rob_bower Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 sounds like a great idea!! i bet there woulkd be all sorts of H&S issuse but there is usually a way round diclaimer signs etc etc!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted April 4, 2011 Author Share Posted April 4, 2011 yeah i know its been done before mate lol, theres another 1 about a mile away but there really pricey and dont have the spray booth. theres not a lot of places that will hire you a spray booth.hes been raking through the health and safety side of it, it does seem to be a headache but im sure he will find away around it lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnboy GT Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think its a magic idea! If like you say, he gets his head round the health and safety aspect of it, you boys should be off and running from UKSC members alone! Keep us updated with whats happenin dude, i would be interested in coming down for a scope! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bucketep91 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Forgot About this thread, the place fell flat on it's arse before he got it open lol there's way too many rules and regulations for it, I do still have access to the place tho;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monsen Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 open up a jap tuning shop n bodyshop??got well excited with this thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 He has nothing to do with it anymore, but I kept in contact with the little Russian dude who works there they have rented most of the unit out to a guy who sells commercial vehicles, but the spray booth is still there along with a couple of ramps. If any of u need the booth I could sort something out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Id actually want to go into business with sumthing like this. Spent 5 years serving ma time as a mechanic fitting poor aftermarket boring ass parts to cars would love to open up a place dealing with jdm's and tuning just dont know if we'd get the business Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Wer in Glasgow are you from? Not seen u around. Aye it was quite exciting at the time wen the idea popped up but after seeing all the hassle involved it would never have taken off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Am from Dumbarton lol U? so im not really up town much and every time i am people are always shouting stuff to me about the car lol thats how i ended up on here some random told me to check this place out lol. Thers not enough of the scottish boys on here talk in this scottish bit lol i know theres at least 3 glanza's in Dumbarton because a few appeared after a got mine lol not implying anything :harhar: ha. Aye well even some sort of unit doin the mechanics on them because the bodywork could be done anywhere but im sure most people struggle to find someone who knows what a glanza is never mind being clued up on it.

StuDoc 72 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Yeah same here those 2 appeared down my way within a few weeks. Although by the people tht cut about in them and by the way they look and sound id guess its only a matter of time that they are in the car park in the poopie lol. Aye I've noticed quite a few people on here from scotland but theres never much chat or banter going on in here between us all. Plus i do think alot of us do stay within a small vacinity around the glasgow area and i do pass Glanza's often id like to know whos drivin them lol although most of the time im driving my other car when i see them lol typical!

_shaun_ Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 yea the 2 that got them down here just buy cars thrash them and got shot of them again. i go up to glasgow quite a bit for shoping and what not only ever spoted 2 glanzas 1 silver 1 in balloch and a black 1 in breahead but even tho black 1 was parked bout 3 spaces from me he just had quik look at car and kept walking with out saying anything so dont think he on here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Aye well i think they are the same the other 1s that are down ma bit are shall we say 'hingin' lol. And u seen a silver 1 in balloch that quite possibly could have been me lol mine looks pretty much standard on the outside part from its pretty low and kei fuji wheels. All the other have stickers on the back windows or duck tail spoilers and some sort of exhuast. Nah well prob not but it would be good to get some kind of chat goin on here with all the local boys that way would be easier to get a hand doin stuff and easier to sell and buy stuff if people are local.

_shaun_ Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 was couple o months ago i spoted it i go up glasgow atleast once a month so if u ever spot a white glanza with toms bumper n green roll cage thats me :harhar: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
