Every day is a school day. Or as they in Yorkshire, "Clog it!", or "keep the clog in!".
CreepingJesus Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Or in Fifer 'fit din lod'. Maybe should be the secret sign of GLF, turning up in gutties. Or sannies if you want to call them that. Come to that, are proper gutties available in adult sizes? *goes to check*

Junkman Posted December 31, 2017 Posted December 31, 2017 It was also the forum's last purchase of the year and thus must go down in history as such. 320touring and purplebargeken 2
320touring Posted January 9, 2018 Author Posted January 9, 2018 A fairly hectic weekend of Morris Oxford working, and a couple of blog posts to show what was done! https://fuguttycars.wordpress.com/2018/01/08/oxford-starts-its-studies/ https://fuguttycars.wordpress.com/2018/01/09/oxford-sits-its-first-exams/

Skut Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 Quote We’d made the replacement in two pieces to avoid vibrations from large single sections of flat sheet. Check out you and your NVH considerations. I like the picture. It looks like the Oxford is getting a last minute reprieve from the light at the end of the tunnel.

plasticvandan Posted January 23, 2018 Posted January 23, 2018 I play that advert in reverse,much more satisfying LC Torana, beko1987, mercrocker and 3 others 6
mercrocker Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 Equally satisfying is taking my Cowley back to the scrapyard I got it from and showing it all the 206s in there. Long live the Traveller! 320touring and LC Torana 2
