well the bootlid is quite rusty so i think i will replace it with a fibreglass one, and perhaps then get plastic windows aswell. could then chop out the insides of the doors.

yeah horrible wet weather. broke clutch. be pressure plate again for the 3rd time. some wet vids later. my mate with vx220 that he turbo'd was there. got a 13.1 before it chucked it down. i got a 12.9 in the wet with a 2nd gear set off and a 60ft of nearly 2.7. awesome.

going to attempt to build a clutch again as this one lasted a year. then save up for a twin plate. costly business sadly.

polo g40 johnny is on with. instead of supercharged 1300, its turbo'd and bike bodied and got management to fit. runs charge cooler then an intercooler which is quite nice. looking forward to seeing and hearing that finished.

then as the corsa is waiting fixing, maybe do it next saturday, decided i would treat the vectra a bit.



went shopping



took some wheels off



got busy with the hammerite





while that was drying applied some amounts of polish that i got in a 2 for 1 thing from halfords. some autogylm retorer for scratches and some deep shine stuff for darker colour cars.













came out really well. then it rained on the way home. didnt bother with a beading shot.

adam set off an improvised explosive device after i had left sadly. looked fun.
