The handbrake? lol silly buggers.

Lol that is crazy, let it wear down,i suppose that it would be ok after a while, but come on at least put a a drop of wd-40 on it pmsl hahaha

Thats just not acceptable, surely after a test drive it would be obvious that something wasnt right.

Yeah you are right, but looks like it will have to wait till i find a new job :(

Tell me about it lol, they still...well used to have cabaret shows during service so was a little distracting for me too :D half naked girls , actually sometimes fully naked girls just outside my door.... Excuse me mister chef person can i have a spoon for my tea please :eek:

After a good polish ;)

happy girthday squirt

how in gods name did it get up there ;)

you dont need heat resistant paint on the cover, its also not as glossy as 2 pac. But it might be handy to have a petrol resistant paint just in case it comes in contact with fuel while replacing a fuel filter. But then again its not hard to remove the cover temporarily.

5k a week ;)

You know whats really wierd, i started this thread on 5000 posts maybe its a sign :D

excellent choice of wheels there.... Im sure ive seen those wheels before..... hmmmmm strange.

Thanks guys, sure il find something soon enough.

My work closes this Thursday :( has been in receivership for the last year or so, no one wants to buy the place too expensive (soho) used to be the old Raymond revue bar a lot of history in the place. I heard the bad news about an hour ago. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO no more zed parts for a while now. may have to cancel my Zrun trip to Amsterdam:( Ah well wish me luck, been on the search for jobs luckily there are loads of chef jobs available.

wet and dry between paint and lacquer. Use 2 pac paint ;)

corners/braking/acceleration saves petrol too

actually your fibre glass bits should save quite a bit of weight.
