anyone i don't really care what condition and if its rundown just as long everything's there and

SebastienPeek ·

Ah, don't we all want cheap little cruisers...

Best bet, get a cheap arse Suzuki or something. Just drive it around until it dies, while playing with your bug.
That's what I'm going to try and do.

jamiesc ·

haha yes we do and i thought that also just seeing if i can first i have till next tuesday
till my bug is outta rego

SebastienPeek ·

What's wrong with the bug?

I'm going to assume something is wrong if you're not bothering to re-register it?

i am going to do a rebuild of it nothing is wrong with it i still use it 2-3 times a week but
paint is fading little bit of cancer coming through and just want to do a rebuild
and stroking it with bigger pistons heaps of other lil things

SebastienPeek ·

Ah, that makes sense.
Kinda what I wanna do. Grab a little Suzuki Swift GTi and run around in that while stripping Zelda back and getting her ready for paint.

But good luck trying to find something 😀

haha sounds good when you do it start a build thread up i wanna see the progress mate
and thanks 🙂

SebastienPeek ·

I already have a build thread, just been a bit quiet while sorting out carbs and what not 😉

Hell, I think I've gone off getting a car. Lot cheaper for me to buy a pushbike and just ride to and from work while Zelda is being pulled a part...
😀

jamiesc ·

haha i no what you mean atleast your saving on fuel and atleast it would be worth it at the end
what carbs you putting 38-40's?

SebastienPeek ·

Aha yep!
And I'd be getting fit which, as a developer, is something I should be doing more...

Dual 40's (Kadrons), so that'll be good!

jamiesc ·

yeah that would be i have 40mm webbers on mine just when you build your engine up dont baby it like a stock engine
of youll flood the engine easier ive dont that a few times lolz

SebastienPeek ·

Aha trust me, I know.

With the EMPI 34's on her at the moment, it is either flat or not.
Which is fun, and loud, and it makes her sound like a tractor...

jamiesc ·

haha yeah so true reminds me of my old rx7
