Re: Re:

Just found this thread again... The other caliper half will be on it's way soon, let me know if you need any other bits too!

Foz !

As you can see it cleaned up a treat and looking good with some fresh paint
No idea if it actually works :facepalm: but it sure looks the part


Thanks for your help - really appreciate it especially when I’ve raced past Myteenageself in his England v Germany show down I’ll need to good anchors to slow me down

Re: Re:

Stunning..

Cheers, it’s slowly coming together- although you could argue there was nothing wrong with it in the first place

Just needed a bit of titillation

oooooo yeah, matching wheels too

Re:

nice wheels ^^ but MOST folk would just put you down as a pretentious tosser if you turned up in a 911 with an MTB strapped to the roof -

That said I'd take the risk especially if you could make an entrance like Regans dude with his Dale and getting the front wheel out of the front of that car is also way cool.

If I had the money I always thought I'd buy a really tidy Lancia HF Integrale, But that 1997 - 911 isn’t too shabby and I suppose I could be drawn into compromising a bit

Re:

Slow progress at the Mo

found a period "like for like" saddle to replace the very faded - was black once upon a time ! , so we're looking a little sharper and the missing logo/decal has been reinstated. It took a while to find one without scuffs, just need to soak with one with leather cream now to soften the leather up.

Re:

Foz came good on the other Magura - This one’s got matching drill holes for the lines so without delay it got the same treatment as the other one- I now have a master and the slave or Left and right if you prefer.



how it arrived after a quick clean - well worn but all there Foz is dah man







as its been said many a time before Nitro Mors is pants these days so put plenty on... to little effect :| but before that found two bolts to plug the holes up with




after two goes this was as good as it got - there was once a time where Nitro Mors burnt your skin like H2 SO4




and after a date with a wire brush... just awaiting a de-grease and etch primer





and heres the reason for wanting to repaint this would be facing outwards after being swapped left to right ....

Re:

Looking good . We'll have to compare notes when you put your decals on. As I'm a bit nervous about cocking mine up
