  • Back in a Mk3...
Well I have done a few jobs since my last update..... the car has being fully serviced, new aux tensioner and belts, new scuttle tray and aero wiper arms plus you can see the sun shades on these pictures (unlike last time!)... and it now says PAST IT on the back!!



Next on the list.......
I have a battery cover (that needs modding to fit) but will tidy the engine bay that bit more, so either I sell and get the correct one or I modify what I have?
Wheel refurb (darker spokes and polished rim?)
and a proper valet (I've damaged my shoulder so I can't polish at the mo!!)

and len the grille is a kamei (ebay.de and was cheap!!). fk do one similar for little £££

Thanks Boney!

Will have to have a think about that grille.


Aero wiper blades? Halfords?
Need some new ones myself.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I have started to make the car look a bit better and here's the first part  (after several months of being unable to do much heavy work due to a dicky shoulder)







I did my old wheels the same colour and decided to use again (as my engine covers are the same colour).

oh and she passed her m.o.t a few weeks back, so another 12 months of motoring for nowt! (except a 60p bulb)

and to come..... well she's going to get some much needed paint correction done shortly.  :cool:
