Tried out my new compressor regulator/wter trap by spray puttying a door and the boot lid. Worked great.

Changed the oil, filters and checked the tuning!

Finished building an Oz rack for Maxi23's Rover, to replace the near new POS one he has in (which is stuffed already).

Primered and spray puttied..... Lost about 3 litres of water. It was warm but it sprayed ok.

Painted the door cards in the Estate black and tidied up the dash (tied up the speakers where the stereo was).

And cleaned the garage with a view to a MASSIVE mini weekend coming up: family's away so two days solid working on my MkII shell getting it ready for the painter. Whoop whoop!
