Hey mate, I am leaving my towbar exactly where it is. Some people have told me to get rid... but like DB once told me.... its the only protection my fuel tank has got! Lets face it the damn car is no good to me with £70 worth of fuel running down the lane in front of it!

Jamie,
It took us ages but its a propper job. The main thing is to identify why water is getting in usuallysun roof leaking and the top corner windows leaking. once the water leak is cured then its time to start welding. Have you checked the rear body mounts. These can be very rusty and somtimes collapse. I do remember trying to make up some stronger rear body xmembers x3 and I ended up driving up to paddocks on a Sat morning in my new to me Vaux nova hammering it all the way to buy 3 new ones as they were only £6 each or somthing silly. We then made them stronger and re painted them and refitted. The Highlift was used alot for holding the rear body up while we were making metal good. Would suggest you go and buy a few decent drill bits made for spot welds it made the job so much faster. Jai

It seems that my alloy wheels on the disco have been experiencing a few problem with the wheel nuts. A couple of them have expanded and wont come off. Well they probably will with a hammer and a slightly oversized socket. Bloody typical, going to be working on those tomorrow when I get back from LRE!

OK Lady Luck has deserted me.
Kai and I are going to have to miss out on this weekend. Unfortunately a client who was supposed to transfer some money into my account has failed to do so. This has left me a few hundred quid lighter than expected... (fuel money!), Rent has to take precedence so sorry ''n' all that but we're going to be restricted to a whaddon visit on sunday.
Good luck to all of you and don't break anything (too badly)
