Fitted the new tail light lenses I bought last week.

Which took all of about three minutes.

Tried to finish repairing the skin on one of the estate's doors but my MIG's liner finally gave up the ghost. It was a hardwired torch so I spent most of the afternoon converting it to a euro torch fitting.

Got sick off working on Minis and Mokes and decided to repair the rusted floor in the trailer. Ran out of cutting discs and then remembered I had a plasma cutter tucked away in the workshop - say hello to my little friend

Bought a second hand cigweld 180, just needs a new torch... and it was for $80. Win.
Picked up a new A+ 1275 engine and A series gearbox. Will slowly build a nice strong weapon. Trying to decide between dropping it in my clubby or starting a new project after this one... hopefully the latter

Mwahahaha.

O'doyle rules.

I don't get why you bothered doing all these things three times over?

I would have been happy with just once..

Not today, but yesterday I did 6.7s 0-100 kph. (From Racechrono GPS timer)

Too much wheel spin due to a combination of: no lsd, neg camber, not the best road surface and old crappy tyres for a good time. Going to try with a passenger to see if more ballast helps with traction!
Or maybe less boost....

Got to work all afternoon on it - Bench bled the master cylinders - bled and adjusted the clutch, bled as far as the brakebooster - fitted the front brake shoes and torqued the drive nuts - found a problem with the gear shift Dug out the Gunson Ezybleed Kit and worked out how it goes together (3 lines of instructions on the back of the box - poor as)
Didn't want to set up to do a full brake bleed as it was getting late so left it for another day.

Re-secured the door cards and gave the ol girl a wash ready for the trip to Port Adelaide lol

Washed all of the residual wagga off it. First wash in months.

Painted the spare i'm stuck using for the time being, so it matches the other wheels.

Put new carpets in the front
New door seals

Corrected my 4am pre-moke muster CD player installation, all pretty and nicely hidden now.
Put some cup holders in because my lady friend requested them.
Took the aerial off and had to manufacture a grommet to blank the hole..
Polished the chromework
Took the battery out and put it on charge.
Oil change (should have done the filter too but couldn't remember the number)

Basically a whole lot of little things i've been putting off for ages now!
