;):D



if only i'd come on here first,


changing my rear prop dounut for the 2nd time in a year and a nut was spinning inside the bloody trans brake!! so i slipped it off the f**ked dounut and slipped the prop off the UJ so i could angle-grind the nut off, well changed the dounut (mmm i'm hungry now) and do i slip that bit back in, banged it in couldn't move it, so i tried to remove it, couldn't, so i tied it to the back of the disco and the front of my brother vitara and drove away , i'll look for the arrows now i know about them!!

Made a steering guard for the p38 today from some 8mm steel I had lying around, not really sure why, just bored and because I could! And it'll protect its soft dangly bits, and it looks good, I'm well chuffed with it I'll maybe even go to the effort of getting a photo on here, might make some diff guards from the same stuff tomorrow if my enthusiasm holds out! I haven't seen another p38 with a steering guard? I heard they're available but dead expensive, so I made my own! That'll knock a few mpg off! Its heavy!
 
took mine to the repair shop today - insurance company said I had to - they wont let me do it, now I'm ****ting meself as I've never heard of a D1 being repaired after and accident they always seem to get written off, mind you I might make a few quid on a buy back:)
 
took out all the carpets yesterday as i got them very wet on sunday, chucked them in the incinerator and went to buy some rubber matting from machine mart today, got the q-rust out, found loads of leaks, gonna sort them before i hammerite the floor then when its dry fit the matting, that way the next time i get it full of water i can take out the matting and wipe it out with a cloth and it won't rot the floor.
job sorted:D
 
drove mine around picking up parts to repair ****box (my lightweight) and gave it a jetwash on the way back :)
