I just have this one saved on my computer, ill try an get some better pics later [frame][/frame]

I suggest that you look into powder coating. Before you dismiss the idea... I have seen truly excellent shiny silver powder coating. Step back a couple of metres and you would swear it is chrome. Don Ive never seen this done, I dont suppose you have any pictures of how it turns out? Thanks for the ...

I think you best bet is to set up a new thread in the Tech section, youll get feedback alot quicker there :) I have stock breaks so unfortunatly cant advise, I always wanted mariana disks but the conversions are to exspensive for me and long gone are the days you could nip down the scrappy and grab ...

Great to have you on board
More pics!!!!!

Hi everyone,

Has anyone had any experiance getting large items chromed?
Ive approached a few chromers as advertised in the Bumper Chroming thread but they have all said they would not be able to chrome my roof rack due to the size/one piece design.

Any advice?

Hi Guys, Im finally getting round to fitting a radio this weekend.
Both the stereo and the speakers will be out of site under the dash but I was wondering where the best place would be to pull the power from?

Even better, is there a good 'dummies guide' anyone could recommend??

There not too bad, ive been collecting Atari for about 5 years now, the Boxed 2600 Woodie you see on the left of the photo I picked up for a steal off of ebay. I have loads of double games so if there are any collectors out there give me a shout an Ill drop some carts in the post

Arcade machines hold alot of memories for me, i grew up playing them before the home consoles become the thing, i miss the old games so i am in the early stages of building a full size arcade machine, I have a few spare pc monitors and a raspberry pi and a box of buttons and joysticks, I might just...

Just a thought, would it be of interest/use to add a valuation section to the sales area? That way if someone was looking at buying/selling an item but was unsure of value they could ask the community for advice. I also collect vintage Arcade Machines/Pinball Tables and have found this sort of categ...

Mike, If you insist! We have a Metro 'sandwich' type water-cooled oil cooler fitted to our 1380. The water feed is in 5/8" bore hose from the outlet of the heater (Mini core) and is 'always on'. We use Castrol 10W/60 Edge full synthetic oil. With an 88°C water stat all year round, the normal r...

Thanks for all the feedback guys
Looks like this is the way to go!

My Morris 1000 is my day to day car (its the only car I own) and im considering 'upgrading' to an electonic ignition like the one linked below. Over the last few years i must have gone through a dozen condensors and they only seem to pack up in the pitch dark when Im away from home.... I know its no...
