Stainless backbox for Bongo Bus?!!
Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this but....
Just before chrimbo, the back box fell off the Bongo bus. It was in the middle of the moors on the M42, pouring with rain and blowing a hooly and I
had the 156 on a trailer following close behind. I couldn't be ar5ed to stop so it dragged along the road all the way home. I took it off and
wanged it in a hedge back where it gave me no more trouble. It wasn't too loud as there was still a middle box and a turbo to hush things. The
middle box fell off last night in Leeds. Whilst I was towing a trailer carrying another Alfa. By the time I got home, I was deaf. My eyes were
watering and I had a horrific headache. It's time for a new chimney....
I can get the stainless tube and bends but a backbox?? I had considered just using a cheap mild steel one as it will still last for a while but then I
spotted these....

Less than £30? At that price its got to be worth a go.

When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box
