Discuss here about Yoeddynz's little Imp project...

[yoeddynz]

And lots of cats. 

[Westernstar]

Eh just keep ‘er around for the potting mix run

[Ranter]

I've seen warmed over Imp motors twist the axle like that. Looking forward to this build, I have a number of parts, it looks like you have that sorted but yell out if you need anything.

[63Ragtop]

Ah rear engined cars! what a silly/awesome idea.

can't wait to see what you two do with this wee gem!

Any sport axles? monte carlo springs? 

[dmulally]

I take it you know Frank (Bodgy) from Queensland? 

I threw out so many parts including the thicker axles when I left oz. My R1 Imp used datsun half shafts as the rubber donuts were not up to it. 

Always wanted an A12 Imp with a VW box. Such a great little car.

warning, warning !

do not, and i repeat DO FUCKEN NOT ring him, FrankenBarry will  want every minor detail and factoid about the car including the breed of spider living in the headlight bucket. he will then argue that it's a different breed of spider living there !!

[yoeddynz]

That spider is not, I repeat, not the original spider that the car came with when it left the factory. I don't like non  original spiders. I think you'll find that the would have got more miles per gallon if you'd left the original spider intact. 

[smokin'joe]

so Alex, you have spoken with Frank then ?

 

[yoeddynz]

Never heard of him.

Na mostly engine bits and pieces, switches, lenses etc.

Do not buy windows rubbers from aussie. They're rubbish.

[igor]

I have plenty of those big brown hairy spiders with darker patches on their backs. Can bring some to Nats for you if you're interested.

[yoeddynz]

We've got enough big freaky Funnel web spiders here thanks.

Just bring beer.

Well mate, im not here to get intimate with your spiders

[avengertiger]

frank shroenborger or something like that? bruce has bought some exhausts off him.

[yoeddynz]

I now really want to phone this frank guy and wind him up...

But he could be a really nice fella. 

[flyingbrick]

This is oldschool.. tell someone not to troll someone else and THE FLOOD GATES OPEN.

Whats his ph number?

 

Reminds me of my first ever job- night shift at a pak'n save. There was a young barry there (probably 30's) who was the shift manager and had just discovered video games. I could literally go the whole night without working by trolling him with questions about movies and games.

 

WOW COOL WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

[ajg193]

Mate. You've got a serious Imp problem. I think you ought to check yourself into a mental facility before you have the nation's entire stock of imp shells.

[Ranter]

I can't see an issue if I'm honest.

They're like that these cars, first one needed a engine rebuild, no dramas done. Next up pops a good parts car in Nelson, we'll take that only to find its way too good for that so get that back on the road, next up a one owner gem that needs rebuilt, oh we'll grab that too.........

 

[yoeddynz]

Yeah- I can see more arriving on the horizon.  Just in case eh....
