As suggested by Tb ;) I duly contacted Andy C and purchased Vx thermostat and transfer pipe this arrived bang on the day and perfect condition :y Its quite clear from the way items where packaged Andy went the extra mile. So many thanks for that Mr AndyC :y
Now I ll see if this sorts the Temp issues, before moving onto punching large holes in ye old bank account, ie suspension rebuilds :oevery time I say that it HURTS! :'(
-
AndyC's OmegaB parts sales must be soaring because of OOF :D
-
He's a good egg :y :y
Fortunately for me he is only 50 miles away and somewhere I need to visit for business occasionally so I tend to use him for all my Vx parts requirements :y
I do tend to buy in bulk though ::)

As alot of the guys are aware of my suspension headache, in a nut shell Its Knacker :'( Ive been chating to Andy about costing the bits,but in the conversation he was saying my chassis No was showing on his system as Cop car :o surely not for a start its black with full cloth recaro

GM springs are quite pricey, even at Tradeclub prices. Shocks aren't too bad.
Trouble is, likes of KYB don't seem to last that well, IME

Having recently found a letter T buried down the side of the seat ie. V6 T me thinks that was stuck on the boot at some stage of the Migs life and as such the C--p was driven out it,hence the state of suspension, but not by the Boys in Blue

I have to rate Mr C as well. I phoned him the other day for some washer jets for the LC. If I go to my local dealer and ask for Carlton parts the parts guys look at me like I've got two heads. not the case with Mr C. Two jets found in Germany and on there way to me!!!
Lovely. :y :y

I always wanted and ex cop car, as Im from N Ireland use to dream about ex R.u.c Mk5 20ltr ford Cortinas they looked amazing once the bullet proof glass + amour plating was removed ;D you certainly would nt break them springs ;) but dad would let me have one some to do with driving up the falls road ;D
-
You might have got up there in one piece,but you wouldnt have got back down. ::) ;D
-
Its good that you know of this infamous place :y
-
Been there many times.Born and lived in Belfast,but came across the sea at the end of my teens. :y
I was a regular visitor to the Royal Victoria hospital (at the top of the Falls Rd.)as a kid,as I was even more accident prone then than I am now.
Moved from Rathcoole to East Belfast at the end of primary school,and then spent half my teen years in the Ulster hospital. ;D ;D
I believe they once discussed renaming ward 5 (fracture ward) in my honour. :D ;D
-
Then you will of heard tell of the place Twinbrook, nicked named The Planet of the Apes. Why Well, you could always tell who the Joy riders where, because after Knee Capping they all seemed to develop a funny walk ;D ;D
-
Oh yes,Im well aware of twinbrook.As you say,half the population had a serious limp. ;D
How did we get from AndyC to Twinbrook ? ::) :D
