Love the 12" banded steelies,they look great.

As we all know IMM 2017 is coming to Piltown and part of organising it involves promotion of the event to ensure it's success.There are two shows coming up where we will need members to man promotion stands and help out for the day.The first is on Saturday August the 27th where we will have a stand ...

As part of the IMM entertainment I plan on having an "awesome Irish hour" after the band finishes on Friday night.This is an hour of some of the best Irish songs every recorded so I am looking for your suggestions to help fill an hour of the best Irish music to show our IMM guests a good I...

Congratulations to Darran Hutchinson who was awarded the Jack Daniels trophy this weekend.A very deserving recipient.

I have a decent Clubman Estate roof if you're still looking.Pillars are cut shorter than Jamie's one.

Usually stamped on the back of the wheel otherwise you would have to measure from the inside of the rim to inside of the rim which would mean taking a tyre off but try the back first.

The problem is that getting a better shell than that is going to cost money and it will probably still need work.At least if you do your own shell properly and rust proof it,you know what you have.

What's it like on the Falkens Jamie,I find mine is very entertaining in the wet

The spec does not seem to be on the Minisport page Dave so I was wondering what the inlet and outlet valve sizes were.

Bring the umbrellas,weather is a bit mixed for tomorrow but always a great show.

I have been contact by a guy called James Kenna who is looking for 3 Minis to drive him and his grooms men to the church on his wedding day.The wedding is on the 5th of August and it is on in the Leixlip House Hotel.He would prefer if he could get green,white and orange Mini's but if these are not a...

The Carraig Hotel in Carrick on Suir was nearly booked up at last years camping weekend.Waterford would be the best bet with loads of availability.

Hopefully they have allowed us enough room for everyone,I emailed them the amount of cars and people that we had on April the 8th so we should be good.In Kent,the organisers did not have us down for our own camp site even though I did email them our requirements which meant we had to go to the unres...

I have had two sets of subframes powder coated and the first one is showing signs of rust whereas the second it not.I think the prep for the second was better.The thing with powder coat is that it loses it shine after a while and becomes dull.I think the next set I do I will get them blasted and use...

(New unit arrived last night & old one (now working) will be carried as a spare.)
Does this mean you are travelling to the IMM in it,be a shame not to after the big push to get it finished.

I contacted them in early April when they opened for business in the 2016 season and they would not accept one night bookings in their mobile homes,they would only accept a minimum of a 2 night stay.Maybe they have changed their policy but I booked in Abbeville instead.

Back on the road for IMM 2017? the tin worm has really taken hold but good to see you're tackling it before it is terminal.

Remove the rad,alternator and manifold along with the exhaust.If you split the top ball joint you can pop the pot joint out but drain the oil first.You can leave the speedo cable connected until the engine is up a bit and then undo it when you have the room.You need to undo the gearchange,I forget w...

You are going to have to polish those rims as there is corrosion on the aluminium under the lacquer.Youtube has loads of videos of how to polish wheel rims or get them professionally refurbished.

Episode 12 of project Binky is up on Youtube.Well worth a watch.

I have a Radtec alloy rad in my 16v GT and I have a Minispares 2 core in my 16V Estate and I find the 2 core to be every bit as capable of cooling as the alloy one,even when towing the Puck.And the Minispares one was half the price of the Radtec one which is made in the UK and not to be confused wit...
