Started to strip the oil filter housing, not quite what i wanted as the internal fitting sheared, hopefully i can get another otherwise its scrap. http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc451/BradsTiger/27022012958.jpg Had a quiet day after some angle grinder rash, so been doing something with the smal...

Joking aside, they do have different cameras now, they look like the 'this is your speed' ones outside schools in the UK, i thought i'd broken one as it only had two digits so flashed Red 99 at me in the Sprite, it wasn't broken...E60 for a 10 min drive, luckily i was braking for the corner at the t...

It's pretty solid every where, so i guess more lead loading.

Last update for a while gents as i'm away back to work.

close up of the sill damage.

Anyone know what this dribble fest of weld around the oval opening is supposed to be?

The perfect blank canvas :) Not quite, not yet but it will be, the NS front wing is badly out of shape from blasting & distortion from when the repair section was badly welded in. It probably will be a new wing, but i'm going to have another go at bashing it with hammers & dollies again. There are ...
