Graeme,

If we can sort out a Trailer would we be able to bring my Car over to the Barn for a few days to carry out some work?

Also do we still have that diesel Steam Cleaner we used for Dean's car in Leighton? as things need cleaning before stuff gets changed as i'm hoping to have the Oil Leak fixed too.
If not I might hire something as that worked very well.

should be able to squeeze the car in mate, i think deano is cutting the humber up next weekend so we should be able to make the pit safe so we can move vehicles around.

As for the steam cleaner, i should be able to get but not sure if there is a tap local to the barn

Ooh good point... i'd not thought about a water supply!!!

I really wish we had a flat driveway!!! would have solved this as I could sort everything without having to move the car!

It doesn't necessarily need to go all the way to the Barn TBH, it just needs to be in a flat location & not on my neighbours driveway as its starting to take the Piss

The work won't take too long either, just a clean up first, Fuel Lines & Pump, Carb (when it arrives as it was bought last night) & Oil Pressure sender Change

That would be in the barn . . . . unless you wanna crawl around in the mud ?

What I ment was that I could probably do everything apart from the cleaning at the end of the road so long as the neighbours didn't mind and the car could get there, they probably will jmind however... who would be impressed if a couple of guys rolled a car to the front of their house & started messing around with petrol!!!

Could we not just get a team (read small army) to push the Camaro into a more desireable position ?

You saw my driveway... its either a bloody hard push uphill into the garage (which I wouldn't even attempt), or a runaway accident waiting to happen down the road...
My Neighbours drive is flat, but I really don't want to work on their drive again, we marked it last time which isn't good

+ to get the car onto the totally flat bit would be a major headache (armache) on the steering because of where it is now.

It could go straight across but then we'll be in the position of not being able to Jack it up at all as it'll be tilted sideways quite considerably.

Added to that where can you really push a 3rd gen hard without breaking something... its all plastic.

As soon as I posted it, that did dawn on me.

Either way I now have to wait for the Carb to arrive... I doubt that'll get here for the weekend...
