Stockport Woodsmoor Classic Car Show - Get your fucking arses in gear, would you now!


Recommended Posts

No good for helping with cars as I'm not sure my insurance permits and I've never driven LHD - probably not going to be able anyway, but I don't even know as I don't even have my policy documents yet.

I'll be there with the Volvo though.

Posted

I'm afraid my presence and that of my LHD conveyance are required much closer to home on that date.  In fact I'm sort-of looking for someone to bring Giffer for me...

Posted

Whoever wants to contribute to the donation bit, please PM me and I shall avail to you my Paypal details.

Posted

The only LHD car I've ever driven was a BX, back in the days when they were young enough to have warranties etc. But that was in Germany, so pretty sure it doesn't count.

 

I'll be up for this, not sure what in yet though.

Posted

Is it just turn up and they let you display or do you need to book, is there an autoshite section, my Maserati is taxed and insured now so I might whizz over in it providing nothing expensive falls off between now and then

Posted

You just show up, it's free, but a donation is expected.

It's a very relaxed affair, so it won't be a big problem to park the Autoshite delegation together,

however, this would be a lot easier to organise if I knew beforehand space for how many cars we will need.

Posted

Policy documents through and I can't help. Might be able to trailer the 16 though, if you can find a trailer.

Posted

Last call for donations!

 

Could the people actually attending please let me know, so I can get our space organised?

 

Also, still wanted: LHD savvy and sober driver. Will settle for either.

I'll be there. Can't offer any help on the driving front because insurance wankers, sadly.

I can take the R16. There will be plenty of Rovers present already.

You take your Rover. I found a driver.

Oh, good!

Oh, no!

UGH. If I didn't have a press deadline of Tuesday, I might have been up for this. As it is, I'm stuck doing far too much work for a Bank Holiday weekend.

You didn't prep your car for the show?

 

It's not that sort of car. 

Posted

I actually damaged it for the show. Caught one of the sidelight nipples with my brush, and snapped it clean off. 

 

Yes, the one I installed last month. No, I cannot find the snapped off bit on the road. Yes, I hate myself. 

Posted

I had a choice of washing the Volvo or changing the diff oil. I did the latter...

Posted

Can't I leave you muppets on your own for five minutes, ffs?

 

Sidelight lens with sexy nipple available here, also crosshead screwdriver.

 

Diff oil change, my arse. Even on the TFFC I filled the old diff oil back in after I changed the ratio.

Posted

Sorry can't make it , I wasn't expecting my maserati be drivable but it is so i've been given permission to go to the gold cup at oulton park provided I'm out all day and bring wine home

 

Sounds like a marriage to me

Posted

I have not only washed the CJ, but also excised the sandwich wrappers and water bottles from the passenger footwell.

 

See y'all in the morning.

So regarding a space being organised what's the plan?

Shall I bring The Banner?

Posted

Why not?

You have an estate. Although a dirty one with shiny diff oil.

A sizeable wad will be handed over on behalf of Autoshite, thanks to the few but extremely generous donators,

so I guess showing off our colours would be rather appropriate.
