Shaun.top.work.mate......outstanding

Hope.to.see.it.up.knockhill.some.day

My.mates.just.sold.his.redtop.saloon.and.wants.me. to.ask.if.you'll.sell.this

(I.think.he.just.had.an.accident.when.he.seen.it)

I.think.we.can.all.guess.the.answer

Cheers Gavinski,

Not promising to have it at Knockhill, definately won't be on the track as I'm not building a track car and unfortunately I won't be selling anytime soon. It's just a hobby for me to be honest.

Cheers anyway,

Shaun.

Tonight, removed all the coolant pipes and radiator, plastic panel around the radiator and heater matrix. Managed to catch all the coollant in a basin, purely down to the long hose along the bottom of the radiator.

Just a few up close pics of how it's looking.













To free up my overflowing magnetic trays, bought this from B&Q earlier today and sorted all the bits and bobs out.



Will have the engine out at the weekend.

Well after a very unproductive day at work I thought I'd make my evening as productive as possible, so the engine's now out.

Used a method that's served me well whilst doing it on my own (ahem) and without an engine crane.

Drop the car on the deck, unbolt the engine, jack the car back up, pull the engine out from under the car. Start to finish, took just over an hour with no problems.









Also went down again to discuss prices for the respray with my painter and I am looking at around ?1200 which I am chuffed with. He is quite excited about doing the job as the majority of his day to day work is newer car and just body repairs.

I am looking forward to this very much when it goes off to paint.

Shaun.
