[QUOTE="Mark Fraser, post: 12276, member: 1068"] I am wondering what's the worst vinney bodge you have seen or you have done? When I bought my Comet five years ago I went to check the valve clearances to discover a three inch nail had been skelped into the rocker tunnel :eek:. When I stripped down the rear brakes the previous owner had glued rubber to one of the brake shoes as a replacement for a brake lining Imagine if that had been on the front brake shoes and subsequently parted :eek:. Then their was the home made push rods :rolleyes: As for bodging - None. [/QUOTE]
