    Thor engine. It’s got blue coolant because that’s all that was available ready-mixed. It’ll be dropped out and replaced with the right spec stuff when all the hoses get replaced.

    P38A Yet another P38 (99 4.6) getting hot under the collar....

    Alright folks, my recently acquired P38A (1999 Thor 4.6) has a nasty habit of blowing water pipes. The previous owner admitted replacing one of the pair of pipes at the top of the engine bay to the bulkhead. The trip home from purchase was uneventful for 75 miles and then it blew the 3-way hose...

    Wanted: 88" Series Basket Case in the SW

    Low hundreds. As a donor vehicle basically, all I'm after are the axles, springs, rear tub, seat box and bulkhead. Anything else is a bonus.

    Project 90 - Bustrucket's Bodged Banger

    So nearly a year later the project moves forwards. The chassis was just too far gone to be salvageable, so I hunted around for a replacement. A TD5 chassis came up at the right price locally, so Trewey and I collected it. Big thanks to him for the lifting, shifting and storing of the chassis...
