Thanks guys.

Me? A happy camper?????? A5OPY knows me better than that - I'm never content!!!! 😳 Saw a little 'wet' patch under the car last night, went to investigate and found an oily deposit. A bit of investigation revealed a leaking r/o/s shocker…… more flipping expense!!! Got to get it done cause I'm towing a trailer down to the AGM in 17 days!!!!!  

The ever helpfull Bert says '20 minutes a side' job - yeah right Bert. Thats with a 4 post ramp, all the right tools, expertise and non solid bolts!!!! Me? Thats 4 hours a side, skimmed knuckles, complaints from the neighbours for foul language and rounded off bolts!!! 🙄😳

 I bet that passenger window winder's been fitted so that it's exactly horizontal when the window is closed.

Would you believe that all four line up at 'roughly' the same angle as each other???!!!!  :redfaced:

That is when a mechanic/ hood fitter or any other person who can't operate wind down windows doesn't break the hard to come by brown winder!!!         

Got this fitted today and will be having the electrics done tomorrow hopefully. I'm going for the lead being non permanent so when I'm not towing to a show I can tuck the lead in to the boot and revert to the non tow bar bumper.

Dano your car is looking stunning mate.

Loving the interior.

I hate seeing cars fresh out the bodyshop, makes me want to get mine done NOW!! Lol.

Looking forward to having a good look at it at the AGM.

Thanks.

I was hoping to have it all done and finished but clutches and suspension issue have prevented me from doing the wheels and small bits inside the car.

They'll keep! 😉

towbar looks good!

It performed very well thanks!!! 😎

I was recently looking through my old photos and I came across these from Dubfreeze 2005 !:wink: I didn't know it was yours at the time, nor had I even signed up to this forum! And it never clicked with me that it was yours until now!

Ha! Got a 1st place water cooled that year.  

28 years old TODAY!!!! 😎

Not yet!!!! All in good time… Birthday this month (PayPal accepted if you're really worried that they haven't been done! 😝

Engine considerations still ongoing too. 😉

Protection from the searing British… And soon to be European, heat on my lips!!  Never be without on.

Patent Pending!! 😇

They're off and ready to go.



Im using WRC in Bamber Bridge… http://www.wheelrepair.co.uk/

I've also approached them for a link between us and them for discount. As you'll see from the webste they do carriage for those further away.

surely that's the after shot :wink:
