Hi all

Been at home last week, so I decided to tidy up the car a little and sort out some outstanding jobs.

Got the clutch replaced (original was good for 91,000 miles) and new Master and Slave cylinders. Also got the Prop. Doughnut replaced whilst it was in the garage.

One job left to do and that is to replace the Electric Aerial. Got one from ECP in matt black just need to fit it.

After all that, I thought I had better give her a wash as itÔš's been a week or so. Started with the interior and a full Ԛâ€ËaGliptoneÔš' treatment, including all the other leather bits. Then shampooed all the carpet and mats before a proper wash and polish.

Hope you like the pics.

I made up a German badge to replace my ///M grill badge.

Cleaned up my wheels and washed and polished all the centres. Also got hold of another BBS centre cap (one was bust) and transferred the locking mechanisms to my Ԛâ€ËamintÔš' centre cap.

I also managed to fit a second interior light in the boot (thanks Tylerma) and cleaned and fitted the Interior Panel for the boot (bargain from SCOTT325SE).

Fitted the front Fire Extinguisher which I bought at Gaydon but also mounted one that does actually work in the boot.

Hi all

Thanks for the comments.

craigieeb
- I think it needs lowering too :D . I am waiting until it's time to replace the stock shocks/springs and then it's the Zone H & R Cup Kit - 35mm. -60/40 is a bit extreme for my tastes.

6potWil6pot - Cheers Will, hard work but worth the effort, I need a better camera to show it off properly!

318-is
-Cheers. The light is simply run off the original one. I got one at a scrappy and then took both out and wired them together before reinstalling. Cost about a fiver in total for a nice and effective mod.

Jimbob - Thanks. Yes, this is Splondike's old motor.

rare - Thanks, I love red sports too but they oxidise so twice as much washing and polishing.

:cool:

All you need now is some blue lights and a siren. Then your a proper fire engine
