@ Mohsin bhai
I shall email you probably by this evening.
@ Buksh
Sorry I did not get the opportunity to pmail you. Lots of issues tying me down.
I picked up the balance amount outstanding from Khayam myself. Im hoping the lady leaves the city soon.
About the 'lady' I have an idea perhaps you would consider it. Why not hire the 'ustad' who did up Rehman bhais Spitfire????
I think that he would be the best possible person to do the little bodywork there is. And once you are back in Lahore you could make arrangements to have it done in your backyard!
@ Neurosurgeon and all
The clock is ticking for the poor tin snail.......the gallows are around its neck........
Im expecting a call from the scrapper this afternoon as I had asked him to hold it........
Seems like it would be yet another sad day for me.......
Shershah should burn to the ground (all of it!).......there is this area where cars are actually cut up where there are a number of guys who break cars only for the steel and stuff and not for parts. Thus a car is as good as completely wasted if it ends up in their clutches. It does make a bit of sense when the other people scrap cars for steel AND sell the reusable parts. Helps to keep other cars alive.
Yesterday I saw THREE beetles being murdered simultaneously. One even had perfect paint.
Tried to buy some stuff but the scrapper there is only interested in throwing parts in the scrap pile to be melted.....he asks for stupid sums which I cannot pay (how about a 'fixed' Rs 5000 for a pair of beetle front fenders a rear bonnet and some bits and bobs?) and rather sells the stuff at 38Rs per Kg for the steel. Stupid man.
@ Buksh
Sad news.......the scrapper described above broke a complete pre 67 bus a week ago. Not even a single nut remained from the gem.....people told me he just smashed all the glass to smithereens.....curse him....
Best regards.
