Re: [All] [Generic] IMOC Stickers

just an idea,

rim decals (left cheek, lol). small ones, IMOC.CO.UK

or a IMOC template, like the rising sun emblem/logo, but as a template, so it can be sprayed to panel work/parts/my frineds fraud escort
(maybe a couple of diff sizes?)

Re: [Mk2] [NA] oily alternator - common fault?

Re: [Mk2] [NA] clunking/metallic noise from rear of car

spot on lads, that was exactly what i was hoping to hear. most of the time a head gasket/rocker cover/cam cover gaskets are a daunting prospect. due to the support from you guys i am gonna attack it myself. gonna grab it by the conrods and rebuild the whole thing. budget of about 700, so forged inte...
