Still not 100% sure if I'll be at the next meet, I'm hoping to be there as it would be nice to meet everyone but may not be able to make it. The things I'm planning to do this weekend/most of next week regardless anyway are:
Fit a new wiper motor,
Fix a few holes,
Fit new window seal,
Fit new arches and side trim (not sure what colour they'll be yet as I'm still undecided.),
Generally clean/spruce up the car,
And attempt to sort out the damage some F***wit did to my rear bumper and lights.
Think thats it, though I'll probably find other things to do weather permitting of course.

Get a matching set of wheels on Fudge again. Stick a new sill on the O / side and all the necessary repairs in that area. Might throw some more paint at the rear end to tart it up, but other than that not much really. Oh, apart from an oil and filter change.  |
