Been ebaying with a vengence
 

Have hit the ebay good style lately and I think " the boy did good". Sierra steering wheel and column with lock and key £31, rear back plates, brake shoes, bearing hubs, drums and break cyinders £35 the lot, bearing for the steering column support £9.99 and a nice Dremmel oh and a handbreak £16, not bad me thinks

a good 75% of my car will be sourced from the bay... love it or loathe it, not having to get off your butt to obtain things is ...well, kinda nice, apart from answering the door of course:rolleyes:

It beats crawling around under cars in the scrappy, especially this time of year

Arfon

Good on you Arf ;)

Hi Twin hows the build going, are you still down south or back in Chester

Arfon

Sounds like you have managed to get a few bargains there Arf :cool: :)

Your dead right about it not being much fun crawling about at the breakers, probably would have cost you most of that if you had made all that effort to remove them yourself ;)

Have started to clean up my diff which I also had off ebay earlier this year, what a job, the guy I bought it from had painted it in red lead for some reason god only knows why. Have taken cover plate off and the crown wheel is ingraved with 3.92 ratio, and i'm going to powdercoat it but not sure if i'm going to do it in black or silver. Any suggestions

Arfon

The build is going slow & is in Stafford now, but i'm in Chester every w/end getting bits together ;)

well done, sounds like you got some good deals there, should help the build along nicely!

tilly

Had a phone call tonight from my mate he has grit blasted the outside of the diff cover I left with him lastnight so I am going to have a go at powder coating the outside of it, think it will be in tittanium, ans painting the main casing black. Hey twin dont come back up here just to snaffel all the good bits
