I'm heading off at the end of this week for a fortnight on holiday.
My plan was to get in touch with definite numbers to suppliers once I have returned, and then once a price is agreed on, and everyone is happy, placing the order, so that it will be delivered before the 8th/9th July to my place, and I can then ferry it up to the workshop.
So as far as I'm concerned - the 14th June is the cutoff date for people wanting headlining material/adhesive kits.
As far as the original colour goes - I haven't had any definite word from anyone who wants OEM colour as possible as to the exact colour they want for this. The 2 original ones that I'm getting, I'd be happy with either the 'Oatmeal', or 'Oyster Grey' (from Martrim) or the 'Suede Beige' or 'Cashmere' from the eBay supplier, as they are all close enough for me.
The original Land Rover colour was called 'Mist' or I've seen it in some places as 'Mist Grey'. Hence why I've mentioned slightly different shades above as examples.
I first posted about colours a couple of months ago now, and still nothing definite - so if I don't have a definite from someone (preferrably Orangebean or Morat - as they've mentioned they want as close as possible to original) by the 14th June, then I will pick a colour that I think looks 'close enough' for my preference for my 2 restoration project P38's (probably Oatmeal from Martrim, or Cashmere from eBay supplier, depending on which is best cost overall - again unless people give me a consensus as to which is the preferred supplier).
Other details:
- Dates are 8th/9th July - at my workshop just outside of Marlborough
- Morat, if you're happy to bring the BBQ, then that sounds good. A Saturday evening group BBQ is a good idea, if everyone is up for that, rather than lunch time, but all gather round on a fabulous RR split tailgate and have a BBQ after a day of getting high on aerosol glue...
- If we can get a count as to who is coming, then it will be useful to have a rough idea!
- If we can also have a list of any other jobs that people are wanting to get done whilst there, aside from headlinings - whether it be general service work, or anything else mechanical
Also, parts wise - if anyone is after any of the reconditioned parts I usually offer on my website, then let me know... namely, door latches, window switchpacks, HEVAC controllers (or screen repair connectors), Black ABS ECU's, EAS compressors etc... then providing I have the required parts in stock, then I will give a 10% discount on normal prices, and where possible/required, will get parts fitted whilst at Summer Camp.
For anyone on the forum who won't be at summer camp, due to distance, other commitments etc, and is after parts I work on, then drop me a message with what you are after, and when I have everything and it's available in my webshop, I'll send you a 10% discount code to use on checkout.
