The Ince Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 shame least you can still use your bonnet, and the front bumper with a little repair Annoying thing is the crash didn't damage the front bumper, the recover truck did. The strut support was overtightened when I got the car, I changed the sus within 2 weeks of having it and used my torque spanner properly tighten it as I do with every bolt. It had also had the wheel bearings overtightened, and a few undertightened like the bumpers were loose. BTW 4 of the wheels are still serviceable, so they might go on the next car, after a refurb and xray to check they are ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make me an offer on the pump and and other parts you want Do you happen to have the bonnet lining for the TD avaliable, can swap for a normal one. My estate doesn't have one it seems, making the intercooler utterly useless (that's the one with the special ducting to allow air to get up and straight into the cooler) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLING Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 were u get them wheels from mate, they're your old ones he swapped 'em with Neil for Superleggeras thought so has i was missing one of them centre caps, are they fucked now, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ince Posted January 1, 2006 Author Share Posted January 1, 2006 Carl, The door handles are colour coded (state blue) as we're the bump strips, and mirrors. The boot handle was a ghia number plate surround (genuine ford) Chappers, the bonnet lining but it has been cut for the bonnet scoop and strut brace to fit Bling, 1 wheels fcuked, the others will be getting a refurb and be on the new car in a few months time (when I have money again as the new car emptied my savings), and they now have 1 center cap, but when they get refurbed the shops said they'll make some for me as wolfrace don't make them. Some old pics of it Also put some blue 100mm angel eye fog lights into the front bumper, richbrook silver globe (think that's what it was called) gearknow, and full ghia trim, interior trim in light grey. Also going to have an LX rear bench, front seats, black and grey steering wheels, a set of faded ATD white dials showing 16K miles, ghia badged white clock, all parts of the 110bhp TDi engine and fuel system (only power steering pump, rack and trak rod ends not for sale), its 2" S/S Cat-back powerflow exhaust (it didnt have a cat but easiest way to describe it) PM me with offers for anything you want, or e-mail me markinstone@btinternet.com or add me to msn on the same addy.
