Alee83's Cherry Red Rallye

[Alee83]

Well, today has been interesting!

Was working over this morning, so decided to try drill out a sheared locking wheel bolt from when I changed my tyres back to front last week!

This was going well till a work mate suggested to try the thread extractor which then also sheared... New problem of not being able to drill it out anymore as the extractor was hardend steel... BIG SAGGY BALLS!!! :mad:

Anyway, the only thing to do now is get a new rear bearing at £50 something from Euros, don't like only changing one side, but with the other costs of new injectors, new tyres on all 4 corners, new TRE's and new locking bolts I can't afford to do 2, so one will have to wait!

Another bummer is that I got some new vinyl Rallye stickers for the sides and rear done in yellow! These were a little bigger than the originals in size, but would have looked great, if only I could get the old ones off!!! Some dozy plonk has laquered over the side stickers.

WHY, OH WHY would you do that!!!!

On the up side I have some more injectors coming and I got some freshly painted mirror caps on and secure to stop the annoying whistling ones I had on!!


I have also settled to go with 4 new Uniroyal RS2's. Can't wait, as then I will be painting the clones Astor grey and tinting the masks, a little bit, with Lamin-x.
