Because realistically to sell my 90 it needs to be clean, i've taken the drastic step (on advice of others) to remove all off-road bits and get her spangley again.
So, off with the steering guard, diff guards, rock/tree sliders and BFG-MT's and back to stock sills and original road tyres.
Boy does she look odd!! Going to be jet washed and if nessecary steam cleaned and then off to the body shop to be polished and tarted up - i hope someone buys her soon cos i'm now toy-less and its no fun having a 4x4 i need to keep clean and sparkley.
-
No secret laning now then :wink:
What are you doing wit all the parts?
Are they going on the next car?
:D
-
If someone offers me silly money then i sell them, otherwise they go on the next one i buy (hopefully not too far away!)
-
Then why bother getting another? every time you swap motors you are putting cash into someone else's pockets and possibly buying into someone else's problem motor too.

Because using an 04 plate CSW for comps and challenges is silly, when i need an older, less valuable truck cab!
-
so you wont be selling any bits ?
-
Depends if someone offers me enough money to make it worth my while, i'm not in any great rush to sell the bits, but would if offered the right ammount!
-
Who are you using for polishing work ?
I may be able to help ther and also selling the parts if you decide to.
I know a fair few folk in the DORSET area who own 90/110 and go playing. :wink:

A chappy down Sterte road in poole, was reccomended to me by a bodyshop, seeems to do good work and at a good price too, whats even better is he recons he can bring her up to mint condition again.
-
Bullfrog - do you know anywhere or anyone who will come and steam clean or high pressure hot wash the chassis and engine etc to make it actually look clean again as i'm finding the home jetwash and petrol station ones are crap at really shifting the dirt.
-
For underbody washes check with some commercial vehicle places, they have to have their wagons cleaned for the plating certificate (MOT), so they would either have the facilities or recommend one for you
-
i can do underbody washes at work :D
-
save some cash and get some pound shop t cut and some soft cloth and start rubbing you will be surprised how clean she will come up and fairly scratch free shouldn't take long
