    An early finish from work and a bit of sun meant I could break out the wet vac. Glad I did. Some serious dirt!

    I have dents in my car. Do you mind me asking what it cost you? I need a rough idea of cost so I don’t get rinsed.

    I thought the same but the ebay part thing said they fitted and I have fitted them too. Used some lithium grease and there is no clunking. Yet

    After pestering @DiamondPerformance for an age on whatsapp I got down to 3000grit wet and dry , a lot of warm soapy water then some cutting compound which I applied by hand. For an amateur effort its a solid 8 out of 10 and I dont think you would notice the repair unless I pointed it out. Sure...

    I tried to get the front bumper off but the nut was spinning the bolt and stuck. Got fed up so painted the brace between airbox and ECU. Then played with my new parrot remote control so I can actually hear it. Rock and roll!

    This car is the gift that keeps giving. Yesterday I fixed the drivers side check strap and a few rattles. For my service to the restoration of the car the boot lock is now clicking and won’t open. Investigation required I think!

    Todays weather has been sunny. I have a replacement weather strip I have two check straps. The replacement one looked too long, but looks can be deceptive. It fitted well and I didnt have a wrestle with the doorcar putting it back together. The door is now proper stiff to open and close in a...
