As some of you may know I think I started too much stuff on my car at
once,
but here is a list of what I am doing and what I have done.
brake fix, DONE
bonnet de-rust, Half Primed
bonnet hinge straightening,
halogen conversion, DONE
floor pan paint strip de rust and repaint,
dash revamp, Just got it peeling veneer stuck down,
re-wire, Just need to get the right tape to replace,
audio amp addition, DONE
voltage regulator addition for CD player, Just need the right connector
vacuum gauge addition, Drilling hole in NVGC dash tonight.
instrument service, DONE
and a vacuum of the carpets. Last on the list.
So as you can see, I'm getting there. This all started because I was
weighting for parts for the brakes, so I thought I might as well do
something else, first mistake.
Next Jobs are,
Replace the peace's of wood, mounting the gearbox to the car.
Re Bush suspension, new shocks all round.
New steering gaiters.
Overhaul back brakes, and master cylinder.
Overhaul overdrive, and spare gearbox.
Overhaul spare engine, anyone near me want to swap a Dolly 1500 for a
Spit 1500.
More rust killing.
Make some speakers.
Go and show off on holiday.
