Make the pipes up off the car. I use a vice on the fitting and leave the pipe in hot water for 5+ minutes.

Aye no worries. If you need anything doing on any of them mate just say.

FLOL. They are high power silver under there somewhere!

Ill take one of your cars away and get the bits done that's needed whilst Lesley's doing the cup ;)

Right. Here's the before's... The cup: The Monaco:

A cat rubbed up against it the other day and lost its fur from how gritty it is down the side.

Ah epic :) ill chat to you on Sunday if not before anyway :)

I do remember him pointing and laughing at my Monaco when he saw it...

If she saw my Monaco I'm sure she'd keel over and I'm not fit enough to run away from chip!

I have 2 cars in need of a detail... First one, is my cup, just needs a clay and a good polish really. next one... is the monaco. This is where the challenge is. Its been run with Carbone lorraines, so the wheels have gone rusty, there is brake dust literally everywhere, its gone through...

Where do you get the .63 housing from? the HX35 is fooking huge. I have one bolted to my 20vt, but its on the 12cm housing, I'd like to get a .63 housing to be able to get the spool time down being a 1.8

I assume you know the Correct procedure to doing the belt?

last one to get oil?

How did you manage to trash the bottom ball joint?!

My battery is wanked. a few weeks ago it dropped from 25% to 2% in a matter of minutes.

That's the correct one.

There actually isn't a time limit, it's just a case of fit for purpose and last a reasonable amount of time! I.e, you'd just bought it for £25. And then it broke down, what can you expect? You paid £25 for a running car. However if you paid going rate for it, you expect it to last for a...

Even if he is a small dealer.

Sooo, a quick write up really. Thursday afternoon at about 430pm it was announced to me that the gf had sold her car and it was going saturday. This then threw in the thought of "s**t. She needs the Monaco, and the cup is still in need of being built." 5pm: Cup wheeled in, rebuild in anger...

No signs generally.

If I have a spare ill chuck it in the envelope before I send it tomorrow(been a mental week sorry!!!)

I'd be changing all of the pulleys.
