Has Anyone got any selling platform ideas I tried folksy years ago was shite not enough traffic and was full of really cheap nasty Woodturning and didn't want be trying sell my higher end perfectly executed finished stuff there might be better now but I need clear out load of old stock any my crafty friends help #etsyuk #makers #crafters #artists #artisans by @picaforge

The Silver flying nugget has suspension sorted need a big rest now for a few days absolutely knackered probably be last car I work on just can't manage it anymore. Few more modifications needed rear disc conversion be good won't be going to mad as be for sale when finished hopefully unless decide to keep it but very impractical really can't get me fishing gear in it for start. Julie loves it so might be kept who knows by @picaforge

Next job after shocks is do under seal protection as it's mint underneath rare for a fiat that's for sure #fiatseicento #italian #customcars #smallcar #italiancars by @picaforge

Yeah fuck you Etsy started new shop after old one got taken down due to someone hacking it. I realised why I never bothered opening one again £18.72 fees off £49 sale is just ridiculous im just done with it I don't mind paying fees but that's ridiculous. I only opened it get rid of old stock but honestly rather burn it then get ripped off by Yanky Company. The other selling platforms charge less but not as affective I could stick prices up but for me it's about people having chance to own a bit of Artwork not just rich folks. So when get money through be shutting it down robbing bastards to decide what I'm doing #etsy #robbery #fuckyou #artist #artwork by @picaforge

When your little fiat Seicento starts banging when driving knackered front shock lucky I was going change it anyway have set of uprated and lowered shocks in workshop brought as job lot other month now it's off road for week have to do rears and as it's off road will fit performance exhaust and manifold to it will also hopefully get time to uprate the brakes. I kind of love hate doing cars I love doing the work but hate it as I'm so messed up physically it's just so painful. It's funny people see you out there doing shit make snide comments but don't see you in the evenings when your in so much pain your shaking and feel sick but that's because people are CUMTs it's case of having to do stuff because got no money to throw at mechanic to do it and also because you don't want get ripped off as so many useless wankers out there #fiatseicento #mechanic #customcar #italiancars #disability by @picaforge

Metro City done ready for sale all running driving needs 4 tyres windscreen wipers for mot but I can't be arsed spend anymore on it loads work done to ported flowed head twin choke Nikki carb lcb exhaust manifold custom exhaust system all welded under sealed few minor rust bits to do one corner of bonnet one bit rear drivers side window couple bits on boot lid 1988 car £2200 OnoCollection Rye East Sussex no knob ends or idiots #austinmetro #classiccars #britishcars #modifiedcars #classiccarforsale by @picaforge

So the Metro is coming along nicely now pretty much ready for mot test give take few things. It's been modified to make it far more suitable for modern roads and traffic the engine has had head ported different Exhaust manifold exhaust uprated fuel pump modified inlet manifold and Twin Choke progressive carb. So when modified I didn't really think about how little room there is from top carb to bonnet. So I fabricated new plenum chamber to go on top of carb and now made fully sealed insulated cold air system the inlet will come out behind front grill which will allow lots cold air in and should give it a few extra bhp. Took me way longer than it should of but I'm pretty Anal when it comes to making stuff like this I'm pretty happy I'm hoping to get away without putting slight lift on bonnet I'm actually looking forward to getting this on road now #classiccar #britishleyland #austinmetro #britishcars #austinrover by @picaforge
