Jag looks good.

Almost don't want to mention it but read though the other thread last night and I wish you the very best moving forward with life in general.
To a lesser extent I can relate to a lot of your situation, I have a bodyshop, I had an accident at work in 2013 which left me with a damaged discs and 24/7 nerve pain for 10months, crutches and for the last month before the op unable to walk at all. nearly a year off work, Physio ect ect the whole nine yards! I was building RC cars not Lego though...

but most of all I laughed at the Mophine Farts.... yeah they are fookin' bad!

Minirotty

Thanks Cris, Like you with the RC I've been doing Lego and messing around sorting this Jag out to keep my brain occupied.

I've fitted a modern head unit but done something funny to keep it retro and has fooled loads of people lol












Haha

Minirotty

Owh yeah forgot a pal got me this placemat too but I wont use it, I put it my model display cabinet.

150quid bargain imo.

Minirotty

Still have my garage car racking, could out that up in garden?

visa_broke

bet the folks next door would love the view, better than potted plants.

Can't believe how cheap these are, lot of car for the money

Minirotty

The prices are statting to shoot up, get one now if ya want one

Minirotty

Back on the road today after two months off as it needed new brakes then the bearings at the back changing again as the lad who fitted then didn't torque them up correctly as he thought 320 pounds sounded to much for tapered bearings, which I agree but if they have a sandwich plates between them it's understandable in my head, but not his!

3 weeks to locate to correct brake pads and discs for front and rear and another 2 weeks then to locate 2 bearings!

Old cars eh!

Minirotty

Tuck her to Retro Show at Santa Pod Sumday with wife and kids, was great day out, ya can see me sat there next to Jag early when arrived lol

Still looking Gangsta

Minirotty

Thanks lads.

The blokes at that show loved it, tbh the classic shows I've attended she's had nonnegative comments.

Had some snidey comments online fron some purist Jag owners but I just wind um up and end up getting banned from wherever they are lol


And she got a wash yesterday after a drive out, looks bling haha





Some as I can I'm doing the wheel centres gold.

stevos

That's great mate the thing is you haven't done anything major to the car that can't be reversed so why they getting all arsey. That's thing with purist most are Cocks, their cars are the best and everyone else's are shit.
Yours looks 100x better than theirs will.
