Peter, I don't know how easy it is to get trim in Switzerland, do let us know if you'd like to get anything in the the UK delivered to one of us before the rally - may save you quite a lot on postage!

Peter - You mention that you are going to do the inner roof - I take it that you mean the cloth covering ?? - we call it a headlining in the UK - were you going to do it yourself or take it to a trimmer for doing ?? - If doing it yourself we maybe able to help you - we have a pattern for the Javelin headlining and were going to make and fit our own our own to the Project B Javelin - so could make another up if required - I think I can give you a step by step process for removal and refitting (I have fitted many headlinings before but not on a Javelin)

Let me know if we can help - or we can talk about it at the rally - Regards Chris

Well, I'd imagine not... ;)

As for Javelins, you'll soon be getting practice.

:lol:

I'm not related to your wife, no. But isn't it nice to know that you can't get away with anything in the garage that you couldn't get away with at home? :wink:

Good to meet you both at Daventry Peter and Ruth. Will you be bringing the Javelin to Wales next year? Your polo shirts are on order and we will let you know when they arrive. Best wishes from a sunny Edinburgh today. Ruby (Scottish Section)
