Better late than never?

As it seems to be the done thing I'll say hi to the good folk out there in AS land, a bit after I started posting tho!

 

In my time I've worked on stuff to get some members drooling a bit, Leyland Nationals and Bristols with the National Bus Co, Land Rovers, Sherpa's, Metro and Maestro vans etc for the Forestry Commission.

 

Vehicle history long and undistinguished, I was going to list but suspect 35-40 ish assorted cars boring to type and boring to to read!

High point Corvette LT1, low point Alfa 156 2.4 JTD.

Current drivers  Polio TDI and Z3 2.8 tho always on the look out for cheapies.

 

I'm a diesel tech by trade so do everything to the cars myself 'cept body stuff.

Welcome aboard, pull up an old Jag seat and throw another tyre in the burning oil-drum.

[Jim Bell]

Melcome Win fella. How far North are you?

[spike60]

Redcar, tho lived in the North Tyne valley for 6 years while working for the Forestry. Whereabouts in the NE are you?

[eddyramrod]

[Jim Bell]

Tynemouth ish. Get down the A19 often enough though.

Hello.

 

Is 'tech' Modernishâ„¢ for mechanic?

 

[spike60]

Is 1976 modernish? That's when I started serving my time, -as a technician! Difference probably badges and college work.

Hello - have you checked out the bus shite thread ??

[spike60]

Yea, that was one of the things that caught my attention. I have no wish to have any more dealings with Leyland Nationals however!
