  • lakes tour freshen up

    yesterday (thursday 30/3 ) i desided to pull the owd smoker estate into the garage for a quick freshen up, i thought ive got 5 week to dress it up a bit before the lakes,, maybe a quick service and the odd patch for the looming mot,,the first 2 pics are from yesterday,,and then the sh-t hit the fan as i got a bit of grinder rage,,, the rest of the pics are whats left today oops ,,, and the clocks ticking

                    this is were iam upto with the owd smoker,it needed a bit more of a freshen up than i thought,,(more like a restoration) its had front panel, inner and outer sills ,A panels ,lower rad support, and repair on back 1/4 lower panels, its all solid now,,, ive put compression struts on it and tramps and a panard at the back,, with a 4.1 tranx with 30/30 ramp angles (for tryin a bit of driftin) , not that sure about the lakes now
