Took it to the rolling road yesterday where my plucky little 999 produced 50bhp at 5000rpm, he managed to get 20bhp more than when I arrived, the drive home was epic to say the least


The drive back from the rr is always fun. Is that 50bhp at the fly!

I fitted the boot board brackets and sorted out some more little pieces.

Found a pair of mole grips under one of the rear bins. Started scraping the bitumen off the floor to find a relatively nice floor (will be replacing with silent coat).

I gave my seats a clean with a handheld steamer, with cloth attachment, then added some leather cleaner/polish.
Pic before cleaning seat, forgot the after pic, will have to get one.

Been wiring in mk 2 rear lights instead of the mk3. Not quite finished as I ran out of connectors. One more to wire in and I should be good to go.

Got the grille on... took it for a spin for the first time in months. Is running rather well with the exception of stalling when stoppino. Pretty sure it's to do with my sloppy vacuum gauge installation :P

Looked at it. Looked at the Sky. Sobbed and wished I had a garage.
