Hiya chaps
Left the cab uncovered for about 6 months .. i really think it was a bad idea !
Ended up drilling a hole in the floor to let it out , then found a rubber bung i could remove :(
Removed the seat , drilled another hole in the floor
The unbloted the seat belt anchor , and found another bung :(
so now i have 4 holes in the floor , 2 of which shouldnt be there ! LOL
Took out the ABS Ecu(s) and the main ecu
took them to my dad and blew them dry with the compressor
they look ok , no corrosion on them - so might have either
1 - caught it in time
2 - the water didnt get that deep
all fun and games eh .. i must take the "project dry roof" to the next level ASAP :D
Stu
And you the inventor of the 96p car cover too. Tsk tsk.
yeah i am , but have left it off for 6 months
currently looking at making the daddy of all covers
have a budget of about £30 ish to pull it off , if it works it will be a stroke of GENIUS :D
and it should last a life time
infact its a copy of what mazda sold years ago - but finding on is rare as hell !
Stu
you can spend that 96p on some more bungs then - fill in your swiss cheese floor ;)
Going back to serious - I would paint some protection on those holes if I was you - don\'t want your floor pan going rusty.
yeah thats one of the next plans to be honest :D
How about fixing the gear box?

I still think shooting a hole in the floor like Top gear suggested is better :P

I have a diving board you could have to go with the car if you like!
How about a spare auto box Carl?
Or a watchtower?
