big_al_granvia replied to big_al_granvia's topic in AutoShite
long overdue fleet update, so in no particular order fozzy, running well but mot due, needs coil packs, front brakes saab, drinking fuel but good to drive, still scabby as fuck volvo, has mot but no 2nd gear, have to use geartronic and put into 3rd newbie paddy the corolla, fuck we bought a car that works, needs a stereo and good polish bus, in storage, have all bits to rebuild suspension and a new rad, almera, full of caravan bits, think a young shiter wants it, will get running and see whatswhat focus, full of bits, if immobiliser is fucked then its razor blades or if any shiter wants it then take it away leggy, tame mechanic has removed shagged engine, might be progressing merc, sold to yesoui of the parish civic, sold to local dealer, has been mot'd -

Is the motor you left at Killie still okay

fuck aye, that is fun, proper sorted wee rally car, welded to the road, not lacking in power, handles really firm and tight, can push it hard and it is pretty neutral.... aye that'll dae me

caravan kitchen removed (cheers @Floatylight ) so i could get the seat back, it seems to have shrunk over the last 25 years lol, mum had the earlier style and it was a hoot, or perhaps i am older and fatter.... sounds great, car is just me, simple controls as that was what i hated in the merc... my plan of action, good polish, fit a radio, the thinking rally giant style spots and possibly a rev counter... but aye she is nice
