paul, as you say a good meet despite the freezing wind. If you help Pegasus you will leave the 'sump plug' tools at home won't you!!.Thanks for the laughs.Mike.

Title: Re: Kent meet 26 Feb
Post by paulscorp on Feb 26th, 2006, 6:44pm

Hang on a minute.... where's the joke in that?  Those are pucka tools!   :D

Hi,
yes another great friendly meet.
Simmo, Pagey (Trev&Molly), Daven, PaulS (thanks for the offer) and Russ (Nutty), Phil W and yet another Paul from Southend in a very nice looking 2.3 Ultima in Panther black (that's what the brochure says) and some others from the GSO site and, last but not least, Ellie (hope Barry survived the fishing).   8)

Good to see you all.

The back of Simmos estate looked like a fusion between a pub and a Scorpio spare parts shop - the perfect combination for a Scorpio enthusiast  ;D

Some promised info: the carbon/pollen filter is available from Jetex (its posted on the site somewhere) model "504" cost £15+VAT+pp. The site is http://www.jetex.co.uk

Couldn't find the info on the autobox specialist - must have cleared it out  :(

No pix - too b-b-b-bleeding cold - just about managed to hold my beer steady.  ::)

Looking forward to the next one (end of April possibly) and seeing you all again.

PS: Off to Penzance tomorrow - a great opportunity to give all 207 horses a good gallop.  ;)

Cheers

Paul

Yes, myself and Russ were a little concerned that as it was such a cold day, we might be the only two there lol, but thankfully you lot are hardcore too  ;)

Oh and Paul B, theres no joke there mate, you know i can perform the "Bob the Builder" with those tools  }{ Theres not a lot they won't fix and if it does go a little pear shaped, you can always buy new lol..............Oh and can you explain your absence please?? I will require a note from your parents and a doctors certificate  ;D

Paul

went well, considering the wind factor!(outside, before you ask!), most familiar faces (no paulb? only a 2 car convoy this time).
good to meet dirtyrawg69, who thought id driven up from wales }{ (long story)

thanks to liverpaul, for supplying me a 12 spoke alloy, and to Ells, for bringing it to the kent meet!

Russ

I won't know that till the weekend. He's gone fishing for a week (alright for some eh?) ::)

Post by pagey on Feb 27th, 2006, 7:17pm
Good to see you people again but a shame about the -30 degree temp. When we're discussing our toys, it's always better to actually stand alongside the thing then you can up with the lid and poke and probe things and find bits that you never realised were actually there! Look  forward to the next one.
Regards  Trevor.

Paul... Your skill and dexterity with 'those tools' is amazing!  ;)
By the way, I still have your old chisel & screwdriver oil filter removal tools in my garage. Will pop round with them soon, cos you'll be lost without them  ;)
