When I go out later I might blast some Elgar at top volume
But it'll more likely be some obscure 70s prog.

Well I've started doing some proper cleaning, got all the green from around the inside of the rear hatch, the fuel flap, off the mirrors, and round sunroof seal etc. Must buy a new toothbrush!
Took the manky insulation stuff off the underside of the bonnet, it's surprisingly clean underneath. Took off IMRC cover and prepared for painting, got a couple of coats on so far. Gonna try and clean all underbonnet for Combe.

I have attacked my rear split rims with a drill.
These are now on the front with summer tyres.
What were on the front are now in the boot and will be attacked with a drill this evening.
Progress, a good thing.

Cleaned under the bonnet as best I can, underside of bonnet, any silver bits like suspension turrets, some back to black on the (surprisingly) black bits and put my painted IMRC cover on (poundshop special 'chrome'!)
Today I have mostly been dying the bottom of my door cards black already done my parcel shelf only round the back seats to do,
Getting my handling woes sorted out at last and replaced both brake light bulbs cos' both had blown, Weird

Well the other day I fitted some phono leads to uncle fester and today I had a go at speakers and speaker leads, needless to say it didn't quite work out right speaker cable was too thick so had to swap for some cheaper thinner stuff, midbass speakers are a tad too deep and fowl the glass when you wind window down, couldn't figure out how to route cable out of doors but sorted it I think just before it went dark, managed to mount my JL audio tweeters in the same location the Ford ones we're in "result" looks stock (old ones just popout)
Managed to crimp finger with pliers trying to remove trim, bloody car is harder to work on than cougar! :banghead:
