Addictive isn't it.....
Then before you know it you will get the addiction of polishing it so it looks like a petrol powered diamond ring...

What did you use to remove the anno??

 

[voo2doo]

Caustic crystals mate.

That's great. Looks just like FG alloy now !!

 

[chris taylor]

that looks really good much better than the anodised parts far more tasteful as they say "less is more"

claughton village part of birkenhead. run my car in new brighton just rebuilding a carson gas blaster/super attack one thing for sure this isnt a cheap hobby but the cars are great to work on. finally feel im getting somewhere with it but now my pull starter has packed up! got a tuned pipe in the post a few little jobs and it should be running great. the guy i bought it from had just used it and not carried out much in the way of maintenance but its looking great now almost like new. took a lot of cleaning and fettling but it was worth it. benefit is i have had nearly every bit off it so ill be an alright when things need replacing i can take it apart in my sleep now.:lol:

once its all back together i need someone who is good at tuning the engines as im a complete novice and would like to get it set up well any offers would be welcomed lol!!

Get yourself off over to Deeside with it 1 Sunday afternoon & there will be plenty there to help you out with the tuning. Have a look at the idiots guide in the engine section for tuning tips.
