Just taken a Peek at my Percy

18 months I reckon since I wrote him off as needing a new chassis. A chassis I just couldn't afford at the time... or now as a toy play thing.

Prompted by a thread on the MC forum and piccys of repair to chassis I wouldn't entertain fixing I went out and prodded my Percy. I mean it was warm and sunny so why not. (We've all done it!)



The good news is he looks like he has another 10 years in him yet. I just need to do some plating on the chassis and fix this replacement v8 in which I aborted when I glanced at the hole in the chassis on a cold wet day 18 months ago which I prodded through with my finger.



Buggerit... no excuses now......

Strange how things seem achieveable once the sun comes out isn't it. I had a similar thought while checking the levels on RRC TDi. I reckons its the prospect of lying on your back in the cold and dark in the middle of November that makes it "beyond repair".

I plan to carry out a scientific experiment by see> 18 months I reckon since I wrote him off as needing a new chassis. A chassis
