Got a joke you want to share? Or a picture so hilarious you have to show someone or you'll die? Share here but keep it (relatively) clean!

It's not as simple as just adding a pic....
But I'll add it to the list of things that can wait for when I have 5 mins as I have much more important things to do at the moment.

Well done Davo. You've been ferretting around for sometime now, and you hit the jackpot.
When I work on my cars I used empty marg. containers, plastic bags and boxed them in groups.
Boot & bonnett. Front doors. Rear. Dash. Front lights. Rear. Interior etc. Cleaned up all screw threads.
That's a tedious job. But. End result is full satsfaction that the screw or bolt isn't going to break when reused.
By the way. Mentioning breaking bolts. Buy yourself a cheap tap & die set. Clean all the threads as rust builds up
while the car is standing and any paint overspray gets into everything. Found also that at times you undoo a bolt
the thread picks up and jams it. The "up north GT" may still have a few donor parts. Going by your pictures, maybe not.
You know where it is.

Have fun.

Dave.
