Re: Kit car show and agm Stoneleigh

Hi all,

just to re-iterate what everyone is saying, it was good to meet the few that I did. I have also sold the Midas thanks to the show and also the guys that were there whilst I was walking about the show I think!

Re: Door Seals / Waterproofing

Hi All,

I really lucked out today. I went to a scrapyard in the hunt for suitable door seals for my mark 3 convertible and this should help a good many out!

I will be taking the car to the Stonleigh kit car show unless it ...
