Steve King Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 First I bought a pair of the little blanking grommet thingys that fit the front of a Defender chassis for a quid. Next up was a pair of ***k off 3 way speakers that after haggling I got for £8. I bought some "R" clips for the adjustable tow bar for £1. Finally I got a chequer plate rear wiper motor cover from QT for £15 (which seeing that the replacement plastic part cost an outrageous £20 is damn good). Pretty pleased as the standard item is cr@p and got totally bu%%ered after an unfortunate encounter with a reel of wire cable that was not properly secured. After leaving the Sortout I drove a couple of lanes nearby, first one was a disaster as it ended up as a bridleway with a motorbike sized BOAT off to the side, after a 15 point turn, I retraced the route and found a slightly overgrown lane that went for a couple of miles or so. I then headed toward Newbury and was puzzled as every car coming the other way was flashing me. Was I on fire, leaking fuel, water or was there a dead animal hanging off the bumper??? I stopped the oncoming car and the driver told me that there was an accident up ahead and the road was closed. Fi, where were you?? I looked out for you honest!!

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Knackered and sore feet yomped about from 11.00 start till we left at 4.30 Bought a load of stuff, barely got it in the Merc ! On the back seat I manged (after a bit a jiggling) a pair of 90 hardtop side panels, Split charger system and new ali numberplate, in the boot a Galv inner wing 90, other bits pair of boots,, virtually new V8 Dizzy, and other assorted stuff. Jon White bought halfshaft, cover, plate, and other bits, car was "well Full" for the journey home, which was less eventful than the journey up, wasn't it Jon(ny Fa&ty Pants). Yeah gods I know not what he ate, but I do know that just outside newbury he wriggled looked over embarassed like and said "Ooops Sorry", it was so bad that even after I opened the window I retched, and was nearly sick. We pulled into a petrol station to get him a bottle of coke, and I opened the car, he got it, got in sniffed, and said "Oooer, still hovering isn't it ?" It was If anyone waiting around 11.00 outside the gates smell anything dreadful, twas him "Moving 'within' and 'around'"..... Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I got a winch bumper (thanks Rod), a washer bottle for a project, an EGRless intercooler pipe and far more than my fair share of abuse. Oh, and the phone number of a bloke selling a Tdi autobox (and with it, a dilemma). JB PS Cheers for the cuppa Fi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Bought a load of stuff, barely got it in the Merc !

Mark90 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Had a good day. Our trailer went home a lot lighter, especially after we dropped the SII off with it's new owner on the way home. I only had a few bits to sell, which I sold, so that was nice, but it wasn't enough to pay for.... Spare pair of rear shafts for the 90 - £10 Pair of front arches to cut up and experiment with - £2 Set of HD spring retention plates - £12 Some plastic caps to cover the shocks on the inner wings - £3 Nevermind the bling stuff I bought too.. Chequer plate waffle holders off Rod Some 'Plasma' rope off Nick A pair of very bling shiney tub side protector things from Simon at X-Eng Nice to catch up with a few old faces too...............not many young ones though Anyone else notice the bird with the long legs and short denim skirt? Mind you not as good looking as the blonde chick at the sellers entrance just where you come off the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_T Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 I managed to find an exhaust manifold in good nick for my 86 inch Series One....result! Rare as hens teeth are good ones. Got a few shackles, a bridle and ye gods, some stickers!! Talked to Dave (Southdown) about a detachable towbar/tank guard for my TD5 90 but he says I am not allowed to fit such a thing. It apears that for TD5s (anything S reg or after) the towbar has to have "type approval" to be fitted. Ah well...just have to carry on ploughing!

SteveG Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Scorpion Racing do a type approved detachable tow bar that uses US type Class III receiver. Look under recovery/towing in 4x4 products. I have no idea how much it is though. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 Steve - wanna swap it for the fairey 5000? Then I'll have a matching pair FWIW the Superwinch one is almost identical, I think they just carried on making them when they bought Fairey, only differences I can see is details like the fins on the end, red handle, and the name on the side!
