Mr_Bo11ox Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 That 306 has delivered an invaluable life lesson in shiting already I reckon. Don't hope for too much and you won't be disappointed! And don't be afraid to send a hopeless case over the 'rainbow bridge',

Floatylight Posted June 10, 2020 Author Posted June 10, 2020 Been at the 306 with the angle grinder this afternoon, decision made - take it to the bridge! If anyone wants it for the engine and other bits shout up now...Sent from my SM-A505FN using Tapatalk BL Bloke, theshadow and Tickman 2 1

Split_Pin Posted June 10, 2020 Posted June 10, 2020 Jeezo, that's some horrific rot. I knew they were meant to rust there but I couldn't even work out what I was looking at on first study. Wise move with removemycar I reckon. Floatylight 1

paulplom Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 What makes them rot there. It seems very strange in the middle of the panel.

Give it a month or so before stopping, the tins in the shops now will be OK unless there is another fucked 306 they are made out of ?
sdkrc Posted June 11, 2020 Posted June 11, 2020 Really enjoyed this thread, just read from start to finish. Gutted about the 306 because it looked so damned good. Young FL needs to Barry up that Fiesta big_al_granvia, rainagain, Floatylight and 1 other 2 2

RoadworkUK Posted June 13, 2020 Posted June 13, 2020 Only just caught this thread; splendid timing, as ever. I don't suppose there's any chance whatsoever that you might have removed the gear knob before the 306 took a magic flatbed to the afterlife? The gearknob of my wife's 306 (exactly the same age) literally fell apart and she had been knobless, as it were, for several months until I bought a (awful) generic item from Amazon t'other week. If it had an actual 306 one again it would be like the good old days.

When we went to look at it a couple of weeks ago the gearknob was fine, as soon as Smollest FL attempted some gear changes on the drive it literally disintegrated... Only bits I've got in the garage are the parcel shelf and some 13" trims..Sent from my SM-A505FN using Tapatalk RoadworkUK 1
