Iceworx Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Ello everyone. I have just purchased a 1994 Disco 1, in need of some TLC... I wa actually googling "rear door seals" and I found this place. I have done some looking around and it seems you guys know lots! So I thought I would join up in the hope I can glean some useful information, as I am sure I will have lots of questions. Im quite mechanincally minded, but most of my knowledge lies mostly with jap engines, particularly nissans. I am also a gadget freak too, love my pc's and other electronic toys. Car audio, and the fabrication of is another hobby of mine, but not on a competition level. When im not rattling about in the shed or under the 200sx i like taking my dog out for walks, and the occasional spot of fishing. Anyway, I apologise for rambling on, but I thought I should introduce myself. Regards Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceworx Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Thanks for the welcome everyone. I've been out cleaning the disco all day... Started out shampoo'ing the interior with the vax, 60L of dirty gritty water, and things are starting to look and smell a lot better. Sorted out the rear door today as well, no more leaks.

Iceworx Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 It would seem so. Had the mot done today and it only failed on a headlight, rear discs, leaky steeering rack, and 2 small patches needed welding so its not too bad for a 14 year old disco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
