FUCKING CUNTING TWATTING BASTARD COCK SUCKING FUCKING OVAL OF MINE............................

Or i should say the preivous owner WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 105441

WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 105441

After spending an age on deciding on wether to keep or sell my Oval, i finally started the strip down today................................
After getting the 4 wings off i found a fucking miriad off fucking bodges and hidden fucking wonders on her......... WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 105441

Fucking heater channels need replacing, in some parts it looks like some cunt has put fucking BODY FILLER to hide any holes/rot WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... Icon_rolleyes

The rear fucking quarter panel where the wing fits has sooooooooooooo muich fucking filler in it its cunting unreal WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... Icon_rolleyes

It has had a serious bodge job done under it all.
Im fucking bouncing at the minute and toooooooooooooooooo fucking angry to go any further as i most probably would take a fucking sledge hammer to the cunting fucking thing WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 105441

Im hoping she aint as bad as i think or it looks like i may have to consider SCRAPPING her WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 867842

WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 867842

Im gonna take a few days to calm down before i get back into her to see how bad she is..
If i ever get my fucking hands on the cunt that did this i will personally dip his fucking bollox in boiling fucking oil untill they blister and burst and then i will make the cunt eat them WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 105441

I'm the type of guy that considers himself to be totally honest and trustworthy and just couldnt and wouldnt consider fucking some one over.
Thank fuck i DID decide to keep her or else some other poor sod would have ended up with this after parting with their hard earned dosh and thinkin what a cunt i am!!!!

Looks like im in for a fucking long resto now,thankfully there ISNT a panel on a beetle i have not changed before so at least i know what im doing and up against!!! Guess my fucking BIG engine is out the window now WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... Icon_rolleyes

I dont even know where to start looking for panels for Ovals WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... Icon_rolleyes

Don't scrap it!!

At least if you're doing that much work on it, it won't be 'original' as such anymore, therefore it won't matter if you go against the grain and put a fuck off lump in it Very Happy

Do it!! and good luck!!

That was my response when I asked the guy if he had upgraded the brakes and he said no it's still on drums!

To be fair, they are all new and when I test drove it it wasn't half as bad as I expected, pretty much breaks on par with my golf! I will be upgrading in the near future hopefully!

so long as drum brakes are kept serviced they are fine to be honest but you cant beat disc brakes even if its just cos you knows they are there WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 77324

There are little tinkering bits I need to do to it, like lower it more and remove the AE stickers and the girl racer sticker off the back.....

Drum brakes are fine serviced on a bug giving out below 80bhp but you really do want them above that.
Brake fade is big issue if your braking hard from a fast speed WARNING SERIOUS RANT thread do NOT enter if easily offended........... 77324

I'v only got myself to answer to, it's cracking Very Happy

I'v already got a list of little bits and bobs to do, like lowering it down a bit more if the pipes etc underneath will allow!

I knows, I need to save pennies to buy the parts then I'll get onto, I want to do it myself to save on labour costs etc. I would have thought I'll be braking hard from a fast speed......especially on the strip......
