My dads old volvo had scaffold pole for exhaust and wher it met the original exhaust it had a cut up fosters can clamping it all togeather. Passed its mot like that aswell.
Had bumpers ziptied on and exhaust held with cable and the lot lol. Gotta get creatitive when youve not got anything to do it propa lol
Jonny that was my idea even though you did the work.
Ash he may of bodged the zorst but it fell off after a week, I have re bodged it and have a more long term bodge planned when i can be bothered but its holding for now and you know what they say. "Theres nothing so permanent as a temporary repair"
My fuel line popped of nearly 400 miles from home when I went to Cornwall on holiday.
The only thing I had with me was some crabbing line, bish bash Bosch and we were away!
And also at FCS I bought a green cotton panel filter, went to put it on before the parade lap and I'd lost a bolt from the bonnet catch! Couldn't find a replacement so hammered in a cheapo torx bit from my universal screwdriver.

My whole cars a bodge, headlights lenses cabletied on, lights are siliconed into the slampanel. engine wiring loom is all quickclipped together, snapped wheelnut is siliconed on, as dum dum mentioned my bumpers in with wingnuts but that's not a bodge more for easy access. Battery tray is held in with the battery alone as the nuts rusted so had to grind the bottom out. I lost the backing plates from the brake pads so just left them so not the pads rattle in the caliper and vibrate like a bastard under braking. Rear axle end bracket was held up with a seat bold at one point
Exhause is held on by a series of jubilee clips onto the towbar also

The best had to be my DT with a different box when I had no cable for it, which was a piece of electric fencing wire, shoved into a chocolate electric connection block and clamped down, which I shoved through the air con drip grommet, which hung out of the dashboard, so when you needed reverse, you yanked on the cable and she dropped right in. Stayed like that for like 3 months until I turned the gearbox oil silver... lol!

Thats some world class springs. Had some like that on a diesle escort. Made it interesting it woz so low you couldnt get over anything and handeld like a pos.
Beached it on a speed bump so just left it and clamed it had been stolen.
Had that car a week and nearly died like 5 times because it handeld that bad.

Definitely not me! Stole it off facebook. Some boys over here weld sockets or washers into their exhaust to give the car that sucking sound. Its pretty much the height of felt spec.
