I just put the old bit back on…

#I have no idea what’s going on there or what I’m supposed to say

One of my mates took one on Saturday of me with an SLX crank arm attached to my boot. A crank arm I had installed, which had worked its way off its splines altogether. That probably sums it up.

I knocked this together in my spare time:

I’d rate myself as “fairly” handy with the spanners…… 😉

Not the first time I’ve posted this, won’t be the last

OH GOD by Northwindlowlander, on Flickr

This one is more flattering, quite a lot going on in here

the one at the back was just gratuitous – applauds

Very good jamie

Northwind, that On-One is excellent! 😆

Hahah took me a few seconds Jamie. Brilliant as ever.

Do motorcycles and bikes as well…

Maxtorque ftw. I read about that on some motoring forum. Did’nt understand a word of it mind!

Jamie a close second.

Metal:

Ive been known to knock up a few things now and then.

But also take things a little too literally. 3x cross you say?
😳

I really like the squirrel.

That’s wonderful, Jamie.

Orange project 150b build..

Need a bigger garage!

maxtorque, I’ve saw you post that beast in previous threads on here – excellent work, go straight to the top of the class and take a well deserved holiday (ps…you don’t fancy doing some remedial work to a 30yr old MK2 Golf do you? ) 😉

From this 2 years ago :

Engine and gearbox was removed the following day

After £4k of uprated parts (engine/suspension/braking) thrown at it and extensive chassis welding underneath it turned into this :

And this year i have turned it back into this after deciding to replace the entire lower exterior of the car due to rust :

Removed the back panel

New rear panel fitted

Cut out every bit of rust i found which turned into rather more work than i had planned for

Inner and outer + lower sills fitted on both sides

Rear arches to fit either side

Lower door skins to fit either side

New front valence to fit along with all new bumpers and plastic trims/window+door seals/decals and of course a full spray job….should be finished in the next two months (hopefully) , sometimes i think i should’ve just taken the easy option and spent the money on a modern Golf R32, but then that’d be too sensible for me.

That pic of the golf door on the wooden table just makes me think “French polishers? It’s just possible you could save my life”

and hopefully soon this…

A mate of mine is combining a Lexus and an Espace to make the Lexspace

Stoner-that looks like i was hard work to lace up

You built an ostrich Duggan? That’s pretty awesome!

Built this up a few years ago. Hope to build a couple more with bits I still have. Thats if I can stop spending on my mountain bikes 🙂

Fivespot – that is lovely.

3 Q’s.

1. What is it?
2. How much would it cost?
3. Is it/could it be road legal?

Love the trials bike five spot , that’s excellent.

Do all my own spanner work this was a Hope brake service and rebuild..

Why?

I’ve always found that a tidy working environment helps enormously.

Sadly, I rarely seem to achieve it.

Im sweating must looking at that bench…..aaaaarrrgghhhhhhhhh
Tidy it up please

Nice bike Five.

My grandad used to have a proper epic workbench, when we helped him clear it up one time we found a whole rat skeleton buried in it. Thanks for that grandad.

cfinnimore..
I hope Graeme at Hart’s Cyclery is paying you in tea and hobnobs for that bit of marketing

Can I have 2? Old bike but you get the idea 😀

Fivespot – that is lovely.

3 Q’s.

1. What is it?
2. How much would it cost?
3. Is it/could it be road legal?

1)Its a Triumph Tiger Cub (199cc) in Trials trim.
2)One like this would be anywhere from £2,500 to £4,000
3)Yes it could be made road legal

Cheers Fivespot.
