Final Call for 1 more Delorean at Carfest South.

Please help me fill the stand, after all it's for Children in Need :thumbsup:

Otherwise I have 2 spare tickets/passes for the weekend at £60 each. (Ben/Dan?)

Regards
D

Darren, I've emailed you seperately re this, Hope to bring vin 16644, I can only do the Saturday though. I Hope to show up subject to fitting a clutch this week which should be ok providing Euro car parts haven't messed up as usual. For info while the is box out I intend to replace the main crankshaft oil seal as a precaution. Euro car pats stock one for the Volvo b28f. Same part? Providing crank is the same it should be correct but any info greatly appreciated. I use Euro car parts daily but have about as much trust in their parts database as I would in a Jewish pig farmer! ( or Muslim or Rastafarian or vegetarian or any other non pork eating denomination so as not to appear antisemetic).

Any info re the oil seal greatly appreciated. Hope I can make it Saturday.

Mark

Darren's son, Adam nearly got ran over by him, in a buggy thing, I think that was about as close as he got. He was dotting around all weekend though. Also can I just say thanks to Darren for sorting it, cos it was a mega weekend & I mean top notch, anyone going to the North one, you have a really great time ahead of you.

Where do I start ? That's easy..... Huge thanks to Darren for organising the whole thing including our 5 star accomodation. The weekend was brilliant and now that it's over and thinking about all the little moments and chuckling to myself I have just officially upgraded that to Awesome ! Thanks Lisa for taking my daughter Erin under your "wing" and teaching her about life and the universe all in two days ! All the Delorean owners who are an absolute pleasure to be around. Wilf and Carol who Darren managed to get to come along with their VW camper. Great people and all down to Darren's hard work and enthusiasm, as was the Lybian replica. The magic and funny moments that happened all through the weekend which I shall bore the pants off anyone who is unfortunate enough to listen ( alcohol will help ). All the kids who stood drenched in the middle of torrential rain and a thunderstorm to vote our Deloreans as the best cars at the show. I nicked the trophy while everyone was looking at the Vulcan bomber !! Ten year old Henry the Delorean stalker ! Don't knock it, he will buy your car one day ! Adam ( Darren's son ) who secretly enjoyed the whole weekend and is an up and coming skateboard champ ( has bloodied knees to prove it.........really ). And to my mum, without whom this wouldn't have been possible............of course my Dad was there and..............what Erin?................... O, errr...............Go and ask Lisa, she'll fill in the gaps. Nuff said.......except, if those going to Carfest north have half such a good time the're in for a treat !
PS.....If you can get me an accomodation upgrade Darren I might even go meself !!!
