I made a 1.8 steel replica of a mk1 Golf and welded it to the front apron. Gonna smash some cats with mine however some cats might smash yours

Any cat smashed is good and worth damaging the chin for...I'm not keen on cats!!!
Thanks for the advice anyway and I'm expecting that it's likely to get damaged/destroyed by low flying objects, the valence panel is not in good nick either so worth the risk.

Also, mines fibreglass so might just shatter with the cat and leave the valence bloodied but still useable.

Hey guys thanks, its been a good build, very happy with it. Still a lot of tuning on the suspension and I think I'll be able to just drive it :=)

On the way into town I got a very bad fuel smell, so when I got home I decided to investigate and
found the leak on the high pressure side of the efi pump. I pulled it out and found the fitting was cracked, sorted that out and bolted it back to find it was still leaking. I found the leak coming out of the positive terminal, crazy, I've never seen it like that before so in the end and $231 later fixed the problem, NEW fuel pump. Damn cheap Chinese crap!!!!!Steer clear, they are SHIT!!!!

Hey guys and gals

well I've been driving round as much as I can and taking it everywhere and I mean everywhere. Here's a few of the fun / troubles I've been getting into haha and Datsuns do get stuck at the river right up to the sills.

On the way to Manfeild on the weekend following a car,its sunroof come off, shot up in the air and smashed on the road.I managed to dodge most of it but part of it went through my window.So once I dodged the on coming car and the truck to keep it on the road (raining as well), I stopped to see the damage. Few more bits of paint gone and a few more dents but we were lucky not to have ended up in the paddock with the cows.
