The Dark Wob

The bloke seems spot on. I've built up a canny rapport with him.
He had a lovely blue '63 mustang on the ramps when I went to seem him. The new owner has been totally shafted. The entire underneath was made of patch on top of patch then thick underseal slapped over the top.

Bet it was super shiny and immaculate looking on top too

Aye, how did you guess
That lovely bright blue they did.

Definitely shafted.. if he's been sold a '63 Mustang

There's a Polish auto locksmith on Chillingham Road, Heaton that I've used a few times. I called in to see about getting a spare for the shitroen relay. The thought of losing the only key fills me with dread.
Anyway £180 for a full remote key or £70 for just a standard, chipped blade. Guess which one I'm going for.

Fixed the non functioning rear central locking lock on the back door of the shitroen. Up till now you had to use a key to unlock the rear doors.
Just plugged this connector together and it now works. I wonder why it was disconnected.

It causes it to explode after it's driven 25 miles?

Possibly disconnected when stuff was removed for inspection to decide to write it off?

My Civic came back with most of the boot and wiring loom disassembled after I bought it back from it being written off.

When it was at Copart, the trim and handle were off the back door. By the time I bought it from the folk who bought it from Copart, they’d been reattached.

Suspect there’s more to the story than meets the eye about why it was written off.

Very odd. I've noticed under the rear handle there's a stainless steel plate. I thought it was an anti theft thing. Maybe it's covering some damage from where it was broken into and stolen. Perhaps
