I frequently do Warsaw to Northern england and back again (around 2000km each way if you the direct route), done it in the disco and my day car, the day car is faster and more comfortable, i prefer doing it in the disco, slower pace makes for a much more relaxing drive, you arent afraid to stop...

perkins 4203? I had one in a s3 88 , slow chugger of a thing but would pull a house down with the low end torque, dont expect much more than 50mph out of it though wthout an overdrive. parts are cheap enough and its a good solid engine, bit noisy and dont rev high but with the torque you dont...

you going to be looking at the 35-45 ppm mark, get a cheapo gas kit on it and it drops to more like 20 ppm, just a simple one will do for a play thing.

How much do you want it there and for how long? It could work out to be financially viable to get a small crane in for an hour, the old iron fairy type are cheap enough to hire for a couple of hours. Don't dismiss the idea until you have at least given a couple of local companies a call and...

You are about spot on with your knowledge, I've had plenty now and will continue to have more. Big, rusty, expensive and addictive. Dead good fun though and comfy and easy to fix and lovely and frustrating and infuriating and not gay. I'd say get it, and the one you are looking at makes a...

You start by helping out with jobs you have done yourself on your own landy, things you know about. Sometimes people comment on things they don't know about and it misleads folk, sadly this sometimes makes things worse. As you yourself said some members are absolute geniuses and have an...

That's a dog guard you plonker, not a roof rack. But overall it looks like you may have got off very lightly. I hope you don't find too much more, good luck to you.
