Gary Taylor Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 So hoping to beat any travel restrictions plus the fact I was alone, I had arranged to collect the new project so food and drinks with me I collected my new project and an engine/ box. Alas on the way home a puncture on the trailer wrecked the wheel and hub , so on the side of the road I called Autoaid ( it’s me who’s covered so doesn’t matter if it’s the Audi or the westy) in 55 minutes they had the trailer on the truck and delivered to the house in remote Scotland an hour after I was home. So a big thanks to all involved at Autoaid. And I can’t fault their service BUT now I’ve a new project and can’t get to the garage, time to order some carbon bits 😃 Stay safe everyone 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonWest - Chris Broster - Bristol & Bath AO Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Phew that could of been awkward if they hadn't recovered it home! Always good to order Carbon, therapeutic too, though I expect the Carbon Wizards are being inundated with like minded 'isolated' types... Any clues as to what the new 'Project' is....it needs a NAME!

Gary Taylor Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Any clues as to what the new 'Project' is....it needs a NAME! on the basis my white ones called “tommy” after dad it’s quite apt that this one especially after this auspicious start should be after mum, sooooo simply MBT mums initials but also a family joke of “more b......... trouble” lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Taylor Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Pictures will follow but not a lot to show other than very little room in the garage lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Taylor Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Ok a couple of teasers, when I got home and some black bodywork..... obviously once I can get into the garage there will be some tunnel mouth mods to take the Mazda box, then replace some of the aluminium with carbon ordered some nice deep dish 13” rims too, they didn’t do them in gold so once they’re here and I can get out they’ll be off to get sorted lol that’s about it for now, but there are a few things in my head (and that’s a dangerous place) but they’ll wait until I get started proper 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
