  1. And you were odds on favourite in a police chase unlike today?, I used to do a head gasket on the old pushrods and 20 pintos easily in under an hour in the garden with a few spanner’s and a shitty socket set ?
  2. An AVO logbook means it was made in fords advanced vehicle operations plant and not just another Dagenham dustbin, all early rs and Mexico’s should have a special logbook to show this otherwise it’s just another 2 door ford made to look like one and not worth a fraction of a real one, it’s also running a 2 litre pinto and it should have a 16 pushrod motor in it, originality in classics is were the money is, matching numbers low miles and service history is what you want ?
  3. There is no mention of an AVO logbook with it which is all important, there are loads of Snyd, ones around the avo logbooks still get sold for a couple of grand with no vehicle for this reason, I sold my last mk2 for £400 a purple 16 sport with black pinstripes how gutted am I now ???
  4. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-west-wales-11861005 One for Walshie here ? just had this pop up in my mail, then I noticed the date ????
  5. Still got a Saab 900 aero locked away in the garage, payed £800 for it years ago as a well kept motor with a full Saab service history, been sat in my garage wrapped in duvets for years probably 4/5k if I sold it now but another 10 year and you can probably stick an O on the end of that, 30/40 years old is when the value goes mental ?
  6. That’s the standard survival shelter that I find on my travels ?
  7. That bear gryls got some answering to do I find things like this all over the place usually a lot less substantial than that one,
  8. Think you want to be looking at a starship and 12mm leads mate, easy to make have done a few myself from old crutch,s ?
  9. I,m actually turning black so I can be a majority again, ? also thinking of swapping the kids for a black one a brown one and a yellow one and launching a career in advertising
  10. And there’s a perfect example of believing everything you are told and talking down your own people in favour of others ?
  11. A very good read especially as they came from just up the road from me and some of the estates and places mentioned in it I’m still walking today, well worth a read and for anyone in Gloucestershire the added local interests as mentioned
  12. Oh yes, getting some good consistency going now ?
  13. Now you no how David ike feels everyday of his life ?
  14. Same mate along with multiple reply’s, signing me out and crashing every 2 minutes, kanny s discord is growing more appealing by the week so sort it out or at least let us no wtf is happening
  15. Well as this lockdown drags on, I’ve decided to make myself a bit of better catch box so I can really get some practice in without showering the garden and neighbourhood with ball bearings, 5 gallon container with the side cut out a bit of foam in the back and some layers of tarp over that with a bicycle spoke shaved to a point at one end and threaded through one side, through some milk bottle tops and a cider can and back out the other side, 10min build with junk from my yard and I haven’t lost a single ball this morning, ???
  16. Think he will be bought out within a few years mate, it’s growing big quick, he was talking a five year plan when I first went out there but it’s been valued in the millions in under 2 years, early retirement sounds nice but it’s letting go of your baby that’s tough as you probably no mate ??
  17. Was out there a while back and he had an old vw splittie camper that was hitting 0-60s in under 3seconds ?
  18. Most of these so called new laws are not actually laws they are simply guidelines that the police and public are meant to follow, you don’t even have to answer there questions if you are going about your legal business and have not broken any laws, a few examples of overzealous policing and everyone thinks we are in communist Russia, just go about your normal business and nothing will happen to you you don’t need a note to travel anywhere and you don’t need to explain anything if you are stopped ?
  19. Some time ago I stuck some pics up of an electric skyline that a lad I know had built, over the last year or so his company has grown on and is now worth considerable shilling, I’ve been back out and done some more work on extending the unit and building more offices and toilets etc, so for anyone with an interest in all this stuff he’s now got a channel up and running, here is the car that started it off and episode one of his channel ?
  20. Don’t be sorry mate as I don’t have a link, my daughter told me, she’s a bit of a space geek and living on a boat she has very little light pollution, I expect someone will pop a link up in a bit ??
