Dum-Dums Stage 2 HDi Estate Project

[Dum-Dum]

October 2011


Its funny how when you get a quote from the welders you always end up thinking its a bit steep and then when the parts are done and you see the quality of the workmanship its always beautiful and suddenly the money dosent matter and its a shame to be hiding the parts buried in the engine bay.

Anyway £120 got me these.









And Ive been having a play with my pipe beader that they made me and its doing a great job, glad i went for 10" long handles as its hard work.







And Ive made a take off for a boost gauge out of a brake nipple, Ive got a few more of these if people want them and will sell them on for £2 each or £3 if i modify them (inside bored out to 3.5mm, pointy end removed and whole thing shortened then given a rubber washer and ptfe tape so theres no leaks). The pic is before and after.
