First Puma I've seen with the screen down!
Looks Ace, where did you get the hinges?


Cheers! Although as has been said its not an actual Puma - its an older V8 that I've recently refurbed. Craddock's do the hinges and I can't think why they would not be a straight swap for the later fixed item.

PS. Nice Series! Thumbs Up

Spent all weekend scarifying the grass to remove thatch, weeds and moss, then pruned overhanging trees to try to prevent future moss ..... Then trip to Ellesmere Port tip with every 1Te bag I own full of ranches and grass rakings.

My lawn has a ruddy stream running underground - it always needs cutting. Mind you it is also always very green and soft.

I usually have to cut it from late Jan to early Dec - no peace at all Big Cry

What a crap day
Turbo hose blew on near side under manifold (smaller of the three inter-cooler hoses )
So decided to replace all the hoses with Silicone ones from Pete (BAS)

All I can say is AAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH
- taking the air filter box was was a nightmare
carried out air box mod and removed the fan thing
- Fitting OS inter-cooler hose and refitting the mid way support bracket - NIGHTMARE and needs extra par of hands
- putting air box back in a BIGGER nightmare

never ever again will I do this

Placebo effect of the air box mod and silicone hoses ZERO

Hand bleeding and ingrained with dirt/oil - now having bottle of Crushed Port to unwind
