You told me I was different [emoji26]

He says that to all the new boys...be careful when he offers you a "ride"

Hi buddy. Welcome to the club! When you pick it up show us some pics. We love all that.

I blame a concentrated area of gravity. You gotta watch out for those. They especially target seniors.

I've got your number already mate [emoji4] I'm Colin. With the silver classic that's usually picking your brain making sure I get all the bits together for my remap.

Ouch. Just heavy dose of painkillers for that. I did similar. Tripped at work broke my hand. But being self employed I couldn't afford time off. Manage just two days off. I thought it was just sore. Took 3 days before I went to have xray. Driving a 360 with full arm cast on [emoji106]

Welcome aboard Duncan! Be prepared for untold amounts of pm's.

How'd you manage that mate?

I don't, sorry. I've only ever been a classic man.

Welcome to the club! What kind of issue does it have with idle? Does it differ from hot/cold? Does the issue vanish when revs are increased?

Yeah that's right. I know the rear track on a classic is 1450mm have a look about for the size of new age cars if they tally up then I don't see much reason they won't fit. Check the wheel base too. I don't know that measurement. [emoji14]

Did you say the sub frame was buckled too? I can imagine those arms/links will work if you're doing both sides as they're adjustable but I don't know much about the in and outs of it all. Not sure if I would trust an adjustable joint on my daily car. And the set up will take some intricate measuring.

Can you draw the faces you were pulling?

Hi there Vicky! Welcome along to the club. Really nice looking car that. That's what I hope to end up with one day. Or a WR1(We can all dream) If you're close to the Kent border we are in the process of getting a monthly meet going. It's still in very early stages but once we have it established I can give you a shout.

Now you know what it is, time to make a shopping list [emoji57]

Yeah I can imagine I'm gonna get that. Then it'll be noise pollution.

Yeah that's how I see it. Always starts small. I'll do some homework and find a couple of nice local places with parking. I'll call the places and have a chat with the manager.

I've pm'd you some details.

I joined in December.

It'd be nice if we can encourage a good bit of interest and get a routine monthly meet.

I went to a meet two weeks ago. It was nice. I don't know any other owners first hand.

Greenhithe me mate.

Id hate to see another classic go to a grave [emoji26]

Have a hunt around on www.importcarparts.co.uk you might find what you need.

Might be easier to find a good condition second hand complete back end. Less to undo and put back on.
