what has happened to your donor?

this is a post just for a bit of fun, lets get away from all the techie talk and see for a bit of a laugh what has happened to your donor. whether you are finished with your donor or still ripping it to pieces get some photos up to see wots wot! i'll start....

the other day dad and i were walking through B & Q and i happen to glance into the power tool section, angle grinder on special offer..... dad said i bet you could have some fun with one of those! quietly chuckling to myself, i said to dad, well lets get one i might need one in the near future.

my new toy

three days later and look at the fun that ive had.........



dad just laughed his head off! well i supposed ive got to get it all down the tip now!

The price of scrap is pretty good at the moment , shouldn't cost too much to get it collected by a scrappie . And safer seeing, Liam's piccie

Yep, scrappies are giving about £40/tonne for scrap steel at the moment. So most will pick up for free.

Looks like you lot had fun anyway!

So why did buying an angle grinder make the pikies abandon their camp in your back garden?

I did that to an xr3i that I once had, weapon of choice air chisel .Then took it up the tip in the wife’s fiesta

Couldn’t be bothered with the sierra I just put it on axle stands and had it taken. The whole street turned out to watch, I wouldn’t have minded but it was only on the drive for a week

My donor - which I haven't actually seen yet - is sitting in the yard of a transport / plant hire form. I'll be going up there in a week or two, tipping it on it's side with the forklift and taking out the steering, back axle and gearbox. They can keep the rest...

There is also a 2.3 diesel Sierra there which I can have the diff from if I want it...
