Bummer Ian, do you think the hit into the tyre wall did this or natural fatigue?
That’s Tough Ian, there are plenty of excellent metal fabricator/ engineers in the Penrith area, worth a google perhaps get a part made
Only 4 bolts hold the back half of the car to the front half - it's a non trivial part and is not only designed to carry loads but also will be made from a specific grade of aluminium. I'd prefer to have one made by March, but if not I have a very good fabricator/engineer in Windsor, Precision One Off Engineering.
Bummer. I would think the alloy tech is better nowadays - was 7075-T6 around then? Even that's probably old tech now.
Oh crap Ian…If Dad was around easy fix…Might be worth calling P Simms as he’s still in the know with surviving old Skool fabricators….
Image Unavailable, Please Login apart from the engine light coming on and the filter being a very snug fit I’m back in the game runs beautifully and after being sat around for a month I managed to squeeze another 1/2 litre of oil out of the sump
Let it warm up properly, then disconnect the battery for a few mins. The CEL will disappear but the code will be stored. Start her up again and see if it throws the code again. Can’t quite remember but it was the oxygen sensor on one of the banks when I checked it with my OBD tool yeah????
Ok will do and yep I remember that(Thankyou ) and then the engine light went out and I forgot about it I’ll get it looked at soon, in the meantime I’m going to give it a good wash n polish( new rear Pirelli’s Ok checkup then Pirelli’s
Aaaaasgh bugga... hope a replacement can be found. Motorsport is definitely not for the easily frustrated.
He's an out of control nutcase but he can drive. Unfortunately he didn't have enuff self control to compete in motorsport.
Entertaining but he'll only ever be a trick driver.................................a very very very wealthy trick driver!
