    [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I know your pain......I own and have owned some cars that I've never even driven...(I've got 10 at the moment )...I owned a 3000e capri that I restored and never even bothered to drive. .....I think my attention span is tiny and my ideas run away...

    Nearside headlight

    The story of Toothless Mike

    Alloys and help

    Here's an example of centre bore diffence: I think k10 is 59mm (correct me if I'm wrong) and my wellers are 70mm .....you can see the gap between them needs bridging or the alignment could be woeful....that's where spigot rings come in. Obviously if the centre bore is smaller then you have...

    Nearside headlight

    Anyone got a nearside headlight for a facelift '91 K10. Ideally in good nick, mines got a hole in it and I may as well sort it as I'm doing everything else. Let me know if you can help, and how much you want for it. Thanks, Shane Sent from my SM-A300FU using Micra Sports Club mobile app

    The story of Toothless Mike

    So today, refinished the grill and after sanding I gave it a few coats of paint.....it looks ace. The Nissan logo on the nearside is missing so I thought of something to cover up the hole. A little bit of old plastic from a washing powder container some make and do and I had a neat removable...
