missing me?

[Chris H]

hello peeps I have no time these days to come on really.

I have some quiet time just now which I will spend with the boss I reckon whos massive due to my evil seed inside her.

Todays job was meant to be an iveco turbo daily head back on, I got the head off on wednesday it wa sin yesterday getting tested and skimmed and had to wait for the belt and gasket and the guy was meant to get me around 2, he called at 1 sayign he was on time then never showed so he may be dead or something.

Anyway at 3pm I decided to get on with the E39 BMW I have here, problem reverse, 1st, 2nd and 3rd crunchign badly and jumping out of gear.

4:30 box out. I'm impressed with myself. You have to remove the exhaust and the the heatshields etc so you can move the prop out of the way.

Its 523i, 200124 miles, on a W plate, yes high miler. Car is pretty tidy, original clutch, box and exhaust system! The box has never had an oil change and its fecked tbh so its up to him what he wants to do, it needs a clutch, release arm, slave pushrod and a damn good servicing. But its a tidy motor.

Anyway if anyone wanted parts etc off me pm me as I know some of you did but I haven't had a chance to get on here till now really.

[Chris H]

I'm not Simon!

I'll update you now on whats happened with it.

Carpets in (cheers simon), binned the old seats. Had to use the grinder on the drivers seat runner. I used to have lots of runners but scrapped them all so need a drivers seat runner. I brought the 2 front seats round from my sisters cellar (shes glad but wants the rears gone too) so they are just sititng in it just now, drivers seat has no subframe either.

Have had to move the car which is fun with a seat on the floor thats not bolted down...

Emmas coupe tyres on the front which were nexens had as nexens do won away rapidly so shes taken the new tyres on the grey one for her coupe so its itting on dodgy 15 inch millie miglias.

I need bits for it thing is the bits I need I scrapped.

I scrapped a whole load last week, doors, wings, wheels and so on. Got 50 quid for just under half a ton. Price has dropped to 120 per ton which is pish
