    Ill add your name to the list of people looking for it so. That's good to hear you got the r32 done. I'm between the Vento and Cefiro at the moment, I got brand new sills for the Vento. They are gonna be a basterd to do!!

    Right job is the way to go alright, although it passed its last nct the way it was, shouldnt be a trouble passing it again

    Got a few hours of sunshine so I had a go at sealing the AC holes in the bulkhead.



    I had an old bonnet at home from a Ford Escort that I used




    And there ya go, hole sealed.



    I'll put some seam sealer around it and then a bit of filler to bring it flush with the bay. Hopefully it'll be painted very soon.

    I'm stuck for colours in the engine bay, I had origionally wanted to spray it Midnight Purple but I think it would be a bit lost and too dark as it's a colour that needs to be seen i.e. Spray the outside of the car MNP

    Then I was thinking Kawasaki Green as it's a really bright colour and really stands out.

    The final colour I'm thinking is a really bright blue.

    Can anyone help me out??

    Got a decent amount of work done today, had a couple of pinholes in the filler so smoothed them out and got it into the shed to finish off the bay. I said I'd give the painting a go myself, it didn't turn out too bad either which is great!! I'll get the car back to my house tomorrow and finish off a few bits and then I can start putting it back together

    I would but Anna-Marie's dad asked me to bring it home after it's painted cos the yard is full and he needs the extra space, he said I can bring the engine crane home. Just having the breakfast now and heading over in a few.
