Your making me feel guilty for not getting on with mine

I think its a bit low I see a dented front wing on the first mid corner bump on a back road.

nooo dont say that!  When she's on the road i'm going to be driving like miss daisy is in the back for a while to make sure all is well!... ha.. you've got no excuse, you've got a garage!... what have you got to do to yours!?

Also last night i managed to trace my boot leak! was a broken lens where sombody had reveresed into the car when stored.  I had another set of OEMs to replace the ones i smoked.  put them on and all good.  Also after the rewire i had a disco on the same side, you know , when the indicators and lights are on, everything kinda does a dull flash together on that side! turned out to be a loose connection.

Looks loads better on those rear lights

Looks loads better on those rear lights

Yeah i think so too, but will eventually do something a little different with the lights... a little experimental!!!

Ok, so fitted the rear collies, i found it more of a pain than the front, getting the old ones out was nowhere near as easy as getting the new ones in!  all mounts have had a smidge of LM grease on them to help protect the turrets (since they are still mint) and to avoid any squeeky noises appearing)

Taking short cuts!  havent given the inner arches the same TLC as I did the front as I am trying to get it road worthy quickly now... going to have to do the attention to detail stuff after i've MOT'd it.









Nicely mounted with pollys

Couple of shots of the car...

The rears are fully wound all the way up, they are as high as they will go and the car looks slightly lower than before... confused???

.. you've got no excuse, you've got a garage!... what have you got to do to yours!?

I have 2 garages so i have double the non excuse 
To do? Back panel, full respay as not happy with it as i can see the repair and ive never been 100% happy with the re-spray it got, new plastic arches, spolier and bumpers. Maybe even replace the front panel as its never looked straight since i bought the car and its always bugged me, New bottom arms and re-bush everything all round, new brakes, fit the new oem suspension i have had sitting about a while. (It has jamex on it and i find it shakes the shell to bits) Set the injection system up right, fix the MFA mpg thats gone faulty, and many other bits and peaces. The golfs on the list after i re-assemble one of my other projects so i cna get the mk1 in that garage.
