  1. Dunno if anyone answered you about realigning your diff..... There's a bolt right through the centre of the spring to hold the leaves together. The head of that bolt locates into a hole on the axle bracket. You can just see it under the clamping plate in your broken leaf picture Hey-presto, diff aligned. *edit* Top Of The Tips
  2. Probably the best looking 56 I've ever seen If you took the hubcaps off it would, without a doubt, be the best looking 56 I've ever seen. That's all I've got.
  3. And a Viking ship. Also West coast mirrors, Cragars & lots of crushed velvet. There's a good chap.
  4. These...... (How much ?!) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hotrod-Chevy-Corvett-Vintage-Thrush-Side-Pipe-Exhaust-Ford-Pickup-Ratrod-Dragcar-/182563113425?hash=item2a819c09d1:g:~qcAAOSwhvFZDgoF
  5. You never forget how to fall off a skateboard.
  6. @bathcollector Might need pics of you catching some gnarly air off those ramps / showing the young'uns how it's done.
  7. Top end... http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C792509 These...... http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/list/40/sd1/ Are they expensive for over there ? Some don't seem too bad value but I remember when a good one was 500 quid (blah, blah, don't know you're born, etc....)
  8. Nice motor. My first boss had a 1980 V8 5-speed (in 1984). Rough looking sleeper with a cam, Holley, heads, dual pipes etc gave 285 HP. Had a bit of suspension work but his fave mod was welding some angle along the watts linkage, made a big difference. I'd love one but they're all rotted out here.
  9. This is just silly. I took my original posts down coz the general consensus seemed to be it was a waste of time/against the law. There was no sandy vag going on, I thought that would be it locked and done with but it is now dieseling away... You want pics and tales or not ? p.s. Mrs Shuzz had a Morris 1000 Traveller for a while. It was bloody awful.
  10. As a daily. Are you drunk ? Actually I'd love one, but I haven't got time to work on my Skyline let alone a Pigs butt Laurel. All my dailies are broken, they are taking my time. I should start a thread.
  11. Nobody mostly. Which is why nobody has to. Especially you.
  12. Some c*unt who can't read ! *feel free to lock*
  13. In the cold light of day this is obviously an epic fail. I am now using some common sense. Raizer, It'll all get fixed later and it'll be fine. That is the end of my Fred.
  14. But just read this.... "This is a new section of oldschool where you guys can show off your non-oldschool cars/bikes, give details of any modification progress, share pictures etc." So confused Is a 25 yr old Sportrak 'oldschool' ? It's got a K&N....
  15. Just read this....... "however, we don't really need to see every members boring daily so use some common sense please guys!" Shortest thread on OSNZ. Soz, etc. Back to spam !
  16. I was a bad bad Shuzz and didn't read the instructions. All gone now
  17. Your peekups motor, she eez tree feefty ?
  18. ^this indicator stuff what Bling said. I had a Marina that would die if you flashed the headlights, accompanied by smoke from the steering column shroud. Filthy dust and grease shorting it all out. You'd think having a Marina would be punishment enough *edit* Could be earths too...
  19. Now you're talking. Did I mention fake oil cooler with over-sized pipes ?
  20. I have a psycho-spatial condition that means I cant detect sarcasm. My ultimate Hakosuka dream....
  21. I thank you for your misplaced faith.
  22. Yoinks, didn't think for a moment it would be only me that liked it. I like all the 'wrong' treatments below more than the stock set up. Of course there is no way I can return it to stock now you've told me I should. Maybe some MK 1 Cortina lights would look good.....
