To be honest it's no where near as loud as my white one hahaha. I'll take you for a spin in the White one when you come down :)

sounds good!

Attached File  20151011_100241.jpg   52.2K   9 downloads I keep forgetting to update this thread, its still coming on slow but sure. I am getting to the point of beginning to spray some of bits that will be hard to get to in the final spray. I still need to weld the one rear arch but decided to concentrate on a few jobs whilst the weather is still warm enough to paint.

Fitted the door back on and swapped out the dodgy steering rack this morning. Only seven bolts on the rack and seemingly easy access to almost all of them suggested an easy job but it still took two hours. I think I could do another in half the time. Now need to set the tracking and get the steering wheel lined up and it's all done. Apart from fitting the rear seatbelts, that's all the mechanical jobs done.

Still plugging away, onto the very last bit of welding now on the drivers side rear arch. Cut the outer section off today expecting a pile of rust that used to be the inner panel but it's solid apart from needing two patches. It will still be a few hours work but much better than expected. Also did some work on other bits that have been welded. So was skimming and painting and cringing while it all went off. Damn cold working outside though.

Will get some as soon as I can. We are in the middle of some building work at the moment so it's having to have a couple of months off and the builders have put a massive pile of bricks in front of the garage.
