Had a reasonable turnout - including 4 potential new members Image

Got the handbrake sorted on John’s FB

Had to go and jump start Drews EK van at the local Auto One - bloody EK’s ImageImageImageImageImageImage

It had a leaky front seal on the timing cover so we sorted that out and gave the front springs a desperately needed haircut

Changed out the distributor on Craigs EK to a HEI setup - the immobiliser was playing silly buggers and we had a couple of dramas getting it sorted
