Guest varnie3i Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Ipswich yeah never doing that again but it's another thing I can tick off the list " drove 250 mile for a bargain that wasn't a bargain with fuel costs" "drove to the most Easterly point of north Wales" ect lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeMcCarthy Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 what was wrong with it, rust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest varnie3i Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 yeah in the usual underside places. plus he has used what seems like a sky blue crayon to touch up around the badge. It'll also need about a weeks polishing before I even let it go near my cab in daylight lol all in all it was a cheep bonnet. I was stupid travelling the distance I did though. but saying that i still think i could polish it a bit and make some of the fuel back.
