Flamed and named, thought Ratarsed covered a few angles ;D More paint tomorrow......... oh joy Yeah yeah, i know i said i was skint, but i just couldn't resist buying these.......... As i'm thick, can someone tell me what size tyres i need?? The rims are 18x8 where can i get red banded tyres?? Here's a sneak of the paint, my mate's done a great job considering he only picked up an airbrush two weeks back.... Might not be a Renoir, but i couldn't live with the stock paint, and it looks well funky when you get a full view of the car

The devil makes work for idle hands,,,, i know i'm supposed to be resting, but it's been gnawing at me, Pushed it into the drive with the Dodge so i could get it back in the air ,,, cos i can't kneel down, i had to lay under the bumper and feed the jack under the cross-member,,, as i pulled the jack under, the jack handle hit the bumper and tipped,,, guess where the jack handle landed?? Right accross me fu**ing knee....... i got an attack of the old Tourettes.. Anyway, gearbox sump back off, and Jono's taken it home to re-tap it.......... Oh, and if Jono says he caught me wearing pink slippers, take no notice, i think he's had a long day at work Yeah, bring it over, it'll go straight on the ramp....... Just

Got water in the drivers footwell, carpet soaked, doorcard not looking so good either... Friggin quarterlight seal is about as tight as a prison lifers back door. Big boots, big coat, stickoflex and a fanheater See the extension from the house? It's got the fanheater on the end of it and that's just to warm the car before i get in to fix the window Minus 10 here

Been at the lathe again today, this time sorting the knock offs for the "Big un", been and bought some threaded gas pipe this morning, cut it, turned it, and welded 20mm sections to the fabbed bosses i'd already been at... I'd got some fake (screw on)3 eared spinners off e-bay and really wound em onto the 20mm of welded thread, grub screwed em, and tomorrow they're going for powder coating [a href=" "] [/a] [a href=" "] [/a] [a href=" "] [/a]
