Not bad mate, just struggling with an idle issues where it cuts out after around 30 seconds, cleaned the ISCV and even tried a replacement with no luck. Also im not strong enough to remove the lambda sensor ha ha :D

lol lamba sensors are always tight to get off, try locking two spanners together to give you more leverage

Wonderful car there, I really miss mine!

over the past week i have done the rear wheel bearings and started to take my side skirts and arches off the car.
i did not know what to expect as we all know it hides alot but im happy with the car its solid just needs a Little welding which is getting done on the weekend. So i started to rub and treat any surface rust that i could see and started to underseal when happy









had to drill out the rivets i have some stainless nuts a bolts on order






arches all round are in great condition





this is the bit that needs welding going to cut this all out and re plate






the goods
