The post is a big one so keep looking, some of the work is really shoddy.

The ground out lines in the combustion chambers are to enhance the mixtures path to the sparkplugs...

yeah right


Between about page 7 and 12 theres not much, but the images come in thick and fast after that.

Horrific

To tackle removing a complete dash from an EVO, and refitting it requires some skill without doubt...

His engineering prowess is lacking though, his paintwork is horrendous.

Hahaha page 64 (though the 'work' isn't from the main subject of the thread)

I couldn't believe that someone would take an angle grinder to a clutch and then photo it as an example of their great work

Loved it when the comeback was "you guys are jealous"!

fair play for having a go, but you have to admit to yourself that when your rubbish at something, there's no point in trying! but having said that, that thread has to be one of the funniest threads i've read in a long while,

"step away from the TIG Welder!" Class!





I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!

Fair enough to have a go, but to charge people money to ruin their cars...?

Lol yeah I'm real jealous that my car will still beat yours at the lights after all the work you've done because mine runs...

I just love it when people that have no idea think they're experts

I actually started laughing out loud when I viewed this link!

Then I nearly re-decorated my screen with coffee when I saw the photos on page 64!

Proper priceless stuff!

Finally seen someone who's welding is worse than mine Mind you there's something almost artistic about that manifold.
