I'm Lost Without Her...
« on: July 15, 2004, 15:53:48 »
For those of you who don't know already, my 90's been moth-balled for 3 months whilst I save up for her new chassis.

I'm lost without her, I'm getting withdrawal symptoms already, the yearning is getting hard to take, I need help. :cry:

Can anyone offer any advice, I need a good agony aunt.

No. Ollie was almost as upset as me when we moved her to her resting place. Nan's Garage, where she'll stay till I fix her.

It was a fine line (and still is) between fixing or scrapping the whole 90. I've basically got a sound nearside chassis rail but a rotton o/s rail. It neads at least a 12" section refabricating and to do this the rear tub etc will have to come off.

I/we thought that by the time I'd done that and thrown money at it just to get it through the MOT, I might as well do a proper job and give her a new galv chassis. Who knows what will eventually happen, only time will tell.

So shotgun it is for a while  :?

Phil

I see a name change has occurred. Is this due to the lack of mudplugging itself? Will you change it back when winter sets in ?

Oh, the deliberation continues. The wife wants a Disco so the kids can join in. Anyone want a 90 with a knackered chassis but a fabulous G4 interior ? All looks and no legs, tut.
