omegod Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 Long way to come for a window I'd have happily got it for you , it might even have fitted down my pants. Not a bad place to spend a few hours is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omegod Posted March 29, 2016 Author Share Posted March 29, 2016 I came across another haul today but didn't have a camera to hand, E28 BMW and 4 old mercedes one with a very 80's zender bodykit and bigass Ronal alloys Banger Kenny and oldcars 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Bo11ox Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Long way to come for a window You're not kidding. 55 miles each way according to Google maps - its taken me SIX BASTARD HOURS to do a return trip due to every fukin bit of road being at a total standstill, despite taking all sorts of convoluted diversions to avoid the predictably log-jammed M6. Removing the window took less than a minute! RayMK, Dick Longbridge, Vin and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethj Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 That's still less bother than getting one posted from mainland Europe and wondering if the courier will play juggling or footie with it. I'd call that a win. Christine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Today's spottage at the scrapyard. Being a tight arse, I was buying some wipers and a relay. Didn't get a picture but there was an old metro VDP and the rustiest XJS I've ever seen. Anyways it's Deatons at Staveley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bangerfan101 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I'm not proud of some of the things I did in my youth. You live and learn. These days I won't even have a pint if I'm driving. Loosin my license would be like loosing a leg. Banger Kenny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadworkUK Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 A BMW with a cvh engine in fwd flavour?Do you mean the 5-Door CVH equipped Escort Estate or the 2-door E30 BMW that isn't an Escort or an Orion?

Guest bangerfan101 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I can't tell. Photos giving me neck ache looking at it. Was the cvh I noticed first. Didn't click there was 2 cars after 4 artoris last night. Want both of them now tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierraman Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 It was a 1.6 CVH IIRC. Body was actually really solid in most places, it had been nicked that's why it was there. It had some old school Escort hubcaps in there as well. Be a good source for cutting out some sections if your car is rotten. Mk2 golf Auto in there too.

sierraman Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 They were the type with the plain centre, with small slats around the circumference, I'd say 13 inch diameter. I'll have a pike next time I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
