Got my truck working again with help from lots of people off here and ebay.

Thanks to DingNing for the new Roll bar and Savage_25 for the new rims and tyres.

The cooling head, although second hand was a freebie from Maxpower12.

Cheers to DipMyStick for the new Spur and 3 shoe clutch also the bit of rubber tubing on the exaust.

Got a new tank off ebay for 3 quid to peplace my old ex army hip flask creation.

And no thanks to the ebay member who ripped me off with a new set of bulkhead braces that never arrived.

So i made my own.

Thanks again all those involved in the rebuild. Cheers
 
Glad to see your truck is running, and I hope you left that ebay user a very nasty feed back.

You should let us know who it was so no one on this forum will deal with him.
 
If that coupler isn't silicone, it will melt. I tried using fuel line for a 1:1 car and the rubber got all melty... just an FYI.

If it's silicone, the hose clamps will cut their way through it. I tried the same thing.
 
Thats some pretty rigged up poop. I wouldnt be showing people that pic of that bulkhead brace. Thats just brutal!!
 
Now that's just mean... IMHO, what you don't have... make! What you can't make, try to make anyway. If it gets you through a weekend, then it's worth it, regardless what it looks like.

BTW, I have some stuff like that on my truck as well.
 
I wasn't being mean, just honest. I know on our bash days I rig some poop up!! But I dont leave it that way. I like a little show........
