Christmas Came Early!!

Post by max.karisma »

While others frantically shop for christmas I was looking to get my syncro on the road for the first time And YES it was achieved, I drove my syncro on its new 15" mefros and GFB's today (plus many other bits, my sink has now seen better days)
I never thought I would be into black rubber, but hey it floated my boat today Thanx to all that said BFG's were the ones! And hey not even off roaded yet
Big thanx to Brickwerks who got my waterpipe to me this week (next day delivery) Spot On
I can now go to Llangollen 27th Dec! Any other syncros interested check out the Abbey campsite at Llangollen on 2wd forum, camping section, over 40 units were down to go (before the snow, hey)
Wishing all my friends in Syncronaunts a syncro-tastic christmas I've had a great year with you, THANX

I might pop over to Llangollen for a couple of days if some green laning is on the cards. Just godda fit a new exhaust this afternoon (10 minute job on a diesel and only £60 new ), and a new stereo compliments of Al, to get the van tip top again after my van dwelling couple of weeks down in Brighton.

Hi Max, glad to hear the Syncro is now on the road. I recollect last time I saw it, it was a fairly stock 'velle, is it now camperised ? Please don't say you're kipping in the awning at Llangollen !

Well done, nothing more satisfying that saying "I fixed that"

My target date keeps moving back. It was end of November, then the Snow came 1st December (Maybe that was a sign!!)
It now needs to be done by the end of Jan 2011 So far im on target!!
