flyingbrick Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 the T32 has the side grip of the S22 nut a nicer center for straight roads and more mileage it's a good sport touring tire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cletus Posted January 15, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2023 Good good good. Much betterer at corners, feels more accurate,no longer have to do mid corner adjustments. Painted some bits black,fucked them up, got a new gun and some new paint minus the lumps, painted them again, acceptable. A quick whiz in the drill on a rag with autosol, on some of the stainless bolts makes them look better. There's more silver bits to paint but I'll do that later  20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cletus Posted January 29, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 29, 2023 Was just minding my business and this follwed me home from @RX FORD's workshop I have no need for it but when has that ever stopped anyone? 660cc of twin cam carburetted 3 cylinder,transferring all its fury through an auto gearbox. It actually goes better than id expected it would,and despite being comically small,it has plenty of interior room even for a generously proportioned gentleman such as myself im not sure what ill do with it but ill tidy a few things up,get a wof and maybe some slam/wheels. My daughter has claimed it already, shes 11 so a way off needing a car but i found a big empty carpark and she had a driving lesson 38 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 My old work had a manual one of those Mira. It went hard for what it was. (May have been injected) Be perfect for a turbo or supercharger swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muncie Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Chop it drop it and big block swap it. A big block in a Mira would be 1NZFE. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I've got one of these coming in for work tomorrow. Can't remember the engine size but it's a manual and super fun on twisty roads. When ya shut the doors it feels like the glass might fall out. So tinny. So fun. Such a great sound! Good purchase! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cletus Posted April 29, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2023 Next project 1975 lilliput caravan. Was my grandparents, they did a lot of touring around the country in it. Its been sitting for a while now. I thought it would be pretty bad but its not, it doesnt appear to have any leaks My plan was to cut off the rusty coupling and chuck a new one on, the drawbar is toast though which i was going to replace anyway Stripped a bit of stuff off so i can measure up what i need to get it mobile,then i can get it onto the hoist at work to give the undersides a bit of a tidy up I think ill just get it useable and worry about paint later 32 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustHarry Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 That c channel steel is a cunt of a 70s idea. Very flexible too. You'll find it tows much nice with a drawbar made of rhs My car trailer was made of it back in the day . However not much left of it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
