Newcastle Car Stripping Party
Any people in and around newcastle (gateshead) wanna pop over in a few weeks and help me strip down a 4x4 sierra over the weekend. Beers and tea
supplied, maybe even a few sandwiches 
Be good to see whos in and around this area, as i'm here fairly often. ChrisR has already said he'd help.
So who else wants to have a bit of fun with a sierra? Any tools you wanna bring would be cool.
Cars sat in Bensham, Gateshead.

Ben,
Don't know anyone with an engine hoist, but DJ Tool Hire on the valley have one, not sure what the rate is but we use them all the time for
work.
I've got two sets of plans so we could just build one.
Anyone in Town got one?

with all you guys on the case, you shouldn't need an engine crane, either lift the engine out the car or the car over the engine!
