We have stainless.

Our lass made him chop it off. It was a sad day.

I think that might need a bit more than some scaffolding pipe!

Did about 30 miles in it yesterday. Parked it up and went out to check on the oil leak status….. Good news, just a couple of drops which I can probably live with. Got it up on ramps so gonna have a look and see what my cheapest and loudest exhaust options will be.

Make it lower. Make it louder.

To be fair, it doesn’t seem that bad. I think it was exaggerated when I bought the car as it had been pissing it down. It’s certainly not enough to stop me using it anyways.

I purchased the Exxon Valdez.

I don’t know about it but that’s a great spelling of lacquer. It made me think of drinking in a wine bar.

Standard project car. Do the shiny bits rather than bits that need doing!

That’s sick.

I wasn’t paying that but it was still serious.

I haven’t bought it, it was close but I think I’m gonna pussy out. Apparently the smoke is paint burning off the manifold. I absolutely love foxbody mustangs but as bash says, I think that this might be a step to far. Here’s the eBay advert - just in case anyone else wants to jump on it...

Biggest waste of money going on a clio.

Possible financial ruin incoming.

Yeah, it was the fact when I asked him if it would get me the 80 miles home his reply was ‘erm, no sure’. Plus he tried to blame the oil leak on a Cherokee that was on the drive, despite there been a Hansel and gretel trail where we’d just been on the test drive. I’ve bid him in the balls...

Went to view this tonight. It was cheap but had a pretty severe oil leak so my arse fell out.

New owners not messing about.

Guy who bought it is gonna use it for bike deliveries. That’s an expensive delivery!

Short lived and expensive. This thread should be locked.

Yeah, I loved driving it. Pretty gutted but if you buy and sell enough you’re gonna get bummed at some point.

It’s got a PCV system on it so same thing. That’s what I thought originally but the compression test results told a different story.

Yeah, someone had to and unfortunately I was the one left standing when the music stopped. Guy I bought it off still maintains it was fine when he had it and I’ve killed it in the 40 or so miles I’ve driven.

Sold.

I wanted to try a can of petrol and a match:

Until the next one anyway!

8.5k. Still strong money I know but working ones are selling for 11k to 12k.

I’m sticking to Volvos.

So my American car experience may be coming to an end. The engine is breathing heavily, I have tried to change as much as I can but think it’s probably worn piston rings which I cannot unfortunately afford to fix. So, I’ve pulled my pants down, lubed up and put it up for sale for £3k less than...
