I might pop round and offer to empty his garage for him as well, it wouldn’t be going to the tip though😀

I already asked for first dibs on his rear sub-frame!

Forgive me Brian, why would you throw a strop because of what someone has said, have a rethink and come back on board we don’t want too miss your sarcasm and insults.

Cheers.

Rev.
P/S Car still running spot on, thank you.

We're all dooooomed!!! The Yoda of the 75/ZT world is leaving us in the wilderness, might as well just weigh in the car now and save some time lol!

You'll be missed Brian, I hope the guilt doesn't ruin your every waking minute and cause you to come back.

Thank you for all your help Brian. Along with so much other help I have received from so many members on here, it has been very much appreciated and I have been left with my cars being much less hassle to live with thanks to this. Look after yourself.

Unhappy

I've only just seen this thread (and post 11742 and post 11). Brian's knowledge and expertise has helped me on countless occasions so I'd like to say a huge "Thank you" to him. Top man.
