Little update! Installed some gas strut tailgate lifters from a Seat Ibiza as bonnet lifters  :smiley: thanks to the handy thread on here! Hopefully painting the rear quarters next weekend so watch this space! Then it will be the rear doors, then the front doors, then the front end and stage one will be complete..............

Drastic changes will be made before Christmas comes around! Hopefully I'll be getting a load of well overdue paint work and mods sorted towards the end of october so watch this space :evil:

A couple of little updates! No new paintwork as of yet but since last time I have bought a bonnet bra which I don't know if it will be staying or not and some new rear lights as I'm bored of the police giving me dirty looks when deciding weather or not to pull me over :/ Hopefully I'll pull my finger out of my ass and paint up my car before Christmas. I'm thinking of a full repaint now as I am sick of driving round in a half finished car. I have always loved black................

Pulled off the starter motor today, not realising the long bolts holding it on also go through the front engine mount! Had a bit of a shock when the engine shifted about an inch and a half lol! I'm gonna strip it down, clean and re grease everything and see if that fixes it. There is no way I want to buy a new one unless I really have to! Now, where has that jack gone?.............

Gave the starter motor a good clean and grease this morning and whacked it back on! No luck though, It just made some funny noises and died again  :cry: Oh well, looks like I'll be getting a new one.
