Oh, I should have noticed the post on modifications -- of course leaf Springs could be an interesting modification to your D1 so you do not have to change your motto-- okay I should mention do not drive around with it, just in case you get use to not having your bones vibrated apart.
Oh, buy shares in an oil company to get fuel for it.
Good buy.

I agree John, a smile is a frown turned upside down!!!!:)
Well i we put 6 months rego on the disco yesterday.. Also i think the problem with the brakes was the handbrake may have been stuck on, but there is air in the brakes so will flush & rebleed them all.. BUT i took out a whole heap of wires that went nowhere got a bucket full. they where from an old aftermarket cruze control didnt work anyway & all the others where from an old alarm from the look of the plug at the end of them.. Then i moved the disco up onto the slab so could start the brake bleeding.. Didnt happen while moving it by the time i did the 10 point turn & got it on the slab there was SMOKE pooring out the dash.. I broke the fusebox cover trying to get it off in a hurry to take out the fuse i replaced the day before. Wasnt that fuse that caused it but it was the last thing i did so pulled it.. Waited a bit then started it again & still smoke.. Turned it off again.. waited & just turned the key to on & yes smoke.. Was coming out of the vents. So under the dash i went , Still couldnt find anything wrong.. See all the vents are sealed so that the AIR can flow through them So i couldnt work out how it was coming out of the vents.. Well they are sealed except where the blowers are for the air con & heater. So today i got Karen to look under dash on passengers side while key was on , No smoke but hot wires , so i started the car & gave it a couple of boot fulls & YES we had smoke. theres a plug there thats getting hot & theres a few relays on the kick panel on the passengers side to one was getting hot. So i started the car agin & i got on the passengers side floor under the dash & got Karen to rev a bit finaly i got some smoke ,, I think its coming from above the 2 blowers.. So looks like i will have to pull the whole dash out to find the cause.. I cant go threw the glove box to get to them like in the latter 2s as i dont have a glove box so the dash has to come out so i can see whats going on up there & try & fix it so it can be driven.. While moving the disco to the slab there seemed to be no trouble with the brakes other then a bit spongy pedal.. BUT the dash is a worry..The suspension is cactus the rear shocks just flop around. Need to replace the snorkel as i we can get booked for the whole in the gaurd GGGGGRRRRR.. Seriously needs a bullbar to.. We also have to find the whole floor carpet & get some new mats.. I guess it will be a work in progress. Lets just hope i can get this SMOKEY dash fixed before the rego runs out or it will have been a waste of money & time.... I do like the car tho.. It is the original 3.5 not a 3.9 Dunno where the last owner got that it had been changed from but it hasnt .. Needs a good tune up as the engine is a little smokey . New plugs maybe some leads & clean the throttle body out a bit & see what happens..Ill have to put the alloys on it . They are smaller but have great tyres although they look CHEAP & TACKY. . . oh yeah the front drivers side tyre is slowly going down i noticed today aswell.Oh & we need to replace both head lights as they are very rust on the inside..Cant think of anything else except that BLOODY dash smoking up bad.. Its driving me crazy its so hard to get under the dash in these things.. The green one ya just undo 2 big screws & pull the dash out.. The instrument cluster anyway..
Yes Karen hasnt been happy for a good few weeks now , She is worrying me .. She is usualy not like this at all.. :(Quote:

Also karen is going through menapause which isnt helping. All her womanly things have been turned off & emotions. She just hates life in general & is now hatting the tattoos she got from the shop when we had a break a couple of years ago. She thinks she is old fat ugly hopeless..Says she is happy here with me but nothing else.. Will just have to see what happens..& hope for the best.. I know all to well what its like to be like she is at the moment i feel like that most weeks. But i am a FAT so & so I cant even see me toes without bending to see em..Quote:

They make double that in there cash jobs a year , But they want to retire next year so dont want to help.. Which is fine but dont say you want to help when you dont want to help at all..
