PaulAshman Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 Just come out of hospital and now on crutches and off my feet for 6/8 weeks, wot will I do not being able to drive my mk2!!! Anyway hobbled round shop today to get paper and bloke from up my road stops to talk to me, never has done in the past but maybe took pity me on crutches!!! Anyway he said he used to own a mk2 estate and is sorting out his garage and had loads of boxes of bits, do I want them? Silly question really!!! Anyhow he has just dropped over five boxes of grills, lights, switches, casing for lights, trim, starter motor, wipers etc etc, loads of stuff. And the best bit I said how much do you want and he said "just give me a fiver for a pint". Top bloke and I am happy.

mossy Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 got a 1.3 crossflow and box.... But...the shell is all prepped for a 'im preying' a type9 and pinto so all the wires dont reach and all the clutch/speedo cables need changing. easier to get rid off the crossflow and put a pinto in.. *apologies for thread hijack*
marky4 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 a right result paul what did you have done in hospital hope you get better soon
PaulAshman Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Posted October 30, 2007 I had a bunion removed which got a bit nasty so ended up with all toes broken and three metetarasal bones broken, bunion cut off and then all screwed back together. Once I get a bit more mobile i'll have a look through the stuff and if there is anything going I don not want i'll let you all know. Cheers, Paul.
