Autoshite Recovery, Shiteshifting, Etc.

[KruJoe]

Ready for today's maiden mission.

 

 

 

Coz what we need is MOAR SHITE up in this place.

[tooSavvy]

Main feature to follow?.. this is just a trailer!

a picture like that it can only be for a rover kettle in need of mr. bol.s magic skills

[Pillock]

But that's Swiss Cheese.

 

Have you bought a Rinspeed? 

[Albert Ross]

Is it a Sbarro Challenge?

[KruJoe]

[twosmoke300]

Alfa? Or lancia

[catsinthewelder]

Is it a Beta with pornstar upholstery?

[Richard]

It's the ex-Breadvan Lancia, you can tell by the rusty bit on the leading edge of the bonnet.

[Bucketeer]

That's my favourite bit of the YAJster.

 

 

 

And it seems serendipitous to pea-roast my picture of Richard Vatanen spankin' dat bitch.

 

[KruJoe]

Golly, it looks a minter in that pic Richard!
 

 

Alas no longer. Today's mission was on behalf of Will.

 

 

He'll do his own Lancia thread in due course. It's currently not looking its best.

 

 

It took us 13 hours all in, but the Pleasure Wagon performed faultlessly, happily pulling at 60/65/70 all the way north, temp gauge and coolant level solid as a rock.

 

[Richard]

I hope you're going to have it on the road in time for Shitefest.

[Bucketeer]

I'm very pleased that the Happy Ending Wagon performed without fault but crikey moses the Lancia has changed since last year. Where did you collect it from, Atlantis?

[PiperCub]

Had a 2000 Coop in the mid-nineties, T or V-reg I think, was the same death-blue colour and nearly as rusty but I loved driving it. Good luck with it, not many left now.

[explosive-cabbage]

I hope you're going to have it on the road in time for Shitefest.

 

HAHA!!!

 

Pull the other one!

 

Thread to follow.

[KruJoe]

Aye, the way things look here, the Lancia be lucky to see Shitefest 2016, more likely '17. We'd better save further discussion of it for Will's own thread.

 

 

I put this thread up really to advertise that we're geared up for tat lugging and can help fellow shiters out of (and into) sticky situations.

Not* for hire or reward, but hit me up up if you need a hand

[MarvinsMom]

what on earth is that in the trailer behind the white 205?

[chaseracer]

A significant proportion of the mortal remains of a Leyland Princess...

[KruJoe]

[Guest Breadvan72]

Will is very brave to take on the Betakoop.   The reason it looks so bad is that I had it stripped down at a bodyshop to be repaired, but was then advised that it was too expensive a job, at which point Will bravely agreed to buy the car and take on the challenge.    Good luck, bloke!

[John F]

Bloody hell Will, that'll test your welding skills.

 

GLWTWeldathon.

[Guest Breadvan72]

It's a mahoosive job, but I hope it can be done, as the car is a sweet thing, and very rare (pre facelift 1300).  Will is a hero.

[KruJoe]

The Lancia now has its own thread:
