What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Bought it.

 

Goes like the clappers

Earlier, at the Truckers Rest on the A5...

I've just changed the oil and filter on my Seat. For the first time I've not had to worry about spilling oil on the drive. That's because there are two patches of oil soaked concrete there now, caused by Mrs BMH's beloved C3.

Should be re-titled "Secret Shitekeeper"

Finally replaced the knackered Ripspeed head unit in the BX... the grin was for the fuse that has been protecting* the unit all the time it's been in the car.

 

[Guest Hooli]

What power unit is it? I'm sure I've seen 15amp as standard in some that claim to be 4x50w.

[strangeangel]

25W iirc.

[Guest Hooli]

Touch of overkill then.

[Wack]

It is.

Oh right

[dave21478]

Aye, that was a good one.

Roadkill has been getting a little stale for me for a while, but the dude from Hotrod Garage livens them right up when he is on the show.

Had me a braw day doing successful workings on cars today.

 

Got more to do tomorrow:)

What makes me grin? Dollywobbler's Invacar resurrection. It's got the lot.

Finally saw this out in the wild today, it normally lives under a cover. Old Giffer was driving it like a stabbed rat 

 

Daft pictures gone wonky, it's a 2.0 injection S Sierra on a C plate

Been on Cavcraft’s works do again. Say what you like about the lad, but what a back-to-front he really is.

[Ghosty]

I used to lust after one of these, few folk seem to know they existed. From memory it was pretty much XR4x4 trim spec but with a 2 litre Pinto. 

[fordperv]

I do like the iS spec mk1 sierra

[Guest Hooli]

Yeah I remember them being cool & less common than most other versions. Ran on 14" pepperpots like the giha didn't they?

[fordperv]

Yeah they had pepperpots as standard, they have to be pretty rare now, those lucky bleeders in Europe got them in a 3 door in mk1 and mk2 guise

[Guest Hooli]

I blame the EU...

Just flew back from Italy this morning and was delighted* to see this Autoshite style repair to a bit of the plane. If anyone needs a mondeo bumper done, I can give you the name of the airline....
