Not too bad fella!
I always look in to see whats happening

These in kit form have been around since early 90's. Late 60's early 70's Cougars had LED upgrade kits and have done for donkeys years. All they've done is change the shape. Plus cougars had seqential as standard. My old one ran with them with no problems from the right MOT centre.

Still bloody cool!

Right, we've got 2 Mountain boards and want to retro fit go kart wheels on them to enable us to use them on soft sand.
Heres the problem, the boards trucks have either 10mm or 12mm axles, the go kart wheels use 3/8" internal bearings.
Ideally id like to get some:

10 or 12mm internal x 35mm (3/8") external bearings. Now these dont seem to exist.

Anyone got any ideas?

I had this ages ago and all it needed was to restore factory setting to IE.

If only someone had suggested you check fuel pressure with a gage or press of the schrader valve on the fuel rail...

Hehehehe

If your not driving the car, the fuel WILL gel over time. Seen it many times. Just last week I dropped the tank of a friends firebird. He drives it like you and the tank had a load of gunge in the bottom of it.

Its usually helped along by cold weather too.
Have you managed to test the fuel rail pressure?

How much fuel do you leave in the car when stored?

Hope you have a good one Art, we are off to the 'Bear Wrestler's Inn' for the Annual Eggnog-a-thon.

Hahahaha youve got more snow than us!!

Most guys round these parts are either Gay lumberjacks, think a 'Girl' is a Hockey team or look like Mass Murderers!

Hehehe yeah, I gave up and asked the missus thinking best not to keep it secret. Anyway she gave some real good ideas and came up with something perfect.
Honesty is the best policy!!

Just gotta run the 3some thing past her next

Im not seeing her until next friday which is when i need the gift for. Ill try for pics to cheer your xmas spirit but her fella is a bit ott. He thinks eveyone wants to shag her (which they do).

Havnt got any pics, might try and get one next week!

Right, I have a friend who is a girl (hot btw ) and she has got me an xmas pressie. What the hell do I get her?
Its got to cheap as im well classy!
I dare not ask my missus

You guys are getting hit pretty hard by the sounds of it.

Its -15 here at night. I hit a huge ice patch and crashed me truck the other night

How cold is it there?

Yeah he lived/lives in Bristol, it didnt have the same appeal. Did you see it after I finished it?

Saying that I found my old Cougar for sale too, not to my taste but hey!

Saying that I sold my 72 Duster as a rolling Chassis with more filler than metal for £800 bought it as a runner for £1200 four years previously!

Yeah ive had some decent finds over the years, and your Duster had a lot in common with my Dart lol

Yeah its almost 3am, cant sleep!! Its the start of Moose Mating season and they make so much bloody noise!!!

Hey Phil, it sure does seem the Classic car market in the UK has changed in the last 3 years.

Is it still possible to buy a classic yank with mot for around £1k?

Now im talking a beater, and pre 70, ideally but def' pre 80.

I wanna buy my old man a car but have limited budget, i need to keep a few thousand aside for repairs on said car but to make it viable the car needs to be as cheap as possible.

Im coming over early 2011 so thats the time scale.

Oh and before someone says anything, just under 3 years ago I bought a 67 Dodge Dart for less so it used to be possible.
Is it still? anyone?

Hmmmm the Desire HD looks shit imho. Might leave it now
