Recenly added a couple of things... Schult'd (Stonechipped) the pickup bed... Got rid of the Ali Box Petrol Tank - Added fuel supplies. Looks a bit more Utility now, but I don't mind that - the ride height suggests a stocker rather than a custom anyway...    - Rmad ! the tank looks better now it's not yellow hey !? |

That's so cool, can't remember seeing this thread as stuff moves so quick round here. Nice additions, feels kind of post apocalyptic hot rod esque... I guess.  |

bump steer is when the wheel toes in or out when the suspension goes up and down, caused by suspension steering changes. wheels wont effect bump steer.
marinanut, your probably thinking of "tram lining" when you fit larger wheels, lower profile, wider tyres without sorting the suspension. it feels like you are fighting the car as it follows the contours of the road.

Rob have you sold the marina It's my daily at the moment... I've bought another daily but it needs work before the MOT so god know how long it will be until she's going!? Loving the beer keg fuel tank Shame about the sump. No chance of making a wing'd shallower one then or owt? Cool motor MOT tester did have to check his book over the tank ... Re the sump: I think I probably could but before I did that I'd change the front suspension for across member type thing (viva?) and lift the engine up and back anyway... don't know if you know Marinas but they have the steering rack across the firewall so difficult to fit bigger engines... I'll do a Coupe next I think and do it proper like Cheers Rob |

Wow... wasn't expecting this to pop up anytime soon...  I sold the old girl in the end... to a guy in Manchester... Seemed genuine enough ... Sold it for feck all tho. Pog should have bought it but it never worked out that way (I needed cash over a good home, sad hey!?) He was a 'dealer' and breaker... Must check on the DVLA to see if she's still taxed... maybe I'm thick but it has only just occured to me that this might be bangered now... I really hope not  What do we think ? |
