Midas Cars Forum - www.midascarsforum.com

The Midas Rebuild Forum which Alistair will be leading at Open Day, Sunday 24 July, his workshop on the Enstone Airfield Business Park, is timed to start at 11.00 a.m.
Alistair did mention that there is a Game Fair at Blenheim Palace that weekend. This very popular event could lead to some traffic congestion around Woodstock on the A 44, so you might like to plan an alternative route to the workshop. Local lanes quite attractive !!

I'm not from Manchester, but will be returning up the M6 because I have to collect a gearbox from Warrington. Would you be able to meet me somewhere on the M6, maybe a service area? I really don't want to divert off the motorway any more than I need to because I want to get back to the Dundee area as quickly as possible...

that would be wonderful you tell me where and i will meet you there im at junction 17 m60 and will travel anywhere to meet you my closest junctions are 21a and 23 only problem is i have not paid for it i have cash waiting though

Okay, but I won't have a good idea when I'll be passing until I've left the open day. If you PM me your phone number I'll contact you on Sunday when I have a better idea of when I'll be passing.
How much do you owe Alistair for the cable?

Hi All,

The idea of the Rebuild Forum, is to give everybody the chance to ask questions and also to contribute with their own experiences.

I intend to give a couple of demonstrations to illustrate some of the simpler restoration techniques that we can all apply to our cars: for example using buffing compound to bring dull Gelcoat back to gloss.

If anyone has a particular question that might best be answered by a practical demonstration please contact me in advance, or post the question up here.

Hope to see many Midas Owners at Enstone on Saturday.

Alistair

Hi All

Alistair, I think, means SUNDAY the 24th NOT Saturday. The Open Day is SUNDAY the 24th July for sure.

Thanks David, yes I did mean SUNDAY.

But if anyone does turn up on Saturday, I'll be there at Enstone!

Alistair
