Sleepless nights begin!

Post by Toddman »

Waved a nervous "see you later" to my white valver this afternoon :(
No disrespect to anyone but I just do not likepeople other than a couple of close friends working on my car but sometimes needs must.

Gone away for some rust removal and a few little jobs while stripped down.

We did the water pump, tensioners and cambelt then I did oil and filter, plugs,cap and arm. Air filetr after she is home fro the spray booth LOL!

Dash and screen coming out for rust killing plus screen is delaminating and some idiot drilled holes in the dash for tweeters LOL!
Please call me Luke :)

It is a worry when the car is not within your sight but if in good hands it helps. I know where you are at though. :(

You will be glad to get it back.
Prefer it to the Lamborghini, like Signor Gandini!

Hi Dave
Yes we do get attached to our cars especially these characters LOL!

Dropped the original alloys of today for a refurb and new rubber.
Upholsterer coming in approx. 2 weeks to tidy up my Monza seats so slowly getting everything cobbled together

The wheels wil probably be the first part finished, then the seats should be all tidied by the upholsterer all ready for the car.
Realistic goal is sometime in September for completion.
