  1. Looks like a CVH manifold . Nice carbs on a CVH easy to set up and with the usual cam,exhaust etc make a huge difference in performance.
  2. Not been on here in ages but still alive and kicking.
  3. As per title ,Non running mk2 fiesta needs trailering from Watford to Nr Cambridge ,cash paid ,any takers?

  5. Going to the chav show at the pod. Not really my thing but got a free ticket from a mate and i,ll get a lift there.
  6. Learnt to drive in a chrysler avenger and did my test in a mk 3 e scort diesel.
  7. Very nice is that . Are you keeping it that colour when you repaint it ?
  8. holy crap that thing sounds like it revs to about 20000rpm, sounds awesome
  9. Just an observation really but i often listen to music on youtube and whilst listening i sometimes read the comments people have posted.In almost every instance the comments start off ok but then taper off into people slagging each other off over something completly irrelivant to the song Is this the work of just a few keyboard happy morons or are there more of these people than i thought?
  10. Recently i fitted an xr2 arch kit to stop road dirt from spraying up the sides and also i think it looks better.Heres a few pics of how it looks now. I have also reverted back to a 5 spd gearbox with LSD to make longer journeys more bearable and improve fuel consumption . Thanks for looking.
  11. been on roll ups for the last 15 years but stopped altogether just over 3 weeks ago.Even contraband baccy was starting to get pricey.

  13. For 300 POunds tonite As according to the bloke trying to buy it thats all it would make! He came into the garage where the wife works and ask who,s car it was and that he,d like to buy it as he,d owned one like it many years ago. On replying that she owned it and its not for sale he started by offering 200 pounds with a final offer of 300 ponds. I know its no show winner but where the hell do these pricks come from?
  14. The wife plus i,m going through a fleetwood mac phase at the moment.
  15. Had no days off Snow not that bad here but the frozen ground has made my job interesting as being in the exiteing world of root vegetables it has made getting all those pesky carrots and parsnips out of the ground much more entertaining .
  16. Happy birthday Rog.
  17. Looks like you,ve got a few hours to kill then.
  18. I,ve only managed 1 round this year as the house needed a makeover and some cash thrown at it which has left funds a little low but i ,m hoping to make the next one as since i,ve overhauled the top end and raised the cr i,m sure i could knock at least a second off of my Pb as the car really does feel so much quicker than its ever been,much faster and i,d need a G suit to drive it
  19. Last Friday at my place of work we all got a contract of employment to read and sign along with a handbook. My job title is "workshop foreman" which was news to me ! . Mind you i am the only person in the workshop so i suppose that figures.
  20. Happy birthday
  21. both look fine but i think i prefer the after pic without the scoop.
