Midlands Nano Meets

Record here any feedback from the meet, maybe a comment on the venue, thanks to someone who helped you, or if you had work done on your car how did it go, or anything else you wish to mention

Absolutely fantastic to finally meet everyone in attendance today! A great bunch of very knowledgeable gentlemen! Your help today has been brilliant and greatly appreciated. It's been excellent meeting the crew and the cars. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you very, very much, Gentlemen!

We had 15 cars today and lovely weather, few jobs got done plus the usual advice help and catching up with old and a few new faces , as ever thanks to everyone who came and particularly those who travelled a good distance to get to us, plus special thanks to all the crew and Steve (Arctic) who always works tirelessly from start to finish and because i had hurt my back the day before fitted my PCV and Air filter in my Freelander, my pictures of the day are at viewtopic.php?f=243&t=779&p=10620#p10620

Another good one, knocked the rust of dash fitting and the dark oak looked good.

Weather gods still with us tooi

Well what can we say, except the weather gods once again shinned on us, after a few days of rain, nice to see all the regulars and new faces, great to work along side Les and Scott again, gold resistor, fitted tourer tail gate brackets sorted out for Tom whom is a nice chap and was prepared to drive quite a long way to come and join fair play to him, also nice to see Duncan have a day to mix and rest from T4 work, even though he does not mind the T4 work stalwart of the Nano meets, looking forward to the next one in June when i might be in my new drive if i find it in time, all the best guys

Those tourer tailgate brackets are a great idea Steve and can easily be colour coded to the car , i forget to get a picture though !

These are the raw product before the centre hole is drilled. i used to have some different ones but run out of those, did a few at the Four ashes used to go round adding them before the strut broke away, prevention as the saying goes.

You can see the weak point spot welds on a joint which is always moving and becomes flexibly to the point it breaks.

Some memories in those pictures Steve, that one of your tourer taken at Rugeley Rover P6 meet if i remember right, plus our old venue of Teddybears and not forgetting Bruno, used to love seeing him wandering around he had such a good temperament

It's taken at Hawkesyard Hall, near Rugeley so it makes sense. The upper floor of the turret shaped bit of the building was our confenece room. My lab was a bit further to the left (out of view).
