Koop Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 When you've got a mate who builds racing cars who's offered to do it for free why bother? haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad1992 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 haha true.. i just do it by myself and the guy up the road whos a Vdub specialist comes and gives me tools and stuff to help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Yeah it's the tools I'm short on really, the most I'd done on a car before I got the first loop was replaced a bracket for the cooling system on me old AX, which involved 2 bolts & a hose clip so I only needed a screwdriver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Correct, I now have 2 wind deflectors, was rolling with just the driver's side for a while as I couldn't get the passenger window open So my window might still not be fixed but at least I have some symmetry now, every cloud an all that haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Team Heko, widely reported as the bestest, they have sticky bits on em & some brackets to push up into the channel to hold em securely (which I haven't got round to doing yet lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Wheel bombing complete - didn't get the total coverage I originally planned but sod it, gotta get the buggers on before I run out of summer One's had a couple of coats of lacquer......at which point I ran out of lacquer. I wasn't going to do them all tonight anyway with the ever present threat of rain. I've had too much experience of running a full set of wheels inside mid-paintjob cos it's started raining Grand plan was to get the tyres on saturday but Mrs Koop needs taking to the trafford centre to get her dad's birthday prezzie so that's out, spoke to my mate at Ginetta though & he's gonna show me how to put tyres on on Monday & leave me to do them while he puts the coilies on so that should be interesting...especially as 2 of them are going to be stretched, nothing like jumping in at the deep end eh Gave the coilies a bit of a clean too, just brushed em off with a wire brush really, gonna strip & grease them over the weekendExciting times Edited May 31, 2012 by Koop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowPoke Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Wooo hoo not long now then! thats reminded me i need to copper grease mine! how old are those weitechs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JampotJamie Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Lows for Koop winning at last my friend haha. I've just thought, I bought my coilies second hand in December, and didn't grease them when I put them on. Are the chances of them being ceased quite high?
