Swapped out the trunk lid with the CHNBL for an earlier model… much smoother look and the paint is almost a perfect match

Well after feeling a really strange knocking coming from the near side front decided to investigate and discovered loose wheel nuts strange thing is not touched it since before the AGM. Anyhow cheap fix. To feel like I did something I cut the roof lining and fitted a new interior light.

re-blasted my brake caliper as it started to go rusty again after the first blasting, so this time I painted it straight away. Plan is to get the first coat on the second one tomorrow and then couple more coats on both by the weekend ready for fitting.

Haven't been able to do anything to my cars in weeks…..
Sucks being old.
But you are right some of my fondest memories of my youth are tied to popular songs on the Radio and the top off.

Few weeks ago I rebuilt my turbo with a hybrid core an yesterday took it back to emerald for a recheck an fine tune of the maps didn't expect any more power as the injectors where maxed at 270bhp with 25psi was going to change them but plan on doing some more things over winter an will need a full remap and no point remapping it twice . got 290 with 18psi and 240 at 8psi he said with new injectors it will make 330+ well happy
