Bet it flew on!

Nice one Dave. Glad that you had a good time!

That single comment has saved our video recorder from the bin once again! The Ayatollah is not amused. She wants Dirty Dancing on DVD but I'm not budging! Vusky caused more interest than the stuff we were selling Amazing that classic cars can create more interest than bargain priced Ann Summers samp...

Nice photos Martin. Is Mrs Pubcrawler happy to be known as such? Just for future reference

Does anybody know what the Surfer Dude has done with Noddy?

Gotto to be red innit?

Don`t tell anyone, but I once had all the seals turn themselves inside out on the front of an Imp once, coming down a very steep hill from Brighton. Went straight through a busy crossroads without hitting anything. Lost all the fluid. Still no idea what caused that. I sorted it all at the side of t...

A car so clean it makes the virgin snow look dirty. Money well spent Dave!

I just read this lot and if I was a psychiatrist, I would think I had just seen my first case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder by Proxy. :shock: Jeff could have Imp sleeper cells all over the UK, activated by a simple whispered word in a phonecall. Leading to people washing cars in the snow naked, p...

Wahey, same colour as mine. Claret Metallic-ish. First one I've ever seen

Looks really smart Martin, eagerly waiting to see those sidewinders

In the style of Louis Walsh....

"Noddy, I really loike what you've done there. You made it your own and I think your approach is fresh, exciting and relevant for today."

Thanks to everyone who posted.

, for the kind words and the work.

We do our very best to provide a decent service making the little things that no-one else would bother making, because as we all know, the devil is in the detail....

Proud suppliers of absolute nothing to Classic Car Rescue

Must have been the way I wrote camber

Well, enthused by the National and deciding to deal with my inclination to be negative head on, I saw Noddy's post and decided I would give it a go. Got to work and soon had the Chamois in bits. Sadly I hadn't got some of the parts I needed, so as my hands were dirty, Sandra said she'd drop into the...

Nice job Noddy. Even Mrs Doubtfire would be chuffed!

Wow, when you look at something like that, you realise why it hurts so much when you come off and the importance of knowing when to let go!

We too had a great time. I might have had the smallest co-driver, but Millie was great on reading the directions. Don't tell her that I just followed the yellow car in front though

Many thanks to Dave & Lynda, really enjoyed ourselves!

Glad that you're under way. That colour is growing on me too!

Had it put up at Xmas and just midway through decorating. Presently looking for some Castrol scatter cushions!

Glad that you decided against it and stayed indoors. The sunshine here this morning makes it a bit aggravating! We did think about you, as it was howling here and rained solid all day. I felt that guilty, I still woke up at 7 to see if there was a chance the forecast was wrong. The rain blasting aga...

Personally, I'm a big fan of the curly blonde bob....

Tell you what, I can see that plate coming off. If it wasn't a Brummie plate, I'd skim it now. Even the old boy up the road was giving me a tug the other day...

Many thanks for all the positive feedback. It's not perfect, but it's nice and brings a smile now... I got the trims with the car, but I had no idea where they went and neither did the body man. It was only when Noddy enlightened me after it was sprayed that I understood. I'll probably take them off...

Hello Drew... The wife would have me eliminated. I might get eliminated for even answering the question

Nearly there.... Respray, new carpets, painted the seatframes, new seatbelts (cheers Noddy!), wood relaquered, replaced carbs and exhaust, , electronic distributor, detailed and cleaned the engine, rewrapped the loom, just a few bits left to do.... If anybody has some really nice bumpers and a rear ...

They just fit about an inch back from the pivot point of the quarter light. Just don't go mad with the tightening of the grub screws and the little plastic gasket. I never use the quarter lights, so not being able to use them is fine for me... Sorry I haven't sent you a photo, I haven't been down th...

That looks the business, cancel the respray!

I was way out of my depth on a pair of recon Strombergs. Ready to pitch them and buy a Weber. Car was immobile and it was looking bleak to say the least... The I rang a chap I saw advertising on eBay in Lichield. Came out for £30 plus £35 an hour (we're a 40 mile round trip from Lichfield!) on a Sat...

Hello Basil, Many thanks! The original colour was Claret Metallic 126. However the body man pointed out that in fact it wasn't correct as it had pearlescent paint on. They matched it to a Renault Colour, so that's what it got resprayed with, Funny thing is, when I first had it I ordered a touch-up w...

Thanks for all the nice comments and encouragement folks. Much appreciated. More than makes up for when I re-arranged the luggage space to get a few breakdown bit in before the National, shut the bonnet and couldn't get it open again. :oops: :twisted: Cally you're welcome anytime, just drop us a lin...

Many thanks for looking from the US :) They are 12" D1's. Not a lot of tyre choice at 12" and suspect I should have gone for 13" to gain a better selection of tyres. I'll try and do some interior shots this weekend. Let me know what areas you're particularly interested in and I'll make sure I cover ...

That's set me thinking. I've seen a big air intake somewhere in my mate's garage. I think I may relieve him of that!

Cheers Charlotte. If you want his number let me know....

Hello Baz,

Thanks for that. I think so. I've heard the name mentioned previously....

Cheers Drew, I'd appreciate that...

Hello Mark,

Small world. They probably heard us go past about 1pm. I made it all the way up in 3rd. Last time I tried with the old dizzy, it was 2nd then 3rd, then back to 2nd all the way up. I was delighted!

Whereabouts are you?

Cheers Drew! To be fair, it doesn't look that different from National Day, just all the same colour now

It's a Chamois 1968 saloon. I need a black seat base with the pleats running forward....

Noddy has asked me a few times to post some photos and as the weather was so good today, we took the day off. Drove up through Hagley, round through Kinver, up to Bridgnorth, stopped for a coffee. Then on to Cleobury Mortimer, up onto the Clee Hills for a couple of photos and a sandwich, down to Ten...

You can't help thinking that the bloke that designed the stickers, thought "12 boxes, that'll look about right..." laid it all out and after he had filled 10 boxes was struggling a bit, so he hit one with a hammer for the last one...
