Frightening, my parents both smoked when I was growing up, I did try one at 15 but turned green, never smoked in my life since, I've never had any problems with my lungs etc but wonder what their like inside, I'm 65 now.
My friends bmw 330 ,dealer said needed pads and discs, £525, I checked for him, weren't even half worn and no lip on discs which were fine. It's no wonder main dealers are so hated when all they do is rip innocent people off.
I'm same as you this year, did loads last year on the gt6 but never touched it this year, housework,ferrying kids and god knows what else. Hey ho, into year 12 ha
I agree Colin, Happy days 40 years ago, £20 in my pocket and go around all the yards. Happiest weekend for me once I was rebuilding a p6 rover, got 4 doors, interior seats , back bumper and alternator all for £50.
Heres ours unfortunately old shandy top right past away a month ago, she was 16 1/2. All very different characters, Mr archie 12 absolute gentleman, little coco the black one very cute and clever, the other is angus the bastard, say no more. 🤣
my mazda mx5 mk1 california , yellow, and mazda state the primer has to be white or the yellow colour will not be correct. Again on my wife's modern juke (yellow) the manufacturers put so little paint on i swear i could see the primer reflection underneath and we had the car from new. Always thought that car needed another coat. Sold it on now.
Welcome, interested already and you haven't posted a pic yet. Plenty help and advice on here. Looking forward to the pics.
The fibreglass bonnet on my gt6 was tight to the bulkhead at the windscreen end, but 3/4 inches gap to doors. So the one I had didn't seem great. I've a steel one now
Hi, the honing removes nothing so standard rings, do check though that your engine hasn't been rebored before you got it. Then you would need to change size for size, but honing only cleans up the bores.crankshaft bearings are a separate thing entirely.
fantastic work wim, like nick says harder with pressure of it being a daily driver, so the fox drives in to 2021, brilliant, well done man.
happy new year.
i looked into this ages ago, cant now remember full details, but you need to fit the early back plate too for the manual adjusters,and some of those parts are unobtainable now.
Put a ladder up the wall, then from your 4 post lift ,bridge another ladder or plank of wood across to the ladder on the wall. Hold the roof on your head and walk across bridge. Simple 🤔😂
You can see here the slots Colin's on about. But I don't think too useful for wax oil. Better would be to drill holes in the top of the sill under the door bottom to put waxoil then put grommets in
