And I will definitely get pics up of them when I get them installed, along with the triple Heuer timer set Ive made - this car is getting expensive!

I've dismantled a pair of vents and removed the "balls" which I'm sending off to be vacuum metalised - a chrome effect coating for plastic. Should look brand new when done. The justification of "because I want them" is the one I'm using funnily enough ;)

It's not a complete car, its a semi restored shell with a not very good cover on it that doesn't completely cover it.

when you buy 7.5 brake disc conversion kits dose most off it come pre-assembled ? feeling lazy on a Sunday and packing bearings and every thing sounds like effort! :)

Its ******* :/ ebay should do a thing where if you bid on a car and you win when it takes the money straight away, so people can't back down!

Had a spare afternoon so stuck Bob the Cooper in the shade for some TLC. Interior leather clean and feed, dried out the carpets, patched up some rust (underside) and stone chips (bonnet), Checked over the engine, give it a bit of a clean up. And then spent hours polishing. Polished with the normal Autoglym Super resin polish, then my normal colour enriched polish by Turtle wax. Then came the protective was stage, Always used "Turtle wax"s Metalic car wax, been good but couldn't fi...
