Hi John,

I'll probably come down this weekend, interested in a few things,
Front seats with fixed headrest for a clubby.
Top dash pad with warning lights

Imsure there's other stuff I want/need too, but am drawing a blank now :)

I have a sick sense for planning trips on weekends you have sales! ;)

Cheers Nick

Don't suppose you would have a 1275 crank, It might be worth the trip up to get one of the bloody things.

If my mechanic manages to pull his finger out and give me a blue slip today, I might see if I can cruise down tomorrow to christen it/show it off/have a poke around.

It'd be good if I was able to read. I see now that it's this weekend coming. Let's see if the stars align and I can get down there.
