Okay, so the BMW comes back from the spray shop on Friday. It won't have windows for at least a few weeks. I have a car cover to keep it dry, but as an added precaution, I was thinking about taping the windows up with some plastic sheeting and gaffer/waterproof tape. My question; is the tape...

It's a bit of a b**ch to change the lot, although I am taking the headlining out, so I might see how easy it is to run one complete pipe all the way down to the sill, like you say. It'll be at Trax, if that's any good? :)

This.

Yep, I'm very excited tbf. One of the first jobs is to sort the drains. This is how they should be laid out: Unfortunately my two front ones have been cut short, so they drain onto the sills/front corners of the floorpan, which is why I've had such extensive corrosion to these areas. This...

Forgot to add this one last night:

Yeah, I've been excited recently, but when those pictures landed on my phone, I got really giddy! There's a million things that need doing, but in all it should be an enjoyable process. Apart from the dash, like Rhys and Jon have said. That won't be pleasant at all.

Heavy excite: Only a few days now :)

Yeah, of course I did. Die.

Ash's meets are absolutely brilliant tbf.

Aye, me and Jon saw it when you arrived, we were doing our rep tingz out in the snow!

Saw the Orbisound for the first time yesterday, looked great tbh!

Fully chuffed to bits tbh! I've got some MIMs that I'll be getting done, as you say, it's going to good use :D Edit, the first time was a joke, I put 7:31 down for a laugh, then I put my first run down, which was 9:10, but I had a massive off right at the end. You then said I could take your...

Awesome! Nice one :D

Did anyone beat my time after I left? ;)

Good stuff. Love this kind of restoration. Not old enough to be classed as ancient, yet old enough to warrant some time and love. will follow this closely :)

So it's bank holiday time, and as per every year, there is a race weekend on at Oulton Park. There is a full weekend schedule, but the race itself is on the Monday, and is usually a good day. I'll be heading down with Jon.G and will be pottering around the pitlane and trackside, so we'll be...

The way you turned around in the carpark was nothing short of heroic!

Some lovely photos tbh. My camera didn't even leave the boot of the car. Much too cold.

Awesome. So so awesome.

VIP car is VIP. Electric seats had me in maximum recline yesterday at the BCM! So awesome.

Rhys. Standard.

Thanks for today, Ash! Really good day, despite the weather and its best efforts to thwart the day.

Same, less than a week now (hopefully anyway).

If I detailed the Clio it would probably fall apart! I'll be fixing the exhaust. I am supposed to be going to help Pete paint his flat. See what the weather is like. This wind will tear the gazebo down, more than anything, I don't want it to collapse onto your car!

You could come and do it under the gazebo, but I can't be certain it'll stand up to this wind :(

Me and Jon were packing for Europe, running a bit late, lots to do. He comes round and finds me applying C4 to the plastic casing on my toolbox. Gobsmacked is the only way to describe his reaction.

Yep, conditions out there are less than perfect, if it hasn't fully cleared, remember to allow a little extra time for travel. Fingers crossed it won't be too bad on Sunday :)

Aye, the NW lot are comfortably the best, so there's nothing to worry about. It's finally Friday, and it's hit me that the Big Meet is this Sunday, so even though we have full arctic conditions out there, I'm really looking forward to the meet!

God yeah! I forgot about that!

Good stuff mate :)
