My two 75's

Under pressure now to have the car ready for next Saturday.

We took advantage of the fine weather and popped down to Garlieston with the caravan for a few days so I now have to work flat out to complete the brake refurb along with the slam panel and projector lights.

On top of that I will have to give the car a full valet not forgetting the MOT

Looking back on the last MOT with the huge list of advisories the only ones that have been valid so far are the rusty brake pipes and two worn tyres.

I have two new tyres fitted and have replaced both front to rear pipes and replaced the bleed nipples. I had a bit of a fright moment today as I thought one of the nipples was going to break in place but with a little perseverance it came loose.

It's another trip to Halfords tomorrow as I need yet more paint. I've decided to re coat the entire underside with Hammerite stone chip shield, I've gone through six cans already and just have a small area at the front to complete.

I just hope the rain keeps away

Sorry about the lack of photos but I will get some on when I get the time.
