i tipped it on its side to drop the back axle and front subframe off complete ( could not be bothered with jacking it up and crawling under ) then just kicked it onto its roof incase it tipped over when anyone was next to it till the shell goes....

Lawnsy drives like a nutter i can remember him wheels spinning when he left the scotch corner meets. Then there was the time at the first teesside park meet of this year when he came into the car park side ways. What a mad man lol. I know the feeling about not been arsed to do things to your cars,i feel the same. Ive got some daft little jobs to do to my cossie and i just carnt be fucked.
