Today I pressed the 75 tourer into daily driver duties, it’s normally shared with the R8 coupe Tomcat but I’ve just sold it......

Fitted a new pair of number plates

So last weekend, Iinstalled the Radio/cruise control kit from my Orginal sterring wheel into the replacement wooden wheel, I have installed.....

Also spent Saturday installing the Wooden Trim and chrome pack for the interior for the car....


Have to say looking good........:D

Managed to get a few jobs done today in-between the rain. Inlet manifold and egr change for my clean spare one and while doing that I change the PCV and air filter plus Pollen filter and Fuel filter which I filled with forte injector cleaner now standing till tomorrow to give it a good run.
Pleased to say that the plenum was nice and dry to fo very happy :}

Well I put the battery back on after 3 months with it being a nice day. Started straight up:bowdown: Took it for a drive to make sure nothing was seized. All good:D Forgot how nice to drive it is:cool:

I took my ZT by the wheel refinishing shop and got an estimate for curbing repair and repainting. When I got up off the floor I booked it in for the 18th of March. At least they will install my summer tyres for free.:D (Positive thought!)

I have done nothing as I don't have it. I am waiting patiently/not so patiently for it to come back from getting the lacquer peel done. Estimate for return is Monday. The same guy just did my bosses car and it was seamless, so I am excited and scared at the same time hahah!:getmecoat::p:

Hello again...
 

I've recently been looking at a NOS MK2 Cavalier hatchback bodyshell, it has some small rust issues but it is unused.

Fitted my spare o/s/f strut and hub to the Connie after my North Coast 500 pothole trip wrecked my suspension due to driving with it's cast iron tyres on 18 inch hairpins. After returning home I noticed the o/s/f was bottoming out on rough surfaces and an investigation showed oil leaking from the shocker. A new spring on my spare strut and all was well again.

Just need to investigate the rear end knock that appeared on the same trip :mad:
