GO TEAM - only problem is that i need somewhere to put the car .. anyone got some space XD

funny thing is i have no idea where my car is .. it went from Naths place and then taken to Wes. so ill have to find out where he is holding it.

Sam-Q - that would be great if you could help me as well .. i was going to need your help as well with some rust repairs if possible

so it looks like the next meet up is decided then! I will come so long as the time is right and it's on the east side.

I can't help with space right now I have cross-member parts all over my floor right now doing this TA22 rack and pinion stuff. Rust repairs in the near future is possible.

Well worse case scenario if there's no where to put the car that ill have to take the car back from the east and bring it home to the west, I'm usually working Monday to Friday so if anything I may have to work out something when I get back from holidays (11/03)

Event of February: Help Nam get his car running hehe
