What are you doing prepare for Cosford?

Rabett_Rover · 10th April 2009, 00:35

To start you off
I am having Connie's wheels restored on Friday 17th
I am also spending all of Friday afternoon and Saturday morning cleaning, polishing and giving Connie some love, care and attention.

What about the rest of you?

I'm trying not to drop to much on my floor when eating lunch.

Putting on new wheels and a good clean

Mind you by the meet will need another clean

i am lucky this year as Cosford only about 10 miles or so from where i live, I will be putting back my chrome wheels and polishing it on Saturday, and keeping fingers crossed about the weather for Sunday.

I'll be having the car valeted on Friday. But as I have the best part of 200 miles to drive on Saturday, it won't be all that clean by the time I get to Cosford!

And this weekend I'll be doing all the little jobs on the car that I've been meaning to do for a while

JohnDotCom · 10th April 2009, 07:03

How do you all find this time to do this?
I'm lucky if I can find a spare half hour during the day,
might need a corner Bri to hide mine by the sound of things.

The only difference between this meet and new forest for me will be I have more supurmarket dents and scratches

. and the car has as well

Edit: Slipped quietly past the 22k I see JDC

Having mine professionally polished today.

Not cheap but I have never had to spend a penny on her since I bought it so I thinks she deserves a treat.

Should look really nice its navy blue

Told you once Mike, better spending your money on a "chrome trim retaining security device"

JDC will have it away if he can
