General Car Chat / Re: So what have you done to your car today?
« on: 04 February 2024, 17:55:35 »
MrsGK has decided to acquire a muscular 20-something year old Japanese chap who bizarrely goes by the name Hank and is proud of his Bighorn.
Luckily for me, Hank is an Isuzu, that we would call a Trooper.
Unhappily for me the rear wheel arch was made of rust and hope. Oh, and repair panels don't exist. Luckily guru Addy, also of this parish, has imbued me with the skills to use the hot glue gun and make it back into something car shaped. Not the prettiest welding that the world's ever seen, because I'm not the prettiest welder.
But now it's solid, safe, and even the pajnt match has turned out very well indeed.
MrsGK did the filling and painting, naturally.
Now that's done it's time to pick the next hideous car to try to work on...!
