Ghosty Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Bought a new desk as mine collapsed today. Measured all the loadspaces on the fleet and the Civic Sedan was the candidate for going to Ikea. If I hadn't bought the sedan, I couldn't have done this l, as the R8 400 was never offered with a folding rear seat. It's one of the reasons I bought the Sedan. I love it dearly, it's my forever car for sure. It drives like it's new. Fumbler, Minimad5, Coprolalia and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulgalour Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 It thunderstormed yesterday, the last little brass doodad I needed for the regulator is installed, a test run completed proving it welds nicely and I'm just waiting for my new mask to charge. Here's hoping I can make decent progress on the Maestro before the weather gets too scorchio today. I'm pretty certain this welder originally came from @Ratdat who kindly provided it when I was skint and needed a welder. I then did the same favour for someone else who likewise passed it around until eventually it came back to me just as I was looking to buy another welder. It's been in the wars and hasn't always been stored in a manner conducive to keeping a welder happy and it has just shrugged it all off. Maybe one day it'll get a new torch handle thingy. Maybe one day it'll get a new grab handle on the front. Maybe one day I'll clean it.

vulgalour Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 No more structural socks! Not my finest welding, I'll admit. What matters is there's no rust and it's nice and solid, another pass with the flapwheel when the grinder has recharged, and a smear of seam sealer, will see this up to a perfectly decent standard for what this car is. Not sure if I'll get the arch lip done as well today, I'm still figuring out the best way to use what I've got for that job. Still, it's progress and that's what matters. 320touring, Dyslexic Viking, Tickman and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulgalour Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Not perfect, but perfectly good enough. A couple of small pieces to finish, the grinding, sealing, and painting to finish it all off. A very big job that would have been easier if I could have got the proper repair panels for this side instead of making do with front wings.

155V6 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Puma has just failed it's Mot. Why is this a grin? Because all it failed on was a leaking shock & one headlamp aim too low. They couldn't adjust the headlamp,as the adjuster wouldn't move,but they'll have more time to look at it when it goes in on Monday for 2 new shocks. myglaren, Remspoor and mk2_craig 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somewhatfoolish Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Criminal waste of skin; there's a lot of it about, although the budding Moriartys generally don't advertise their criminality on ZuckerBook as blatantly as that. I'd suggest crimestoppers but these days they'd probably ignore it. Banger Kenny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a win for me 🥳 Unless you are over 70, then BE goes to 2,600kg and you lose some other categories, such as D1, & C1, and others, whenever you passed your test. I passed in 1969. To get them back, you must have an expensive medical. Look for more DVLA trailer changes coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myglaren Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 The street sweeper machine came round at 7 a.m. this morning. Now there is a man with a leaf blower blowing all the leaves from the footpaths, parking spaces and grassed areas onto the road. And the street sweeper back to slurp up all the leaves. Great co-ordination. Floatylight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
