the show is called my derralict dream home. it is pretty much like grand designs but on a sky living and without the massive budgets that those projects have. it was meant to air in July this year but only 4 of the 15 projects have moved in. its nice to be in but still loads to do. i'll give...

don't i know it mate. i have a guy who washes my golf at work every tuesday. by the time i drive home on friday it is covered with whatever coloured dust ICI have churned out that week. Orange, Red, and Green so far

My friend from Chester has a joke that usually gets mentioned every time I see him I once had a girlfriend who asked me to kiss her where it smells I took her to runcorn :)

Here is my new drive to inspire me on to finish the bus. it took a lot of digging, we even replced the main water feed to the house and layed new drains while it was dug out but that memory is now distant

well its been a while since my last confession :( the bus is still in its tent round the back of my workshop. no progress has been made on it since the waxoiling other than popping to see stu down at midland paintworks to treat my bus to a stainless steel beltline trim 8) i really need to...

never :( and its beginning to piss me off

yes mate they fit with a standard width beam. nafe on here runs a set with 205 40 17s on i think. the ones in the pic are running 165 40 17 for a bit of stretch with a ce narrowed beam and wagons west dropped spindles and 25mm adapters.

looks good mate. its nice to see some progress. :D

another great idea would be, instead of simple adjusters on a beam replace the central spring retainer with a sprocket and drive it up and down with a motor driven worm screw. then you could run quality sport suspension shocks etc but have the adjustability to raise it up for speed bumps, fields...

the best idea would be if someone could produce a bag system that allows the beam to be lowered or raised into the bus (ie moving the position that the beam bolts to the bus) then the geometries would remain the same as the rod and travel etc would stay fixed. come on guys, it can't be the hard ;)

I think its getting aired next July. It basically follows 15 different house owners doing up their dream homes It's a one hour long show per house so quite in depth. No money in it, you just get a nice dvd of your house build.

its been a while since i posted on my thread but i actually did something to my bus last weekend :shock: every time i speak to Nelly he asks me if i have "waxoiled my bus yet" sadly the answer was always no :( . Well last weekend Nelly came up to Nottingham and helped me do it, well if im...

putting ealry high bids in just encourages otheer folk to bid you up. or even worse, allow the seller to log on as their mum and play the daring game of guessing your highest bid and bidding you up to your max. i am a last ten seconds kinda guy. on holiday, at work, at traffic lights, havin a...

zero miles in over 6 years :( only did about 100 miles in it when i first bought it to get it home. saying its a slow burner would be an under estimate. back on it next year though it owes me too much not to.

saw them at reading 1998 and have to admit the won me over. they were fantastic. looking at when he was born, that was only ten years before me :shock: that is no age. why does a good guy die young when there's pleny of **** bags who drag it on for years? real shame.

cheers guys. the graft is continuing on the house. i'll chuck the odd pic on every now and then as it progresses. the bus might get round there soon. i did do something car related today tho. had to scratch the itch. managed to find all the paint codes of all the other colours of...
