[Panky]

[martin maltas]

Thanks Guys and Dolls, love the low jokes. Just got back from Santapod, great weekend, now I do have some silly ideas

 

[commeracer]

tell us more martin, top fuel pb perhaps [?]

"you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"

 

[paulfordy]

Maybe 'parachute' assisted braking system? (PBS)

 

[martin maltas]

Counting down to the big dip. 4 days to go. Lets hope I get something back after all the hard work [}]

 

[commerchris]

There has to be it's the only one of it's mark left [8D] think positive Martin,& make sure they know it's rarer than hens teeth [^]

 

[Panky]

What is the procedure for the dip? Acid bath then neutralise I would guess but do they apply any protective coating afterwards, it wouldn't take long for corrosion to form otherwise [:0]

 

[commerchris]

Do you have to copy the lettering from the side of the van before dip [?]

 

[martin maltas]

Gets full electrostatic coating after the dip. Supposedly the industries best 10 year salt protection [:0]
Yes, I have to copy all the lettering, before it dissapears for all time

 

[Panky]

If it doesn't see any salt should last forever, well at least 11 years [^]

 

[martin maltas]

Hopefully, it will outlast me

 

[Panky]

Well you restore one detector van you've restored them all (literally) [8D]

 

[paulfordy]

I think you should tackle the butchers van next Martin..

 

[martin maltas]

That could involve a bit of butchering

By the way, anybody going to the show tomorrow [?] We could meet up as Commerades

 

[Panky]

So does that mean you would have to sort out the ambulance by accident [?]

 

[Panky]

Can't make it to the NEC myself but my bosses boss has been given permission by his boss (The Wife)to go and spend an undisclosed sum on a classic [:0]. He will be flying down the M6 with a trailer and a wad of cash, lucky bu**er

 

[martin maltas]

I could sell him a Commer or two [8D]

 

[Debs]

Couldnt see you parting with any of your babies[:0][:0][:0]

 

[Panky]

He's actually into old tractors, I think he's got three. Last time I spoke he was looking at Minor Travellers [^]
