Ill prob clean and polish as well this weekend.

Nothing! - I am going to Crufts this weekend with the girlfriend.
Next weekend however I am fitting a new vacuum advance unit, new heavy duty adjustable tie rods, and some extra bits like spot lamps, gutter trim etc.

I'm going to adjust the clutch and try and fit a few bolts that aren't vital, but better in than out. Then I might start tidtying and cleaning up the interior, so I can start repainting the inside etc. I'm sure I can think of loads more jobs that need doing too!

Really need to try and get the engine set up properly, can't afford a garage this month, so don't really know where to start!

If I can summon up the enthusiasm, then I have a new choke cable to fit to my Clubby. As it involves removing the centre console and dropping the heater down, the chances of the clothes peg being banished are looking fairly slim at the moment! It also needs a wash again, despite only having been done on Sunday!

Don't know what the weather is upto this weekend but I'mma be inside the car cleaning out all the rubbish, hoovering it, and fitting new front seats :D and admiring them >_<. If the weather is nice I'll wash/polish/wax too. Maybe even attempt to fit speaker pods in the front, might treat myself to a Halfords metal drill.

Got yet more wiring to sort on my car, mainly, ciggy lighter, reconnect the central locking motors, renew the cable that feeds the door pins, run some cables down from the interior light to the rear view mirror (couple of ideas planned).

Oh, and wire in a radio harness to the ISO plugs as the so called 'Auto electricion' completley butchered the last one, and to be honest, it was a fire risk! So you could say i've got a busy day planned tomorrow.
