Richard Turner off here turned up with a mate to get some parts off the car I'm breaking. All seemed well and he was hard at work. I got a call a few hours later to say that Rich had caught his hand on some metal and cut a four inch gash in his hand!!!!

Poor fella, hope you are ok!

Further to that another Rich from Preston turned up to collect the front Sti seats. Only to learn that the subframes where more bent than I thought. Lots of swearing hammering and pulling later we'd managed to get the sti covers to fit Rich's straight standard frames. Bar abit of glue needed to stick the covers back to the foam job was a good un.......sorry for keeping you so long Rich and hope the seats turn out A ok.

All in all a total nightmare today........:-(

 

Bad news indeed.

Do you have side lights? (off-side needed for MOT)

Thanks, and pass on my thoughts to the injured party!!

 

Gilly,
sorry to hear about the injuries. Would still be very interested in the air con but havnt got the skills to match the interest
if you can get it removed (and de-gassed!!) Ill be up like a shot, also need a front fog light glass lens (nearside) if its available.
let me know
Andy

 

Guys

Turns out the car doesn't have air con. Doh! Goes to show how much I know.

No fog lights whatsoever either.

Also turns out that most of the stuff Rich turned up to collect was not fit for use. Total nightmare. I'll be pushing breaking even on the car now. Only saving grace is the fact I now need some of the engines internals. Knowing my luck those will be shafted too.

 

Side lights?

 

bad week then huh?

 

Gilly cheers for the boot interior has transformed the car ???

 

bad week isn't the word for it. Still carless..........should be getting used to it seen as I've not had one since January.

 

Oh does it still have the steering wheel on it please?

 

not really. Air bag went so it's sort of there :-) but not if you know what I mean.........

 

Paul - I take it my wheel was no good then?

 

Charlie

Need one with the boss etc sadly I thought the other guy would have had yours One with an airbag would be preferable too (but not one thats gone off )

Paul

 

Just so you know Paul that the momo one should fit as I fitted a momo wheel straight onto my boss so the holes are the correct size and pitch diameter etc Never heard back from the other guy, will have to post it up in the for sale section. Did you get those books by the way?

 

The Gilly,have you got the screw-on petol tank cap?Do you think it will fit my 2000AWD Turbo?If yes, I will buy it off you..I have just lost it today at Esso petrol station.

 

Charlie

Not got the books yet because I have no car today. Her car hasn't got a boss because it's just got a big airbag wheel that's one piece

Paul

 

If your sis doesn't want the training wrx book or the grey guide let me know cos I'm interested in them

Gilly - Cheque is in the post for the gear surround

what car is it your breaking?

new demister switch needed for MY00

 

breaking MY96. Drop me a mail with requirements.

That's good to hear about Momo's fitting the standard boss. I've got a Nardi one that I don't like and would like to fit a nice Momo one instead

 

Chris,

Preston my @rse - I had a 150 mile drive to Newport

Great drive back tho - less than 2 hours.

Bought some upholstery spray adhesive yesterday to try out on the seat tomorrow if the weathers good.

fingers crossed

Rich
