Don’t even go there 🤣

Haven’t yet seen that one in any shops, had plenty of silver/red ones to chomp at 🤣

Enjoying my collection so far.

someone pass the sick bag! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275779029376?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rDMomu2DRYe&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=oSyz5_rPQeO&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I remember getting a lift in one of those when I was about 13/14 years old. A red one. I kind of liked it…… does that count? the owner of that Nubria went on to join the local Labour Party and ran for Labours seat in Stoke on Trent. Luckily we are conservative. Dodged a bullet there.

Saturday into Sundays intercooler change on a cement mixer

They really do like those horrifically rusty swifts! And Belmonts! Or whatever they call them over there? (Salooned astras.)

I have the red, green and a blue touring car version too!

Probably on training.

The fair is in town 3x 1990 Foden units. Very smart. Don’t worry. I was passenger.

I’ll take the yellow Volvo if it’s not already been claimed!

£9500 for 4 new tyres, a service, track rod ends and an exhaust. Sounds about right for a merc garage!

Rot I can deal with. It’s sourcing parts that’s difficult 😥

Bargain. I’d imagine getting parts for that will be harder than getting parts for the Carlton. Hopefully it won’t end up on a banger track.

Yay! I have fuel again!

Is it like the titanic? Sinks over night?

??

Perfect. fitted. got it down. Flicked the ignition on. Nothing. Needle doesn’t move. Check for resistance, 0.00. Ok, maybe there’s no fuel in it? It’s been running ok? Chucked a gallon in it, now the gauge comes up to the bottom of the empty mark. Dodged a bullet there me thinks!

Good job I don’t have enough room for another project!

Looking forward to fitting this tomorrow and I’ve got this to use, it’s a game changer!!!!

You win a certificate of achievement. But the real high mileage disco award goes to the guy that got over 700k out of his. 3 engines later……

I love these. Friend of mine has a white jag and used to have a white Daimler with the v8 and auto box. We did a wedding with them once upon a time and I got to drive the manual jag. What a lovely machine! Would pilot again.

Today the Carlton visited Vauxhall HQ leek devision.

New sender on its way. £100. Not cheap, but also not expensive. And found by a lad in Liverpool who has 6 months ago cleared an old Vauxhall dealer parts department. im going to look into getting the tank cleaned and rust proofed soon. Anywhere still do that?

I won’t need to pay for your divorce. I have plenty of bullets 🤣🤣
