not take the head over to OD cars at duncrue?

is it still the red 16v you had from many moons ago?

OD are no longer In Duncrue

2 of the guys from OD are now ODC-Engineering on the green road, brand new unit and all the CNC gear etc. Got a head skimmed very recently and it was top notch

Used Byre Engineering a fair bit, always been dead on for anything I've asked them to do. Head skim is standard fayre for them.

Have also used OD for head work, skimming, and fitting oversized valves they know what they're at in there.

There's really only two places I'd ever go and neither near you. Comiskeys in Portadown, where a lot of places send their stuff anyway, and Ciaran McAloran in Scotch Street.

i had thought od cars had gone out of business?? - seen it in the paper

i still have the red mk2 but has not left the workshop for a while now - needs a bit of work but i will get back to it someday

This is another that i picked up - an abandoned project which will test me - i.e the wiring loom was pulled out without any markings and cut in several places and some poor sill repairs in its life - full of filler.

what can i say im a mk2 / corrado addict - everytime i see one i must rescue it!! - relations think i need help.

Remind me Gambit where do you know me from??
