dougie77 789 Posted August 30, 2014 Well the strip out of the old beacon has begun tell you what it didn't want to come out as the car was pretty fucking bent We had to take the gearbox and the bell off cause the car was squashed around them but all seams to be ok. Tomorrow the teardown of the new one starts with any luck should be running by tomorrow night 5 XES, Mixalis, PH351 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
