there's going to be a reason for that price difference - probably quality

Was searching for a part or two to throw my spare engine back together. Gaskets, bearings, piston rings, bolts, timing chain kit... Was a surprise, I'll give it a go

Use the one off the project mini until you can get hold of another?

I very much doubt any motor factor will have a clutch arm. I have a spare I can post out on loan Karl. PM me if you need it and I'll have a look.

thanks Matt, I'm using the one off the project mini (witch was running) for the time being, also didn't know if welding the worn arm would be a viable option with the quality of some new parts these days.

Keep yer chin up mate - no matter what he says, just think to yourself that you will beat it and enjoy life no matter what is thrown at you. I had a good mate who was badly burned at 17 and a half on the Sir Galahad in the Falklands War (same ward etc as Simon Weston), fella lived life to the full.

I didn't know such jobs existed anymore. Figured all engineers became "consultants" or went into finance

Yeah, I'm in a weird place career-wise atm. Not really done much work for the last year, but waiting on some big changes work wise.

Hi what needs doing

Rear floorpan has a welded patch on each side, done in the past (about 18 months ago) and it has been botched (they just welded it from the inside) so it all needs redoing. It seems to have gone rotten already.

I've seen it on different occasions and the first time was blue and black and the second time it was white and gold! So I'm confused!

Apparently how bright the surroundings are to the picture affects the way it appears.

Purcey also woke up a couple of weeks ago so after fixing Him on Friday my natural instinct was to take him for a spin ;)
