stevie

Cheers. She aint a bad one by any means. A small scuff to the edge of a rear door and a small spot under both headlamps. As usual the top corners of both wings are suffering under the bonnet but luckily its not showing on the wingtops yet. Ill get those plated rather than get new wings, they arent anywhere near bad enough to throw away just yet. Otherwise its a fairly tidy old bus. The only problem i have that i want sorted asap is the grinding noise from the rear end at any speed. Its either the halfshaft bearings or the rear wheel bearings. I did suspect the diff but they dont usually grind do they??? I thought they just whined at speed. (Bit like the missus hahahaha)

Second that.

Absolutely superb

Try right clicking on the image, choose "open with" on the sub menu, then choose the windows image viewer. It may help. Good luck with it.

In that case i go to bed a happy man

Its a bugger to type....

Ill be first in it.... Its like that shoe i was talking about last night. The one laying on the motorway....wheres the other one????

The only one i have. No im not naked it was a hot day

So youre sying its a gangster/magician conspiracy issue?

I oten find myself wondering about things that shouldnt bother me. Before you think im some kind of weirdo...well...errr...suppose i am actually . Seriously though, am i the only one who looks at things from another perspective? I was watching some film or another and a guy had a bag put over his head, bundled into a limo, beaten up, then kicked out of the car. I turned to my missus and said..."where do you reckon they get those nice cloth bags from?Are they made specially at some gangster haberdashery?" They are always a black velvet bag that fits perfectly over the victims head. Ive never seen em in shops, have you? Think i need to leave this vodka alone....

Painting a car in dog turd....now theres a conservation tactic Barcoat isnt nice stuff as you say, and as you know whats on there from bare metal youre at an advantage straight away. I look forward to seeing pics of it re-done. I hate it when you put time/money/effort into keeping a car in good condition and some evil little basket comes along and wrecks it in two seconds flat. Its only happened to me once and i went absolutely ballistic.

Im still 50/50 on them. I would love some Ghia alloys but i cant find any fairly local. I did think about spraying the "stars" satin black but i think that might ruin them. Ill have to do the photoshop routine i think

I quite like some alloys on Mk5's but i think they are a duifficult car to get wheels right on. Its a shame to change them cos the tyres are all very good and id have to buy more if i change the rim size. Ill keep a lookout on fleabay and see what comes up.

Paint reactions are always a problem on older cars, you just never know whats lurking under there. A good layer of bar coat is going on my Tina before i do the base and clear. Hopefully that will sort the problem out.

Yeah im really not sure about them. Sometimes i think they are ok, then i tell myself steels would look better. They are 14" with 185/60's.

Im not getting into chocolate jokes just now...too late in the day Well, ive had a great laugh on here with you guys and girls. I wish you all a good night and ill catch up with you all tomorrow. Keep an eye on him Mrs L, he's a bad influence on young naieve people like me....

Christ i remember that!!!!! Absolute class.

Watch she doesnt cough em all over you mate, revenge would literally be sweet

eewwww

Yeah you better apologise, you got me into trouble...*runs away*

HAHAHAHA and you licked em.... Think Mrs Leadfoot is gonna give us a right slap at a show

poor guy arrived at his destination naked at that rate

You lot are sooooooooo wrong !! Youngy started it....*shufles feet*.... Your old enough to know better !! Im a man!!!! Ill never grow up...My missus reckons she has 4 kids and im the oldest.

HAHAHA Im sure you will bud, be good to meet some like minded people
