WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

Changed gearbox and transferbox oils, engine oil and filter, airfilter, lower ball joint and greased up props. Washed and polished because I was ordered to :axe:

Got a shiny new bit to put on .................

BERNIE

The beasty lives :lol:

Wings

That car spent more time airborne I wouldnt be surprised if the tyres never wear :lol:

did it ever drive home from wales under its own steam or has it always been on a yellow truck :dance:

I hates Wales :lol:

or is it just lazy

Well did nothing to my car but I helped the guy next door for his search for a car, went over the water to Birkenhead to look at a fiesta, we walk up the drive, Steve ( guy next door) opened the fiesta door, I straight away spotted the spot welding down the A pillar rear wing under the paint and it was slightly mis shaped and a spot of rust near the bottom wher it was matched wrong, I compared it to the other side, asked they guy if it had, had a shunt, he pointed to the rear to what I thought was the only good wing, checked that and it was botched, I peeled back the boot carpet and it was creased in two places and filled in another :shock:

.

Needless to say I told him to walk and didnt even start the engine, they guy admitted it was a CAT C as we where walking away, but there is no way that has had a VIC check it was a death trap, Im sure if I looked further I would have found more horrors.

It took me 20 seconds from the door opening to decide it was not going home with us, just hope some poor sod doesnt get ripped off.

you will have watch this space to see what we have planned for snow white

I washed mine today...
And T-cutted it...
And waxed it...
And put some of that spray stuff on the dashboard so the dash is all shiny again...
And Rain X'ed all the windows...
And lowered the towball so the trailer doesnt drag its bum on the ground...
And replaced the 12v multi socket with a new one as the old one was bust...
And vacuumed it good and proper...

Will be cleaning out the glovebox as well. Its amazing how much crap gets thrown in there.

gonna take all the wheels off tomorrow and give them a proper going over with some wheel cleaner to finish it off, possibly with some tyre blacking and if im feeling up to it Il spray the spare steel sating black so it at least looks neat and tidy.

Phil, dont do any more or you wont go off road in it again.

I for one fitted the Snork today and wimped out of the de cat looking at gearbox crossmember that needs to come off (will save for post Balla) I did weld a bit of pipe in place of the busted flexi hose.

well today the dirty diesel had its first mod, extended shackels (the same as the ones in the for sale section, :wink:

)photos to follow :dance:

Wish I still had a leafer Dave, I would buy 'em just to keep you quiet :lol:
