Sydney - Working bee and BBQ
G'day boys,
Was wondering if anyone in or near Sydney would like to have a get together and help me swap engines from my parts car to my GQ wagon?
I have never done this before but am willing to learn (but it would be good to have a few boys there to point me in the right direction.)
Will put on food and drinks for us.
Any takers?
Time frame. Possibly the ANZAC day long weekend on either Saturday or Sunday or the weekend after.
Would be good to have a meet and greet too.
Cheers,
Rob

I could come over and help but I'm no mechanic. Not sure if the boss has already made plans or not for the long weekend but pencil me in. Saturdays I will only be able to do arvo as the boy has soccer in the morning.
If you hand me a paintbrush, I will be leaving!
Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time
WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.

Saturday arvo sounds good to me. Im no mechanic either but I will research as much as I can and give it a red hot go.
No painting that weekend so your safe. (Should be finished by then.... if it stops raining.

Get motors side by side swap bolt ons refit. If you are methodical it wont be too hard.
In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.
