Re: Meet P.O.S.

Re: Meet P.O.S.

Hi Chris She has been stood there for 2 years now. I have turned her over though and she started with relative ease. Other than a blow from the exhaust where it joins the manifold, she is pretty sweet. Before putting her there I jacked her up and backed all the brakes right off and each wheel turns ...

Re: Meet P.O.S.

Thanks ASL. The dip switch is much better of the floor. I will be more sympathetic and move it again when finished, but I used to move them on the old Series 2 Landrovers as well as they always rotted away on the floor.

Re: Stolen 2 Cycles

I have just spoken to a friend of mine who works for a well known insurance company. He told me you do not have to have a photo of your bikes, it is a ploy they use to squirm out. As long as you have a crime reference number it will suffice. It is down to the insurance company to deal with the Polic...

Meet P.O.S.

P.O.S. (A term of endearment she has picked up) came to visit me 2 years ago and never left. She was parked in the garden with the intent of becoming a novelty chicken coop, but was considered to offensive as the chickens would not go anywhere near her. She is a 1966 (A magical year) 2 door saloon. ...
