My poor old capri!

Post by andrewg1323 »

Moved it for the first time in 6 months today poor little beasty
This is how it sat

Well ok now its got even more dirt on it!
Had to put the front wheels on from underneath! Then to move it forward i had my old man in his 60's pushing whilst i was inside haning out the sunroof with one foot on the steering wheel and my hands pulling the car along using the corner of my house!

Cars now forward about 6 foot so i can jack the arse end up for rich to nab a bracket at the weekend!---------------

that youve used the bin lid and barrel to spray paint on! my garden kinda has those marks too (mostly due to my bro though!)

good work.Image

"Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car.
"Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car.
"Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence.
"Torque" is how far you take the fence with you.
