lol I like that, What has been seen, cannot be un-seen Well, hopefully, we'll have a few more coming up. Weather's turned cack but should clear again in a few days, so I'll be on it again. Need to get that filler rubbed back. Someone said to me the other day,'When is this going to...

Another update :lol: 'What's this? More than one a year??', I hear you say I know, had a bit more free time lately, about time too. Filled it a couple of days ago and left to harden Had to remove and sand all the overfill from the intricate parts around the door handles, in the creases and...

That's a nice looking Alfa. I like the graphics, they're not too much, and give it it's own identity. I like that. What sort of power is she putting out right now, and are you planning to up it?

I know yeah, sorry, been busy with other stuff for a while, but I've had some spare time recently, and some good weather. I'm gonna try and do some more today, but had to pop into town this morning, and gotta take her indoors out around 5. Might go get cracking now, and carry on after. I...

Rubbed back below level with some 80 grit. Then checked it was all below surface level All looking good so far, but ran out of sunlight. I was fixing a sloppy gearbox on a Mondeo earlier, and had a mot to get done, so been busy. I was quite happy with the filling, so now to skim with...

. . . Probably going to swap the wings for my modded ones, but did them anyway. I rubbed the top of these down with 180 grit as the lacquer was peeling, so needed to get rid of it, hence you can see the primer. I expect these are going on instead though. Just got to...

Hi everyone!! Well here we go with an update, at last!! The filler I've used has certainly stood the test of time and temperature. Here's the pics of where I'd gotten to previously. Door handles Bit of a mess still, but not cracked, or splitting, or coming away from the...

Glad to hear it's sorted, and all down to some faulty wiring, those are the hardest to find I think :confused:

Hi people, The standard HT leads on my car are 6mm, but the ones I'm using to replace are better spec, 8mm ones. Trouble is the cable management. The plastic HT lead carriers are not going to be big enough. Does anyone know of anywhere that makes bigger carriers, or am I going to...

Yeah I do quite like the custom lights, and I do now have the American lids which reach to the top of the bumper, so I could modify those. We'll see how we go :)

I rekon you're dead right. I left it with the guy, with the above mentioned thoughts, and I think he's had it with it. If it was mine I think I'd strip it down and be checking all the seals and so on. It does run on starting fluid, so it can only be the air problem really.

Yeah, if they're too dark, they are dangerous. I think they look nice, but it's a compromise between looks, and visibility. My Probe hasn't any factory tint to speak of, and so will get some aftermarket tint to fit the theme. I do hate seeing badly fitted tint, it looks bloody awful.

Thanks, yeah, I tried bleeding each injector, and each one seemed to be pushing out clean, air free diesel. I just loosened the line a little as you said. When I stop cranking, you see air, frothy diesel coming out along the fuel return line. I just don't get how that could be after...

Things like this --> Click for link --> They're becoming increasing common nowadays. Personally, the only thing I think they'd be good for is SatNav, and hopefully the stereo side of things would be good or at least good enough to add on your own sound system. You might be sat waiting for...

I know, I know, they're a bit on the large side, even for me. I much prefer the system on my project. Always fancied a twin system, just not that big. It's just too loud. :confused: They're new(ish) apparently, they're on the Wolfrace website...
