Right finished school now so bored as fuck. Wanna do some sort of little project on the car this week. Say max. cost of £50 as well. Thinking of doing a boot build -don't really want one - but something to do and could always sell it on i guess. Also was thinking of some neon illumination inside the car - say door cards, under seats etc. But was thinking of doing it with led's from maplins to save money! Anybody got some different ideas? Nothing that requires huge amounts of skill cos im a bit of a muppet sometimes!

well i havent got much money at the moment, just bought digital camera and going on hols soonish. Head gasket has already been changed. I think my exhaust gasket/manifold is buggered, is that a hard job to do - bearing in mind it would be my first venture into engine mechanics.

That's not a hard job, actually one of the baby jobs if you wanna learn engine mechanics. Best start learning and you'll save the pennies doing it yourself.
