As Chris seems incapable of asking - - Can anyone spare a day or so (or even a morning) over the christmas period (Ideally 27 & 28 - But also 29 & 30 too) to assist with the Duster.

I Believe the plan as it stands is as follows -

Saturday the 24.
The Duster is moved to the Unit (at Leighton Buzzard) to dry out over christmas.
Prep the area.  Get dust sheets up etc . . .

Tuesday the 27.
The Front end.  The Wings need to be finished being hung - Volunteers !
Also the cowl (I'll do) and Final prep.

Wednesday the 28.
Front end must be finished and prepped.
Doors must be (Very) nearly done too.

Thursday the 29.
Doors finished and prepped.
Roof/Posts Finished and prepped.
Also as much of the rear quarters and boot lid as I can possibly do.

Friday the 30.
Spraying.

(Ideally) Monday 2 Jan.
Transfer to the Barn (Brackley)

There'll be other odds and sods which need doing that will help but obviously the priority is the bodywork.

Can't promise, but I'll see what I can do.  You never know, I might be allowed out to play.

I'll help out provided you don't mind giving me some tuition... I'm off that week

Only thing is i'm planning on changing my Headlights Setup that week so i'll need a couple of days to do that.
It's the time that we kill that keeps us alive...

No Problem.

Although I'd love someone to do the bodywork - I've come this far so I may as well finish !!!

Mainly It'll be helping Chris finish odds and sods . . . Maybe take off boot lid /bonnet.  Hang/fit the wings.  Little prep work maybe.  Finish off suspension and brake bits.  Bleed brakes.
Depending how far we get - Fit lights, bumpers . . . .

That sort of stuff.

The Unit has heating and Toilets, kitchen, internet etc . . . (It's my offices) For those who've never made the trip.

Shit, boy - Nothing like leaving it til the last.

Roadkill

Anyone got any ideas for transporting the thing ?

I can see this going VERY pear-shaped.

And It'll be a complete waste of my time if it does.


Roadkill

(With a bit of effort) The Duster is now at the Unit in Leighton Buzzard.


FUBAR

All set for Xmas week then?
