Help Wanted
« on: April 16, 2010, 09:42:16 »
Not sure if this is in the right section or not so please feel free to move it to the correct one!

Ok I need help (don't we all) no seriously I do need some help.

I have a 1985 110 that i want to get sorted out for an MOT but if I am honest I am no mechanic (handy with spanners and not frightened to get my hands dirty, knuckles blooded etc....)

I wondered if there may be one or two chaps/chapesses who might be willing to come and give me a hand and a few pointers in getting the 110 up and ready for his MOT!

It's a big ask I know but I also know how much fun it is to be tinkering with these motors.

Payment would be meagre but if you don't mind a day or so of happy banter, bacon butties and tea or coffee till it comes out your ears then all the better.

If you can weld and have a welder I'd love to learn how to use one!

So in short:-

Need help
Willing to do most the work myself with a bit of help/guidance

Anybody got some time!

Thanks in advance

Rover51 aka Simon
