THE TERRACOTTA TERROR IS HOME!! see resto room for update!

[antz]

right all!

 

after all my bitching the car is home!!!

 

the car is still covered in dust and general crap so it needs a damn good clean and polish! there is a bit of over spray in a few places which will just t-cut off.

 

the guy maanged to miss a few bits i wanted him to do so im gonna book it back in and tell him i want them done!

 

im not used to all the creaks and noises that wernt there before but i suspect some it to be the polybushes and new suspension settling in.

 

the camber needds setting up as well.

 

anyway its freezing outside and i still havent put my banded steels or new stering wheel on so only managed to get one pic.

 

HERE IT IS:

 

 

WOOP MY BABA IS HOME!

 

next job is get out the cut, vacuum and give it a pamper

[RFChris]

Gad you have it back mate! Get some more pics up my good man! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[antz]

[RFChris]

[arch]

[antz]

check my garage

[ExotronGammaPlusSequencer]

Are the steels you are fitting the ones pictured in your garage? I much prefer them to mk2 RS alloys but they dont look banded, they look like Mex steels to me

[Jimsiss]

looking good, get more pictures now!, don't care how cold it is just get out there and get them

[GWtaylor]

Sweet

[Durham Fiesta]

[MightySprocket]

[Cookie]

they have had the face cut off and welded on the other way

 

i know he shouldnt of left over spray and there are a few bits im not entirely happy with so im gonna take it back to him as soon as i get it clean and figure out whats what and what im not happy with.

 

im just so glad its home!

 

and so low

[Wessie]

doesnt sound like the greatest mechanic

[Durham Fiesta]

as long as they sort out what they aint done right then all will be good

[antz]

doesnt sound like the greatest mechanic

 

he was cheap so i didnt expect a first class job cos i cant afford that!

 

its just filthy i think and needs a good clean. once thats done ill work out the rest

 

and he did say that what i am not happy with i can take it back and hell do it for free

[Wessie]

get it all cleaned and get some pics up

[MightySprocket]

if there are things your not happy with take it back, cheap or not, dont settle for a botch job

[antz]

exactly!!!

 

i do nkow that the first thing to do is give it a good clean! its fooking filthy inside and out so ill get that done.

 

more pics when its clean!

 

and day light

[atomic punk]

was it worth waiting for?

 

how does it handle now? cleaning can wait for tomorrow now go for a blast to test out that s'pension

[antz]

not sure about the handling cos the camber is set up to neutral so no doubt im chewing tyres!

 

steering wheel is upside down and my steering is heavy as fook thanks to the quickrack!

 

will give it a test drive as soon as the camber is sorted!...(or shall i just shred the tyres and go out anyway )

[Chris!]

get shreading those tyres

[young un]

why does neutral camber mean the tyres would be shreaded

 

cheers steve
