get the caliper off and check the slide pins are sliding and you can wind the piston back in easily. rule that out first as knackered caliper tends to be the issue 90% of the time
0062 rotted away so I killed it unfortunately and 0199 I was using as a daily (high miler, no minter) and it was just getting long in the tooth so sold her on. ended up at Mat Browns unfortunately, so destined to die as well :(
I know she was mate, I was there, lol! back in the day we all used to have a right giggle, was a good scene but the cars died off and we all grew up so times moved on.
more than likely me chap, I think I'm pretty much the only regular RB around matlock, get loads passing through 'cuz holidaz innit' but just me on the commute!
on the flipside your incognito motor didn't crop up on my cardar at all :(
he's had an engine issue, put an unknown in there and its knocking its tits off so he's got to sort that. apart from that I think its mostly done
ai he bought a gearbox off me years back when I lived in Stocksbridge and now randomly I live up the road, lol!

ai Rob, his 106 is properly specced, he's been building it for 7 years or so, started life as a blue 1.1 iirc
he used to be into his Mk1 Clio's as well and often pops up for a nosy to see what I'm up to with the fleet!
I've literally just got it on the road matey, bought it last October and its sat in a lockup miles away all winter so this is my first week out. as such no idea on power, lol! its a totally stock F4R, 55k engine with a dodgy induction cone on it and a modified single box mongoose mk1 exhaust on...
ai it should be a good dice up, not seen that much variety in mk1's on track before so it'll be interesting to see how the specs differ and perform
they aren't that light chap tbh, my turbo one was 960 with half a tank in it. that was caged, poly windows and stripped.
hoping this one will be...
rofl, @Martin. you hurt the big mans feelings ;)
@Chip-mk1 there's around 20 of us at Bedford 19th May (a Monday) least 12 mark 1's I believe so should be a giggle.
Nice selection of them too, couple of F4R powered, couple of cup cars, couple with ITB, Adi's VAG 20vT one with turreted rear...
if you scratch hard enough, it is still blue ;)
@George182 @ThomasBrentnall - no gaying up in my beast..............ahem ;) more than welcome for a spin out though both of you....one at a time.
Right
finished the bulk of the work I wanted to get done this weekend, so I'm going to stick my neck out and say its done (no project ever is and even typing now there is 'tinkering' I have planned)
however, its ready for track is the point! and in full marmite spec @TheEvilGiraffe
and...
