Steering cowl restoration nearly done (for George when he gets home). Wheel bearing caps banged, shaped and painted (for Dot). I know that no-one will see them but I know what they looked like.

George is still at the upholsterers.

got my minitastic springs in the post. Fitted the rear ones and will fit the front's later in the week/weekend.

I came home and the package that they came in had been put under the door mat. Funny because the box was a bit large to be under a door mat!

Mucked around with the wiring and alarm system. A lot of work to go but thats the fun of a universal setup I guess.

Then I stared at my rust and mind powered it to disappear. It didn't.
