Sweet. I want to see this thing.


[PS, you're going to make Maurits come, right? I'm sure he should manage to keep one of his two alive]

The Talooon may be coming off the road sooner than I expected..the seizing rear caliper is noisey as hell I looked at the pad and its crumbling away as well as the heater fan needs to be replaced. To add to this we are going to be fostering a rescued dog from Taiwan starting this Saturday so two huskies in the back is a little too much.
So I am tentatively going to I won`t be able to make it :'(. Things may change from now till then but I doubt I will have time to replace that crap and study for finals in the next few weeks...

C'mon Matt

You've missed too many meets!

I'm sure some of us Vic members could find a bit of time to help out...
Get it up in the air, pop the wheels off, one person on each side for brakes. Half hour, tops.

It's pretty much April now... You won't need a heater fan for a few months!



Hell, I've got Friday, Saturday, Sunday off. If you can find parts I'll help out.

go out right now and spray all the ebrake lever/springs etc on the caliper with penetrating oil.  Hit anything that looks like it might sieze up.

And do it on the "new" one too.  Make sure the new ones ebrake lever etc moves properly now.  Its easier off the car to get it to move.

Just over two weeks to go.

Matt, you got your car ready to go?


I might be down to continue to Renfrew and Cowichan... The suspension is hooped anyway so I guess a bit of fun with it might be okay.

All BCDSM members are welcome, whether they're currently in ownership of one or not.

Guess I'd better get mine into a presentable state pretty quick.
