Re: Forums or Facebook?

Facebook police can be very annoying, with people having their accounts closed for the most ridiculous reason, or non at all, I had mine closed just like that, they said I had broken the guidelines but not which one, so now I keep a low profile.

You can of course set up a new one if you wanted....

Re: Forums or Facebook?

The nice thing is.....you can have both, forums have died off a bit the last few years....but there is so much knowledge and information stored on them, I hope they both carry on.

I guess with Facebook its instant and covers a multitude of sins!

Re: Reduce the tax exemption age petition

As most of my cars are between 30-40 it would save me about £1000 a year!

Re: Bop 92k - back on the road

These things happen, especially on a 50 year old car being driven as a daily....its all fixable, and when done the car will be good for many more miles.

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

She’s in winter slumber now bug popped up to the barn and had her running (started first time as always) and moved it backwards and forward so the clutch doesn’t stick!

Re: no respect!

The knuckle draggers are out there still, only yesterday some smart comments from a guy with a pair of rather large diamante earrings on the Blue Oval Fb page about a marina that was for sale...i was always told, if you have nothing nice to say...im no ford guy but I would never say anything unkind ...

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Finally reassembled the complete new rear bumper for tara, what a difference the new bumpers make.

Need to rebuild the front suspension soon too and fit my telescopics

I do hope it finds a loving home as it will deteriorate quickly if left as is.

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Taken Tara to have the rear wheel bearings done and a oil and filter change plus axle oil in an attempt to stop the droning.

Then it’s on to the front end

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Haha they’re actually there to cover up Where it once had a Towbar. They moved the number plate up and drilled two holes for the plate and cut holes in the valance for the bar! Was a right mess 🤦🏻‍♂️
