Back along I visited a family to buy some cars from a collection that a young lad had. He'd been crushed to death under a poorly supported vehicle.

Think about the contact patch. Probably a finger tip each side and due to the flat axle stand top it wouldn't take much to have that fall off on you if you venture underneath and while pulling yourself out the car moves without you realising.Back along I visited a family to buy some cars from a collection that a young lad had.

I know this feeling all too well The look on my face must have been a picture after me and pugjim rebuilt my engine from the ground up because he very quickly reassured me it was just the tappets and they would quiet down once they had filled with oil again Good work mate glad to hear the good news! ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

Well it's been a hell of a while since I've posted on here. Combination of uploading photos and forum being a tad dead. So time to get back in to the swing of things.________________________________________ Ph2 Black GTI 6!EX black 6 owner But now a Black caged rallye owner Hunting for Go faster bits!
