Dave.Wilson Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Hi All, Just to let you all know that my dear old Bluey will probably not be making any shows in 2015. I could not ignore the rust, rot, dents and scratches any longer, so she is having a year off so that I can strip her down, cut, weld, repair, repaint, refit and then get back on the show scene looking wonderful. I will still be at some of the shows, either in my 5 door Escort or tagging along with friends in their cars, but sadly will not be on the Cabriolet stand at all this year... but don't panic, I will come and say hello to you all when at a show. This is my first restoration project, and I have no idea what I am doing... so wish me luck... I'm going to need it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave.Wilson Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 Thanks guys. Will upload photos when the restoration starts, but going to tidy up my Ghia first, so I've got an Escort to get to Classic Ford in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tee Morrison Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Good luck with this Dave, I can't wait to see the progress. But you know, the deeper you go into it the more and more jobs you want to do don't you! Mine was only supposed to be a quick freshen up.

Guest Jay-L Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Good luck with the resto! Look forward to meeting some of you guys at the shows over summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave.Wilson Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 I am afraid of that Tee, I don't want it to turn into a never-ending project and never see the road again... I've got to get it all sorted as soon as the cash allows. Jay-L, Thanks mate, If you're new to the club, make sure you book yourself in to some of the shows, especially Classic Ford, it's a must attend, keep an eye on this page for the ticket details I will still be at some of the shows and will come over and say hi to the stand... might even ask Avril if she'll make me one of her famous cuppa's lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
