Too bored waiting for my ankle to recover - what about this? - Forum Archive

Do you think I could get Chris to rebody a 911 into a ratted Skoda with flared arches and '80s body kit?

WorldClassAccident 25 Feb 2018, 6:55pm

Here is the Barry Boys take on the Skoda. I am thinking box extensions to the wheel arches with the Kellogs logo still showing through the paint etc...

Given the Skoda is bigger in most dimensions and I am not looking for accuracy i think it could work.

Freak the fuck out of the Singer guys :-)

I think they've got your medication wrong.

If you can find a Skoda you’ll be lucky they are all half finished banyan 550’s these days ya ya

Saw the consultant and he said the operation was a success and I should be out of the cast and off the crutches by June.

Picture for you to add amusing comments to

You screwed up again!!!

Wouldn't it have been easier to use a couple of jubilee clips and an exhaust clamp?

I'm surprised that Screwfix had them in stock.

Over here we have an outfitter called "Fastenall". Wonderful.

What size self tappers are those ?

WorldClassAccident 28 Mar 2018, 10:22am

There is a selection of sizes - I guess the surgeon bought a mixed bag of Ti self tappers.

1x80mm
1x50mm
2x40mm
2x30mm

I think he just chucked in what ever came to hand to be honest. Drive in lots of screws from all directions and hopefully a few should hold.

They look like Thunderbolts.

WorldClassAccident 28 Mar 2018, 4:26pm

They took out the big ones they first used

Lucky@LeMans 28 Mar 2018, 5:03pm

I'm sure that if you ask Chris nicely he will take a mould and make you a replica prosthetic that can be bolted and bonded in place.
