Washing machine???

We have an old washing machine that doesnt work. I dont think it will be be big enough for any body work but before it goes in the skip, would the metal be usefull for anything on my car?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I'm using the metal from the side to make an airbox, well trying anyway!

Use the Stainless drum to make a cover for the silencer. Its shiny and full of holes for a nice heatshield.

Just a thought.

Happy New Year

the panels should be large enough for under bodywork panelling e.g. underneath engine

Concrete block in the bottom might be handy as a wheel chock to save leaving the handbrake on

Motor might be useful as a reverse drive for those with incomplete gearboxes

Or if you fancy something a little lighter weight than a pinto, you could always put the concrete block in the engine bay....?!
