Mally Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I've just chucked* a V8 block away. As an aside, alloy blocks were banned in Brisca F1 racing many years ago. A well known driver just painted his block black and raced on for a year or two. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyG Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Caught an episode of Minder yesterday morning as had the day off work. Was one of the best episodes I've seen in a very long time. The storyline was a property developer trying to scare a bomb site car dealer (not Arthur) off his lot, and there was a side story about a deal including a hearse and two limousines. The highlights were so many, I'll just do a list of the best:June Whitfield played a randy widow undertaker who possibly seduced Arthur and was eyeing up Chisholm by the end of the episode - her pick-up line was 'you're the splitting image of my late husband'The bomb site car dealer's name was Wally WestWally's stock included a Sherpa pick-up and a dodgy looking series 1 Jag as the 'car of the week'The phrase 'there's a drink in it for both of us' was used by Wally about the hearse deal (selling low from a retired undertaker and high to June Whitfield)The two Daimler DS420 limousines were referred to as 'widow wagons'Jimmy Nail played a fair-minded gypsy driving an early 60s Jensen CV8Ray Winstone (running a crappy bodyshop) bodged a Datsun Bluebird so badly a customer complained about grass growing in the wing Chisholm drove a doom blue SolaraIts definitely worth catching on the ITV hub, episode was called 'Car Lot Baggers' I think.

Cavcraft Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Some sort of Peter Stringfellow wannabe looking old boy in a new type Mustang convertible pulled up next to me in my Transit this morning at the lights. I wellied it off the line and he had to go much quicker than he must have planned to get past me. Obvs. like he destroyed me and his car sounded ace, but for a fleeting moment it was very funny to me. GrumpiusMaximus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumbler Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Whereas here, in the cold, I made a condnsing coil and managed to make some heavy oil which boiled and then caught alight and some flammable liquid.

Fumbler Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Are you saying you’ve made your own cat cracker, for homebrew petrol?In a nutshell, yes. No catalyst yes but it's mainly based of what Jem Whatshisname did in Bang Goes the Theory. Yielded the same results although the fuel yield was probably 1% of what he got. That's mainly down to the sealing problems I've had because I'm not using a sealed cannister and relying on the pressure of the condenser to hold down an oversized lid on an undersized vessel. Still, the Weekend is young so I'll do a bit more trial and improvement this evening and then do many a research. privatewire, Exiled_Tat_Gatherer and Skizzer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Equalizer Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Caught an episode of Minder...Snap. Absolutely in love with it at the moment and I'd highly recommend that all Shiters give it a whirl. I've been recording it on the Tivo box from series 1 and sneaking in as many episodes as I can. It's full of cracking cars and most episodes are spot on and it even makes London seem worth living in (well it was the early 80s and you might gave had a fighting chance of buying a house).

beko1987 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Took my stepsister home just now as dads too tired "want to take my car?" No thanks dad, I gave the gooner a little cuddle as I got in! Then promptly nearly shook the gearbox off the engine as I forgot it wasn't an auto...
