here's a link
It's off a bend in the A25 - National Trust car park with a good cafe.
Usually people turn up from about 9.30ish and stay till 12.30/1.00ish (me, anyway )
Shouldn't be too far for you!
I'll be there if the weather holds (coming from Sevenoaks)
Cheers,
Simon

Thanks Humbug. I'm going to try to be there. I've been reading this webpage for a long time, quite excited to see the homemade cars.

If you think that's technical you should see the repair conrod did to a dodgy clutch cable afterwards. Let's just say it
involved...er....twigs! Wonder if he got home ok?

cheers for your help in getting me home ok.If a jobs worth doing fit the right cable length to start with,it melted on the header and after an hour
the plastic set solid.Had to start the engine and wait for the plastic to remelt and give me some clutch travel which was made better with conrods
twigs and a shoelace we found on the floor

Excellent repair/bodge well at least it got you home.
Some of conrods finest work there, shame he couldnt fit a fuel sender in his tank though.
At least the petrol was only 111.9 at the ripley shell garage, just a shame the petrol can was £5.39 empty plus a bacon roll and a coffee.
