17 Yrs Old Today!!

My Baby will be 17 years old this afternoon. She came off the production line at 14:37. What a way to spend your birthday though:

Fingers crossed, she'll soon be back to her best though.

happy birthday to your car, at least you can double check all the wiring of any chaffing, all the hoses, and clean where you have not cleaned before

good luck hope it all goes back well and you have no troubles after.

That gearbox could do with a good clean and shine!
Mine is 18 shortly.

It's been cleaned now, but sadly not polished - I suspect I'll run out of time. Still got the inside of the bell housing to clean, plus the rest of the engine bay, and a shed full of parts to be cleaned.

About time you cleaned that car, look at the state of it !!!!!

hopefully you will get the time to clean some of it before engine goes back in. I have been watching a guy on you tube who doing a dare I say it, is restoring a BMW, worth a look
