Had big ideas for the Carlton to get it ready for a roadtrip down to Brizzle tomorrow, inlcluding new wheels, coilovers, different bumpers, detailed trim etc. However i've managed a fail of epic proportions and will now be travelling in a bone stock car ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) Wheels - Got them refurbished fine, went to fit tyres and 2 of them are knackered. Luckily they guy I got them off will swap them, but not till Sunday Coilovers - Bodies welded together but inserts shot so need to save up for new ones Different Bumpers - Snapped both bolts holding the brackets on so need to drill those out, and my drill is broken. Detailed trim - Paint has reacted on every bit so needs doing again. Have some EPIC WIN to get started ![](http://image.rodandcustommagazine.com/f/hot-rod-news/drag-racing-celebration/8284113+cr1+re0+ar1/funny-car.jpg) ![](http://secure.dickharrell.com/catalog/images/P1010208.jpg) ![](http://image.chevyhiperformance.com/f/chevrolet-news/procharger/12129594+cr1+re0+ar1/mark-micke-jeff-dickey.jpg) ![](http://image.mustang50magazine.com/f/miscellaneous/a-little-something-from-the-different-file/18304125+cr1+re0+ar1/donald-and-amanda-longs-05-mustang-gt-outlaw-drag-radial-car.jpg) Matt

Matt, can you enlarge the pics a little bit? I want to see the balls on that canary in the tree behind the grandstand next to the timing tower....

Bums, it'll all come together though. If you need a drill, just gimme a ring and pop round, i know it isn't a huge help, but mine is sat doing nowt ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Oh, and Brizzle? is that the drifting show? I was talking to a mate I haven't seen in a while, seems he's a semi-pro drifter with a pair of white RB26DETT powered SX's with 'crisp tuning' in the sunstrips. Look out for him while your there ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

For curse word sake, no ones put the man down, if anything Norms comment would have him rolling on the floor...
Chill out!
To add my own bit of fail, after repeated warning about how low my car was and the fear of the exhaust being removed without my liking, i was driving down a lane the other night, hit a pebble or summat, lots of scraping, got out to find my exhaust wrapped solid around the live axle, in the dark, in a lane... Good times!
