Keyser Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The Zed was parked in the garden with care, Look in the Shed two waiting workers were there. The children had risen up early from their beds, On the floor lay a V6 engine stripped down to the heads. Restless they were to continue the task, But no engine arrived so they just stood aghast. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the shed to see what was the matter. A black VW polo came into sight What had we done to deserve such delight With a little young driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it could not be St Nick. More rapid than eagles from Dorchester he came, Not St Nick but Laid Back Luke was his name No engine had he brought for us this day Keyser and Buster had no reason to let him stay Then from the boot like magic they did appear krispy kreme doughnuts you can stay have no fear. So no real update – we did fix a TPS problem on “The Bitch†Luke helped strip the ancillaries off the old engine Then lots of doughnuts, car talk and general abuse Finger crossed for something a bit more substantial tomorrow like an Engine!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N13GEY Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hi guys. I'm a new recruit to the group. I've been recommended to drop in to the Shed to pick the brain cells as to purchase of the "right" Zed. I'm in the Bournemouth area and understand you are too. Do you have an address and contact number so I can fix up to meet? Thanks, Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. But down at the Zed Shed celebrations were rife As Luke's 350z roared back to life! Whoop Whoop Well the engine arrived at 1pm all ancillaries moved over gearbox oil changed car back together and a test drive at 8pm Not bad Seems fine so far (fingers crossed) Luke is on his way home in her now and will hopefully text me to let me know all went well on the drive back. I'll get some pics uploaded tomorrow in the mean time, this Christmas Tale seems to have a Happy ending and we would just like to say Happy Christmas to all Forum Members From The Zed Shed Crew 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
