Banger Kenny Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 But it can be a bit too much "old skool" fun - trying to take off a Focus door mirror while He operates a crane with a car attached swinging over your head held by chains (and leaking residue petrol at the same time) is the best incentive to hurry up than any Time Saved Bonus Scheme I've ever been on.

Or when it's a LWB tranny on a single chain and he fecks off for his dinner leaving it creaking n swinging over where you are working, had a couple of injuries there, zafira hatch slammed shut on my fingers, very meek shout for help , walked into a random piece of angle iron near scalping myself , needless to say he doesn't have a first aid kit stephen01 and Banger Kenny 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Your life expectancy goes down dramatically when you start work in a scrap yard. If my boss told me to start taking a gearbox out with the car rested on a scissor jack and some bricks I'd tell him to fuck right off.

Guest bangerfan101 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Crab was a full car that hadn't been touched. Think it was a wolsely but not 100% sure. I'm just going by the front grille Ratdat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyHS Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I've been in addymans in Knaresborough this afternoon looking for an idol control valve for my fiesta. Off topic, sorry, but does your fiesta wheeze like a 60-a-day asthmatic when you pull up? Mine was doing that, and I was wondering. It's in Banger-Racing Heaven now so it's just for me to know!

Mr_Bo11ox Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Mrs Crab is always harping on that she would like an old car instead of her 54-plate Fiesta - a Land crab would be the perfect match for her, she could paint a picture of a crab on the bonnet and everything. dugong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bangerfan101 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Crabs still their in addymans. Up on the racks looking almost complete, less it's wheels.

The brakes won't go onto the 1200 struts so you'd want the complete struts with the bottom arms to swap onto a 1200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bangerfan101 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 No idea on the interia. I quickly liberated an expansion bottle for swmbo mk6 fiesta on my dinner break then hot footed it for a swift pint of Sam Smiths before returning to work.
