    My back is getting sore thinking about it Tony.
  9. Blaster also was credited to the naming of "knicker brook" at Oulton Park. Tony.
  10. Now that guy could tell a story... My favourite was "The "U" boat in the cut" Brilliant. I have a lot of his stuff on vynyl. Tony.
  11. I will second your method Roger, a nice ball pien hammer being better than a lump hammer. Tony.
  12. Hi Adrian, very nice looking car. Here's hoping for an end to lockdown and a nice summer Tony.
  13. If you could get it out, i guess it hadn't bottomed out. Probably rubbish steel, i would swap all for the old ones. Tony.
  14. It should be ok providing it's not touching anything, as it wont move at all. Tony.
  15. Can you not move it further down? Tony.
  16. I notice alloy wheel studs Roger, make sure they haven't bottomed out? That might explain it. You can use the old ones Roger. Tony.
  17. You should be able change it on the car Roger, they are only splined into the hub. Knock the remaining bit in with a drift and pull the new one through using new nut with spacing washers. Tony.
  18. The dreaded oil drum, i had forgotten about that. As early teens four of were doing the same one bonfire night when said oil drum rolled onto the remains of a very large bonfire. We tried to get it off with sticks ect, When we herd "dong" and dent popped out.... One of us shouted run so we did. Next minute massive explosion which knocked us all flat and we saw the 45gln drum heading skywards at an angle. We were up and running within seconds and a few minutes later increased our pace as we heard sirens......We were scared stiff for a couple of weeks, but despite looking at the local papers we never found out where the drum had landed or if it had damaged anything. We never went near an oil drum again god knows what had been in it as it was empty when we found it. Tony.
  19. How about other mischief like "knock and run" having first tied the milk bottles to the door knocker Tony.
  20. The powdery overspray will cut back easily with G3 Peter. Tony.
  21. I was telling mrs P about what me and my mates got up to as kids, and up to her reading this thread..... She never believed me She say's we should all be in prison or hospital What was it that made us do it years ago..... Tony.
  22. Don't Use masking tape at all Peter unless against a rubber. Rub the whole area down beyond the scratch with 600 w/dry then spray. Let the paint go hard for a couple of days the use Farecla G3 with a polisher and you will find it will blend in perfectly. Try on the inside of the boot lid and you will see. Tony.
