Sorted out the plumbing on the FBH, rerouting the coolant pipe under the battery box.

Refitted the front bumper, which was annoying me ever since I had refitted some months ago. (Uneven shut lines).

Put a hair drier to one of the side lights seeing as I had the bumper off, to remove condensation that has been in it since I acquired the car.

Looks fantastic! Is that Silver Sparkle on the wheels? Were they painted of powder coated?

So yesterday I took the ZT-T on a 360km drive through rain and wind to do some business out of town. She looked so forlorn sitting in the garage all dirty that I left her behind and took the ZT180+ to work today, as it's shiny clean and today has been a bright sunny day.

Yes they're silver sparkle as I got them from stocktake. I was going to have them done chrome effect but in the end decided to leave well alone. One wheel was a little off colour so a friend of my bosses just flashed it back to mnh for me.

I didnt know about him before so may well use him for my bumper lacquer issue later.

I took Frosty along for his annual MOT check, and I'm pleased to say a clean bill of health was announced

So a splash of colour to accompany me to the Whitley Bay show in a couple of weeks time

Put some trim back into Kim, and the centre console. All made more difficult because of a multitude of wires superfluous to requirements. A previous owner had a phone doodah in it so all the wiring for the phone, mute box etc. needed a place to hide before I could get the units back into the console

I envy you those leather seats. (Her indoors prefers the fabric) All looking good now. Mike
