That's why I am building my 51 Austin Countryman with all the Omega running gear, looks stock but far from it.

Fitted the squib to the Austin, found a plug in the box off old Omega wiring but it had one to many terminals to plug in the back. Bit of snipage and it fitted. Next problem was the wheel adaptor had to be machined down to fit the centre turning bit,40 grit flap disc in the angle grinder works! Waiting for a horn push to finish the job.

« on: 10 April 2024, 18:29:06 »
Because the chemist in town is about 2ft closer to my flat than the pharmacy at the docs I have to ask the chemist to ring the docs for them to okay the meds as they wont do them on repeat ,when a doc has got round to looking at the request they then send a prescription to the chemist who then has to get it ordered. Took over 2 weeks quite a few times, daft thing is I am on these meds till I turn my toes up but the cant put them on repeat----------

Well I ordered some ducting hose for the Austin of the bay Wednesday afternoon and it came the next day, Erivi as well. What pissed me of was I ripped the back of my hand fitting it on the pointy end of a selftapper sticking through the bulkhead /fire wall .

I thought this would be a B, well he is going to look at it. Needs a 7 seater as his partner has 2 girls from a previous and now they have 2 between them.Not much room for a buggy behind rear seats!

General Car Chat / 1.6 Zaff
« on: 04 April 2024, 14:16:20 »
Seeing how my youngest lad didnt keep his pants zipped up he now needs a 7 seater, got a text from him asking if a 2013 1.6 Zaffera was any good. Told him gutless but no worse that any of the choices for reliability . 88K he said for mileage.

Gave the Yeti a good clearout driving to Kiddy for the NSRA Big Brunch local hot rod run, couple of good 70mph bits of duel on the way so hope the DPF had a dump! Was good with 30? hot rods and customs and the unveiling of a new FED (front engined dragster ) All you could eat buffet breakfast as well!!
