New brake discs/pads.
The rear disc was unbeliveable rusty...

With a journey from South Wales I shall probably be looking for some very nice car wash guys to give it the once over too, if I have time.

Yes hope it's dry and sunny or the hard work is lost in the travelling

Fitted my Chrome grill also removed the crowns and put her serpents back on,

Then sat and drooled.....

Visited the 'Member Donor' car with Good_Mojo as he was after a few bits and bobs

It's sad to see a car like this, but it was a genuine case for a donor, and has helped many with parts

They look like high intensity fog lights Pete, I rather think I'd be unhappy to be behind you in the rain

Any option on toning them down slightly ?

Confirmed that the minor gearbox leak noted on the MOT was indeed due to the drain plug not being fully tightened...simple fix.

Also concluded that the exhaust rattle at idle is due to the replacement back box being slightly too large/long. Put on long-term wish list.

Finally gave her a well deserved wash!

that's just the lighting Brian, the upper lights are tails and the DRL's are tuned to 50% until the brakes are depressed and then they go 100%...
the intensity then is very close to the brake lights.

The video camera on the phone makes them look much brighter than they are...
