Ahh, the penny drops, now I recognise your sig pic firehawk66, good to see ya on here!! :corn:
I'm on there as 01TAWS666, yes, good site for contacts and local info etc...
2002TAWS6Pontiac, I see you have a Cobra, I'm sure the MOT testers on POC UK will turn their blind eye to any problems for your MOT ;)
Edit: I think I recognise USAF LS1 from POC UK too!!

Yeah, pretty much. I talked to VPC here in Brandon and said there are cars coming every weekend and mine will probably be over there in two weeks.:gruffy::drive: I dropped off my car 26th of June and I'm getting it probably 2nd week of Aug.
I've been here almost a month now and it flies by. You will end up renting a car here for the time being til you get your car back.

Checking in.
Been in East Anglia for 2.5 years now. Deployed at the moment, but will be back next month. If any of you F-body guys see (or hear ;)) a LeMans Blue C6 loafing around, I don't bite. Feel free to flag me down to bullshit. I'm never really in a hurry to get anywhere. :D
