Funny as fook ! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Jeez a guy across the road from me has a genuine RS2000 with the Ford X pack box arches , was a barn find in Ireland it,s was last on the road about 20 years ago , in black , needs a little tidying but he,s got it MOT,d !!! Trouble is he,tries to restore old classics and ruins them cos his bodyworking skills are crap :crying::crying: It,s a shame cos he,ll probably kill the value of it :headvswal:headvswal

Nah nowt as fancy as that , it,s just a two way toggle switch :crying:

Just wanted to say thanks to Mantav8 for his help with this little gadget :thumbup1: Cheers bud .

Actually he probably is ! lol , you win :blushing:

Yeah Ian , keep calling me and i,ll get my dad on to you :tt2::tt2::tt2:

You know we,re all big kids at heart Ian !! lol :yes:

Bugger , the cars done but i can,t tax it till the first of july :headvswal:headvswal:headvswal I,ll see if Daz wants a run down .

We made it bud , i just think a huge number plate spoils the look so when i,m at a meet or show , not on the road of course:whistling::wink: i can fold it out of the way :yes: Used a rear wiper motor of a small car , chopped it around , made a mechanism , added a couple of micro switches to limit the movement and fitted a two way toggle switch in the car , here,s a mock up we did .

Now you see it ... Click piccy

Sshhh we can,t let the secret out yet , all in good time my eager one ! :tt2:

Nice one bud , it,ll be well worth all the hard work in the end :thumbup::thumbup:

Although it is legal to drive to the MOT station without car tax i must admit i still went a very very long way round :innocent: lol

It,s been the first time i,ve driven it properly for nearly 14 months a by fook did it feel good :dance::dance: Pulls like a train and that,s set up on standard boost ! , gonna be fitting a Zedworld chipped ecu and wind the boost up :whistling: let the fun begin :devil2::devil2: LOL The only trouble now is i,ve got to wait for the first of next month to get it taxed , that,s 12 bl00dy days :crying:, I CAN,T COPE HELPPPP.

^^^^^^^ That,s good , i,ve got basically the same cover with Graham Sykes with mods for £300 with no N/C as it,s used on my daily driver.

Jeeez that,s got to be the patchyist paint job ever !!!!

Been busy then ! lol I like the surround , don,t like the centre panel though :biggrin::biggrin:

As the bottom hinge has probably worn worse than the top all this does is put the door back to where it originally was , don,t forget you,ll be looking at the door gap when it,s closed after it,s been lifted onto the catch so the gap looks ok but as you open it it drops , it,s that drop that this sorts .HTH

That looks the *****x Graham :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

The way i did it a few years ago was to slip a washer between the lower door hinge and the door , remove one bolt , you,ll notice it has shoulders on the bolt , make sure the hole in the washers you,ll be using is big enough for this to go through , loosen the other lower bolt , put your knee under the door and lift it enough for a gap to open up and slip the washer in , put the first bolt back in loose and repeat on the other bolt , now tighten them up . The thickness of one washer is usually enough to lift your door enough but if the hinges are really worn you might have to double up , only takes ten minutes and is alot easier than trying to move the upper hinge forward on the A post as it,s a real pain to get to the bolts . HTH Sorry pics aren,t very good

PMSL , He must have looked like he,d gone 10 rounds with Tyson in the morning !!!

Not for mine bud , took it in midday saturday and picked it up on the monday , they didn,t have the correct fitting for the opposite end to the pump so they actually used the end few inches of the original pipe and joined it to a new length of hose and then re-used the metal pipe that connects it to the pump , it,s been on a few years now with no probs :thumbup::thumbup:

I,ve never seen that one knocking around , looks quite nice !

If it,s the high pressure hose , i had one made up but using the original ends at PIRTEK they have branches all over , even mobile vans/workshop to do work on site , cost me £45 .HTH http://www.pirtek.co.uk/
