Holy moly
The late nights has started with everything that needs to be organised for the Logo day and I enjoy every moment of it as I know it is going to be a great success

I am trying to work on a sponsor to give beautiful shirts away to the first 50 cars through the gates

i heard of a fiesta that also had box problems but it was the owners who did not notice on the driveway it had a very slight oil leak with the result when servicing
was done on regular intervals the gear oil was never checked and cauzed the box to run dry

all checks were in place and now mention of a lack of oil. ford still has not responded in any except giving us a bill of r13000. we manged to have it fixed for r7500 by the guy who does it for ford. i still think its too much. apparently the site helo pete has a very long list for ford complaints and exremely bad service. my sister has reported them to the ombitman (spellcheck)

Howdy all
So it seems that the late nights has started with all the organizing to do for the LOGO DAY

It is going to be a Big success as I have had it that I wanted to give someone a Logo day flyer then they say Thanks man We already know of the day
There are a few Guys that is also going to burn the midnight oil trying to finish their rides in time to ride them to the logo day

I myself is getting ant in the pants
it is amaizing how much dedication and effort it takes to get everything properly organized before hand but we dont mind as it is for a good Cauze and we love the Aircooleds
