    Not even sure what that is, or what trans you have, C6, FMX? Just as long as it's suitable...

    I found quite a few bits in my C4, new filter and fluid and all good. Put a cast alloy pan on it with a drain plug. Are you using the Type F Ford fluid? I had to go to a speed shop to find it...

    Not really rough as needs must etc, but this setup got a 2 tonne rally car thru several stages, at damn near 200kmh. I just liked the vise grip/cable tie combo...
  4. Lord Gruntfuttock
    I could fill this post with pics of my welds...

    Cool bike, I like how the carb slide looks bigger then the piston...
  6. Lord Gruntfuttock
    They are a pretty car...
  7. Lord Gruntfuttock
    This looks like something a Falcon rally car would be shit at. But entertaining...
  8. Lord Gruntfuttock
    No prob
  9. Lord Gruntfuttock
    Oh invers... I've been at the pub. But yeah

    Where? When? Drivable? Embarrassing?

    THEY DON'T DO THAT IN AMERICAN 'RESTORATION' SHOWS M8... (usually crank em over with decades old fuel, get it 'running' and a spray bomb recondition if they're feeling fancy...)

    Luckily you can wind tunnel test an imp inside a toilet roll tube with a hair dryer...

    Can use coloured heat shrink to help blend in if correct wire colour not available...
  14. Lord Gruntfuttock
    Supercheap have these ones, quite unobtrusive compared to the blade type...
  15. Lord Gruntfuttock
    Never knew these were a thing. yuk. I'd put an inline fuse in. A little ugliness is better than a car fire...
  16. Lord Gruntfuttock
    Yep, check cable operation/condition, adjust and oil, should be all good...

    Oh boy. Sturmey Archer chat. There's heaps online about how different generations of them have different characteristics. Some of the earlier ones would find 'neutral' and disengage while pedaling leading to ball damage (rider not hub)...

    Is the metro basically a twenny with bigger wheels?

    With my boring sensible hat on, aren't spray booths supposed to have explosion proof fittings to avoid sparks igniting fumes...? You're prob fine if just drying parts in there tho...

    Some big screws straightened things up a bit. Waterblasted the sheepshit and slaters off the old palings and it came together ok. Rough but sturdy, and at the back of the house so nobody will see it...

    Got a bit of waste ground by the back door that's only good for weeds, so just banged up a woodshed that'll save a trip to the big one. All scrap timber from an old fence so only cost me some screws and a bag of cement... Got the piles perfectly level then discovered the 100 x 100s were warped AF...

    1/24th scale hornets/nest in engine bay pls. They always seem to find em in American shows...

    ^ Those weird cutouts are for soldering gear, but normal tools quite easy, just cut to depth req'd and peel out shapes...
  24. Lord Gruntfuttock
    @h4nd's Weller soldering iron post reminded me I've been sorting tools lately. Bought a stack of tool foam from Temu, got half it as freebies, satisfying work. Just need a pen, ruler and scalpel...

    How does one encourage their offspring into such things pray tell...?
