gaz the geezer

have you been talking to that double 6`s ? :) , he keeps on about selling the wheels etc etc etc, tbh, if a decent offer comes along i may well part with them sometime soon but i need the car to roll so they`ll have to stay put for another week or so :lol:

nah ya dont, twas a pleasure mate and yer car is a peach ...... dont worry too much :thumbleft: :)

i`ve just noticed that you live near me, would you like me to give it the once over sometime soon ?

....... about £3000 for a stealth 12v rebuild and about that figure for a 24v install

there are a lot of people on here that are only to happy to help or chat about stuff jeff, :thumbleft:

hello jeffcabbage, i`m sorry to hear of your loss fella, it`s truly a life defining moment and sharpens your perspective on whats left of your own exsistance, i`m glad you are going to say a few words at the funeral, i`ve done the same thing myself and i can say it is the most difficult thing i have ever done, just remember that you are surrounded by people who love and care for you so dont be afraid of saying what your thinking, you will feel better afterwards, not straight away but you will eventually knowing that you have said goodbye properly. all the best mate, best foot forward

:lol: , if you read most of the thread you can hear a lot of that too

nah, i dont hate you, you have to make a bit of luck in this life and you obviously have done that ............. fecking jammy ars*hole :lol:

:rofl: , love it

it`s always nice to see a project coming together, i hope it all comes out like you expect it to mate :thumbleft:

pass the pepper darling :lol:

nice to see someone lead loading instead of that modern filler stuff, nice one paul, a man after my own heart ... do it properly and do it once :thumbleft:

maybe he`s right busy converting his c to run on perpetual motion lotion, tesco`s do it apparently :)

i`ve already got you covered mate :thumbleft:

hello V3DUB, i wouldnt have thought it worth mentioning the bushes tbh, just out of interest, how`s the future of your c mate ?

pm sent :thumbleft:

save it mate, i would find it hard to just leave it there to rot tbh :thumbleft:

:) i had a matrix go on my 16v golf and i nearly had a nasty accident !!!, apart from the nasty antifreeze smell and misting uo of the windows, the carpet had got waterlogged quite quickly and the combination of wet trainers on smooth pedal rubbers was alarming as i went to brake and found my foot slipping off the brake pedal :shock: , nowt happened fortunately but it was damn close ......... it would be nice if someone had come up with a stainless steel one that came as a fit and forget thing making all this matrix nonsense a thing of the past ............ (starts to think ) maybe someone has already :-P

it`s still a good idea to get it sorted anyhow, so dont feel like you`ve wasted your time, the good thing about doing this sort of job is not having to experience the disaster / agony of having it go pop just when you need it the least 8)

:lol: it all started with replacing the rear axle bushes and it all sort of got out of control from there :lol: , on top of that, i`ve a midnight blue vr6 that will require a bit of work and that is for the missus to mooch about in :thumbleft: , it should be a nice drive over from where you are up to the `smoke`, i travel in and out of london quite a bit myself with work, anyhoo, as your probaly aware, stealth come highly recommended so i`m sure you`ll enjoy the drive back even more after it`s been fiddled with 8)

:lol: , love it

excellent pics :thumbleft: , not to sure about being mobbed by grown men in leiderhosen tho :oops: :lol: , looks like you had a good time ....... just lovin the smooth silver grey corrado ..... absolute mint 8)

whereabouts are you from fella if you dont mind me asking ?

hello White2505, looks like you`ve been a bit busy just lately :) , you know it will be all worth it when she`s all sorted, i`ve a mountain to climb myself but i`m not downhearted ......... just trying to find time to crack on and get it done, it would be nice to see a few more pics when you get the time mate :thumbleft:

hello moneypit23, it certainly sounds that it could be either or both, if you or any family member / friend dont fancy having a stab then someone on here may well be able to inform you of a `friendly` garage that may be close to you, if you lived a bit closer i would have taken a look myself :reindeer:
