Default Too bored waiting for my ankle to recover - what about this?





Do you think I could get Chris to rebody a 911 into a ratted Skoda with flared arches and '80s body kit?

Here is the Barry Boys take on the Skoda. I am thinking box extensions to the wheel arches with the Kellogs logo still showing through the paint etc...

Given the Skoda is bigger in most dimensions and I am not looking for accuracy i think it could work.

Freak the fuck out of the Singer guys :-)

Saw the consultant and he said the operation was a success and I should be out of the cast and off the crutches by June.

Wouldn't it have been easier to use a couple of jubilee clips and an exhaust clamp?

There is a selection of sizes - I guess the surgeon bought a mixed bag of Ti self tappers.

1x80mm
1x50mm
2x40mm
2x30mm

I think he just chucked in what ever came to hand to be honest. Drive in lots of screws from all directions and hopefully a few should hold.
