Yea, I just hadn't got round to bracing the front end up before today. In front of the gas tank you can see the angle iron bracing I fitted in, using the M12 bolts from the headlamps to secure in position. I wanted to get that done before I started cutting away what little there was of the front end.

Relocated my indicators and my horn, and then just attacked with the sawzall. Was certainly the most nerve racking cut of them all, cutting the front end off the car, but definitely looking much better now that's for sure.

Ah, I know what a reciprocating saw is and now understand the coloquiolism thanks to the translation ;-)

Sir, My understanding does no extend as far as colonial gibberish!
I have kleptomania,
But when it gets bad,
I take something for it.

Technology old chap. its just as well the indigenous inhabitants did not have it or Sioux,Navajo or Cree might be our language of choice instead of Romanian or Polish.
Anyway Dom seeing as they seem to have let you out how the devil are you and is you back any worse have you tried Gabapentin yet ?it has got rid of the pains in my legs that ran from my lower back and down the side of my legs but it has done sod all for the spine pain!
