Drove it 25 miles home from my folks place where it had been for the last few months having gearbox replaced, new oil pump, water pump, gaskets etc and a full repaint.

Just in time for the hopefully better spring weather!

Dug all of this crap out of one scuttle corner. I knew it was bad from the day I bought the car.

I got the interior back in, my mum kindly made new seat covers and did an awesome job, I wrapped my dash and shelf in suede. Today's mission is to clean, wrap the bonnet and roof and get ready to get her MOT'd :)

Fitted a new alternator and fan belt.
Plus new headlamp rings, the inners had rusted through; worse than I thought they were. New grill, bonnet strip and grill surround too! Just gotta find out why she won't hold her idle while cold and change the cones and shocks :-)

Did you manage to fit the boots over the TREs, or did you remove them?
