Progess update.....This weekend I had a visit to GKZ_206 as my car needed a few bits of work done to pass the MOT, also I had the MOT done whilst there. It passed the MOT so very happy about that  .The large gromit (that surrounds the steering shaft) was put back in, thanks Carl. The drive was quite fun especially when you hit ice with a supercharger  Jobs to be done this week, cut the rear tailgate, remove all wires from both door except for the central locking. In 3 weeks time car is going for it paint job , Cherry Red outside with Ford Mercury Grey inside ________________________________________ www.pugsport-racing.co.uk |

Progress update...Last week car finally made its way to my mates bodyshop. The deal was I had to strip the interior and exterior and help him in anyway I could, then he would charge me a cheap price. I removed all the interior except the dash, all side windows. I removed the doors, tailgate, bonnet, front and rear bumpers basically I am left with the bare shell. I then had a go at the rear tailgate glass, I tried to cut with a long sharp blade, then all of a sudden blade when snape and hit me in the face, so I said to my Mrs lets take the tailgate off put it on the floor and smashed it, we removed all the screen bond. We then tackled the front screen with 2 stanleys and we have just the bottom of the screen left to cut away now on Friday. Pictures will be uploaded this friday as I forgot the camera. ________________________________________ www.pugsport-racing.co.uk |

Hope you get some hubcentric spacers... The slip on ones mean that the wheel bolts are supporting the weight of the wheels and whilst it probably wont happen, a wheel coming off is more likely than with hubcentric spacers. Although its probably like saying being outside means its more likely that you'll get hit by a train.If you've said something about it igore me Ive been speed reading. Paint it yellow! |
